Tenille Arts recently announced her upcoming to be honest album will be available May 3, 2024, and the new single, “So Do I,” was released today. The mesmerizing song was written by Demi Lovato, Laura Veltz, Sasha Sloan. King Henry also produced the track, which will be available on the Dreamcatcher Artists label and distributed through STEM. Pre-Order/Save/Add HERE.
“I thought the to be honest album was done when I wrote the title track, until I realized something was missing,” confessed Tenille. “I had been trying to communicate what I was going through in a song for over a year…but felt like I kept coming up short. The beautiful and humbling thing about writing music is sometimes someone else can say it better than I can. I heard ‘So Do I’ and it perfectly said exactly what I was thinking and experiencing. I am so grateful to Demi Lovato, Sasha Sloan, Laura Veltz, and King Henry for writing this song and allowing me to record it. Somehow my most personal song is one I didn’t even write, which is one of the reasons I love music and songwriters so much. I hope that anyone who listens to this song and relates to it knows that they aren’t alone in what they’re going through… because so do I.” Tenille gives fans a peak into her personal journal in the “So Do I” lyric video. She will celebrate the release of the single by performing it on the hallowed stage of the Grand Ole Opry this evening. A week later, she heads north to open the Canadian leg of Luke Bryan’s Mind of a Country Boy Tour 2024. More information is available HERE.

Get ready to fall in love with the state of Tennessee when you listen to Taylor Sanders new single, “Tennessee Love.” Released today, April 5th, this song explores themes of love, longing, and a sense of home. Sanders’ rise in the country music scene has been nothing short of sensational. Getting airtime on prestigious radio stations across the country, and even going international, Taylor’s authenticity and talent has caught the attention of some leading media outlets such as The Tennessean, All Country News, Countrypolitan Magazine, MusicCrowns, and Buzz Music. “Tennessee Love” is a love letter to the simplicity and charm of small-town life in Tennessee. This melodic anthem narrates a search for love amidst the bustling streets of Los Angeles and the concrete jungle of New York City. But, like a magnet, it is the pull of Tennessee’s gentle breezes and welcoming smiles that beckon her back home. Taylor mentions that, “despite venturing far and wide to pursue my dreams, I always find myself drawn back to Tennessee where I discover a sense of belonging, comfort, and love that I cherish so deeply”. Originally a girl from Kentucky, Tennessee has always had a place in Taylor’s heart as this is where she truly calls home. Sanders began singing at a very young age, as her parents were the ones to recognize her raw natural talent for music. Taylor’s parents nurtured and supported that talent and eventually assisted in making her into the woman she is today. Reminiscing, Taylor says, “I actually made my debut performance at my kindergarten graduation, where I sang the ‘Star-Spangled Banner,’ and by the age of 9, I had already recorded my first album!” With the parents that Taylor had, it was impossible not to become the star she was turning into- “I believed I could make a music career because my mom believed in me” says Sanders. While her parents were a big inspiration for her love of music, Taylor also grew up listening to a wide range of artists who have also shaped her career over the years. Notes of powerful women such as Carrie Underwood, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey, and even Beyonce can be found woven into her music. “It is a rich tapestry of influences that fuels my passion for music and shapes my unique artistic identity,” Taylor says as she reflects on her music. Recently, Sanders has been elated to share the stage with big artists like Larry Gatlin and The Gatlin Brothers, as well as some other pop-up performances in Nashville. Over this past year, her attention has been devoted to crafting and recording my highly anticipated debut country album, all while becoming a new mother to her first baby boy. As Taylor takes this time to recuperate and prepare herself for the exciting season filled with performances, tours, and album promotions, she is eagerly looking forward to taking the stage at my upcoming listening/release party at the iconic CMA building. Her favorite part about performing is the storytelling and self-expression you can get through the mediums of music and dance. “One of the most memorable performances of my career was at Nissan Stadium. The grandeur of the venue, coupled with its location in the heart of Music City, made it a truly unforgettable experience.” Although Sanders is an extremely talented artist, that is not all that she is. She uses her platform for good as she breaks barriers in music as well as in her movement to support The Melanoma Research Foundation. “As a survivor of melanoma myself, I understand the importance of early detection in fighting cancer. My journey has inspired me to not only advocate for melanoma research but also to support the broader fight against all types of cancer. It's remarkable how breakthroughs in melanoma treatment often pave the way for advancements in treating various other cancers.” Tragically, Taylor’s mother passed away this January following a stem cell transplant for her myelofibrosis, a form of bone marrow cancer. This profound loss has fueled Sanders’ determination to continue raising funds for research, promoting the development of new treatments, and increasing awareness for early detection strategies across all cancer types. Whether you are supporting her cause to raise awareness, enjoying her music, or simply supporting Taylor herself, she deeply appreciates and thanks all her fans for accompanying her on this remarkable journey.

