CRAIG MORGAN’S UPCOMING ALBUM MY COUNTRY CELEBRATES THE HEART, SOUL AND SOUND OF AMERICA

Long before his more than two decades of success as a country-music artist, Craig Morgan answered a higher calling — serving our country in the United States Army and Army Reserve. During America’s 250th birthday year, Craig will release My Country, a musical celebration of our great nation as well as the genre that speaks to the soul of its people. Available on November 6 ahead of Veterans Day, Craig’s upcoming 11-song album — My Country (BBR Music Group / BMG Nashville) — displays his unwavering patriotism for the Stars and Stripes with songs like “Long May You Wave” and honors his late friend, Toby Keith, with a passionate and personal cover of “American Soldier.”

Craig’s comprehensive catalog has formed the soundtrack of our lives and his newest song, “I’m Country Music,” available today ahead of the album’s release is no exception. The song, which Craig has previewed in concert and on the Opry stage, pays tribute to die-hard music fans and all the ways country music speaks to our hearts, hopes, fears, tears, and celebrations.

AVAILABLE TODAY: Stream Craig Morgan’s track “I’m Country Music”
AVAILABLE NOVEMBER 6: Pre-Save/Add/Order Craig Morgan’s album My Country HERE

“This new album brings together two things I love - my country and country music - and it’s created to celebrate both,” shares Craig. “You’ve been hearing ‘I’m Country Music’ in my shows lately and I’m excited to finally release it today. And I’m privileged too to have the blessing of my friend Toby Keith’s family to record and release my own version of his iconic song, ‘American Soldier,’ on the project too. I can’t wait for everyone to listen!”

Craig, who currently serves in the Army Reserve, continues to give back to our military veterans. Prior to his headlining show at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium on Saturday, November 7, the Grand Ole Opry member will host Craig Morgan’s Veterans Day 5K, supported by Humana, that morning at the Grand Ole Opry House. Registration is open now at veteransday5k.com and a portion of the proceeds will benefit Opry Trust Fund, Operation Finally Home, the USO and the Dickson County Craig Morgan Foundation.

OUT NOW: DREW BALDRIDGE’S FARM FAITH FAMILY

A project years in the making, Drew Baldridge’s highly anticipated album, FARM FAITH FAMILY, is officially out today via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. Listen Below. 

Nearly fifteen years after arriving in Nashville with a dream and lots of determination, Baldridge is entering a new chapter with FARM FAITH FAMILY, his third full-length album and first release on BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. The 16-track project is a deeply personal reflection of the life he has built along the way - one shaped by music, family, faith, farming, entrepreneurship and an unwavering belief in himself.

For Baldridge, the album represents more than a career milestone. It is the culmination of more than a decade of persistence, sacrifice and independence, arriving at a moment when the singer-songwriter finally has a team behind him that shares his vision and believes in the music as much as he does.

“It’s overwhelming to think about sometimes,” said Baldridge. “I’ve been working toward this moment for almost 15 years, which is crazy to think about. In some ways, it feels like I just moved to Nashville, and in other ways, it feels like I’ve been here forever. This album came together so organically because it’s a true reflection of who I am and the life I’ve built. I’m a dad, a husband, a musician, a songwriter, a farmer, a brother, a son, an entrepreneur and so much more. FARM FAITH FAMILY brings all of those pieces of my life together in three chapters that really represent the pillars of who I am.”

Structured around those three pillars, FARM FAITH FAMILY takes listeners through the experiences and values that have shaped Baldridge both personally and professionally. Tracks 1–4 comprise FARM, tracks 5–11 make up FAITH, and tracks 12–16 complete the album with FAMILY. Together, the three chapters offer an intimate portrait of an artist who has remained grounded in where he came from while continuing to push toward where he wants to go.

Structured around those three pillars, FARM FAITH FAMILY takes listeners through the experiences and values that have shaped Baldridge both personally and professionally. Tracks 1–4 comprise FARM, tracks 5–11 make up FAITH, and tracks 12–16 complete the album with FAMILY. Together, the three chapters offer an intimate portrait of an artist who has remained grounded in where he came from while continuing to push toward where he wants to go.

Baldridge co-wrote 14 of the album’s 16 tracks, further cementing the project as his most personal and authentic body of work to date. The album brings together a stellar collection of collaborators, including two of country music’s acclaimed rising stars, Anne Wilson and Emily Ann Roberts, alongside contributions from some of Nashville’s most accomplished songwriters, including GRAMMY-nominated writers Luke Combs, Laura Veltz, Tyler Hubbard, Seth Mosley, Rhett Akins and Tim Nichols.

After years of building a devoted fanbase independently, he has continued to prove the power of his music and his connection with fans. His self-funded single “She’s Somebody’s Daughter” became a career-defining success, reaching No. 1 on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase country chart and ultimately becoming RIAA Platinum-certified streaming favorite, demonstrating the strength of an artist who has built his career on his own terms.

Now, with FARM FAITH FAMILY, Baldridge is bringing that same independent spirit into a new era.

He will kick off the album release weekend with The BIG Baldridge and Bonfire Show tomorrow, September 19, in Patoka, IL. Now in its fourth year, the annual festival brings live music, friends and community together in the small town where Baldridge was raised, creating a one-of-a-kind party on the farm that celebrates the people and place that helped shape him. The celebration comes just days before a national TV appearance when Baldridge performs on Live with Kelly and Mark on September 23 before returning to Nashville to take the stage at the Grand Ole Opry that evening, followed by a special album listening event celebrating FARM FAITH FAMILY.

About Drew Baldridge: 
Drew Baldridge continues to give fans exactly what they’ve been asking for: a steady stream of authentic country music rooted in the themes that define him — farm, faith and family. His 16-track project, FARM FAITH FAMILY, is out now. 

The new chapter builds on the momentum of Baldridge’s RIAA Platinum-certified breakthrough, “She’s Somebody’s Daughter,” which reached No. 1 on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart and No. 3 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. The success made him the only self-funded artist to debut at No. 1 on Mediabase and the highest-charting independent artist in the history of Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. The song has generated more than 2 billion streams and impressions and was recognized by the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI) as one of its prestigious “10 Songs I Wish I’d Written.”

Baldridge is spending 2026