Scheduled for release on April 5th under Taylor’s label, 22Visionz, this single promises to captivate hearts.

Join Taylor as she continues to share her passion and talent with the world! “Gregarious, charming singer-songwriter (Billboard)” Abby Anderson releases her anthemic, hopeful new song “Bright Side of Blue” today. Written by Abby Anderson, Bonnie Dymond and Clara Calaway and produced by Bonnie Dymond, the song chronicles Abby’s journey overcoming past struggles and growing into a place of confidence and power. The stormy, deep production is juxtaposed with bright, positive lyrics that remind listeners of the light at the end of the tunnel during trying times. “Bright Side of Blue” is the first single off Abby’s highly anticipated new six-song project due this summer. Listen to the track HERE.
“I’ve had some low lows in my life. Moments I wouldn’t care to re-live but very thankful for because it taught me there’s always a smile. Always a reason to keep going,” said Abby. “It’s now a skill and practice I take with me everywhere I go and in everything I do. You can knock me off my feet and put me in the bluest of blues, but I’ll always find a way to get to the bright side of it.” It was also announced today that Abby will have two headline shows in June. She will play at the Bowery Ballroom in New York, NY, on June 1, and at the Troubadour in West Hollywood, CA, on June 6. Tickets are available now HERE.

Runnin' Outta Time serves as the long-awaited follow-up to the artist praised by Billboard, Rolling Stone, Boston Herald, The Tennessean, People , and more. With the surprise release of two instant grat tracks, “Parking Lot” and “True North,” Rose offers a first listen of her forthcoming six-song project, full of her signature “swaggering mix of hip-hop and Country” (Nashville Lifestyles).
“All I've ever wanted to do is write and perform songs just like these,” shares Rose. “In my opinion, these six songs are the most honest and accurate to who I am as an artist, and it doesn't happen without a creative village that believes I have something special to say to the world. It's been a minute since I've released music, so it's SO good to finally say that my songs 'True North' and 'Parking Lot' are out now, and my new EP Runnin' Outta Time is available on May 10. I can't wait for y'all to hear what I've been working on.” The upcoming EP promises to reveal Rose at her most personal and honest, bundling her beliefs and contradictions into six new songs that explain who she is, where she came from and where she's heading. As a co-writer on each track, the EP packed with Saturday-night energy and Sunday-morning reflection will serve as the perfect soundtrack for the intense push and pull in Rose's life, and a potent reminder of how important it is to take a breath and focus on the things that matter most. Today marks the release of “True North” and its official music video which finds a calming melody floating alongside the distinctiveness of Rose's signature vocal. Co-written by Rose, Trannie Anderson, Hillary Lindsey and David Garcia, it cleverly takes the negative connotation of age-old saying “when it all goes south” and flips it into the place full of nostalgic embrace – home. A vivid, map dot lyric travels the picturesque backdrop of her home state of Georgia, leaning refreshingly into a nostalgic vulnerability that places the listener in the shotgun seat of a southern escape, driven by the idea of slowing down life and revisiting your roots to reconnect your center. Accompanying “True North” is “Parking Lot,” a song laced in an addictive melodic drive that sees Rose adding her uniquely geared vocal to a fresh party anthem that instantly evokes a memory of your favorite coming of age moments. Proven to be a fan favorite in her live sets, the lyrics transport listeners to the carefree moments of their youth, when everything surrounded that small town gravel hub. Namechecking Keith Urban in her own 2009 memory, Rose showcases the very foundations of her love for Country music. Placing a reminiscing smile on your face, you relive your own “parking lot” stories of the life lived outside the painted lines that your parents never knew about, but that you can't ever forget. RUNNIN' OUTTA TIME TRACK LIST: 1. “The Goal” (Lily Rose, Paul DiGiovanni, Trannie Anderson, Seth Ennis) 2. “Back Pew” (Lily Rose, Emily Weisband, Andy Albert, Paul DiGiovanni) 3. “Parking Lot” (Lily Rose, Lindsay Rimes, John Pierce) 4. “True North” (Lily Rose, Trannie Anderson, Hillary Lindsey, David Garcia) 5. “Two Flowers” (Lily Rose, Blake Pendergrass, Paul DiGiovanni) 6. “Runnin' Outta Time” (Lily Rose, Lydia Vaughan, Blake Pendergrass, David Garcia) After a bucket list 2023 that included Rose featuring on Diplo's Country project, Thomas Wesley: Chapter 2 – Swamp Savant with EDM-Country banger “Sad in the Summer,” the artist with “a charismatic voice and killer Country hooks” (Hollywood Life) made television appearances on NBC's The Voice and ABC's Good Morning America. Throughout the summer and fall, the Georgia native toured alongside stylistic maverick Sam Hunt and Country pop-icon Shania Twain. Recently performing at Country 2 Country (C2C) across the pond last month, Rose nears the completion of her third consecutive year on the road with Hunt. As summer approaches, she'll share her new music on the road with Cole Swindell and Luke Bryan and at some of the summer's hottest fairs and festivals.

Today, Sony Music Nashville/Columbia Records singer/songwriter Megan Moroney returns with her new song “28th of June” — a quietly gut-punching piano ballad that marks one of her most vulnerable offerings yet. Go here to listen to “28th of June” now.
Written by Moroney, Ben Williams, Mackenzie Carpenter, and Micah Carpenter, “28th of June” serves as the follow-up to “No Caller ID” — a January release that quickly set the record for the biggest Country female song debut in streams in the U.S., amassing 8.4 MILLION global streams in its first week alone. Like its predecessor, “28th of June” brings Moroney’s nuanced yet powerful songwriting to a bittersweet reflection on a broken relationship. This time around, the Georgia-bred artist explores one of the more devastating aspects of moving on from a breakup — the undeniable pain that hits when your would-be anniversary rolls around and stirs up so many hurtful memories (from the first verse: “Drank a bottle of red and opened up another/Danced around the room holding onto each other/Like we were never gonna let go/I was too naïve to know”). Recorded at the legendary Blackbird Studio in Nashville and produced by her frequent collaborator Kristian Bush — who also helmed production on her widely lauded debut album LUCKY — “28th of June” sets Moroney’s storytelling to a breathtakingly sparse, piano-driven arrangement adorned with plenty of lovely details, including graceful steel-guitar tones and Moroney’s delicate background vocals. As she narrates all the different dimensions of her heartbreak (the sting of nostalgia, the empty comfort of sleeping alone in her ex’s shirt, the raw betrayal of being replaced), Moroney ultimately infuses the song with all the dreamy sensitivity and unflinching honesty that audiences have come to expect from one of Country’s brightest young stars. The latest turn in what’s sure to be another powerhouse year for Moroney, “28th of June” arrives as Country’s It Girl has two singles in the Top 25 on Country radio: “I’m Not Pretty” (the magnetic opening track to LUCKY) and “Can’t Break Up Now” (her recent collaboration with Old Dominion). “28th of June” also follows the release of an all-acoustic version of “No Caller ID” from the Emo Cowgirl Live Sessions —check it out here. Along with dramatically expanding her following on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, “No Caller ID” earned raves from the likes of Rolling Stone, American Songwriter, Taste of Country, and Holler (who hailed it as “enchantingly hazy” and noted that the song “pivots around the poignant juxtaposition between the sweet, intricate instrumentation and the incisive, melancholic edge of the lyricism”). Next month, Moroney will embark on THE LUCKY 2.0 TOUR — a headlining run that sold out just five minutes after tickets went on sale in January. Solidifying her status as an in-demand headliner, her third consecutive headline tour kicks off on April 19 in Dothan, Alabama, and is currently set to continue through July 26 in Aspen, Colorado, with special guest Logan Crosby as support. Soon after completing that run, she’ll head overseas for the GEORGIA GIRL TOUR: a 15-date headlining tour of the UK and Europe, beginning on September 4 in Cardiff, UK, and wrapping up on September 27 in Zurich, Switzerland. This spring and summer, Moroney will also take the stage at stadiums across the country as support for Kenny Chesney’s SUN DOWN 2024 TOUR, in addition to appearing at high-profile festivals such as Stagecoach in April and Lollapalooza in August. For full tour dates and ticketing information, visit www.meganmoroney.com/. Thanks in part to the massive success of LUCKY — 2023 LP that propelled her to best-of-the-year lists from major outlets like The New York Times and Rolling Stone and delivered her 2X PLATINUM, No. 1 breakout “Tennessee Orange” — Moroney has emerged as one of five artists leading the nominations for the 2024 CMT Music Awards with three nods: Female Video of the Year (“I’m Not Pretty”), Collaborative Video of the Year for “Can’t Break Up Now” with Old Dominion, and Digital-First Performance of the Year (“I’m Not Pretty” from CMT Digital Campfire Sessions). The fan-voted award show airs live from Austin, Texas, on April 7 at 8 PM ET/PT on CBS, and will be available to stream live and on-demand on Paramount+ (vote at vote.cmt.com). Moroney is also vying for three 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards; Best New Artist (Country), plus all-genre, fan-voted categories Favorite Debut Album and Social Star, broadcasting live April 1 at 8/7c on FOX (go here to vote now). |
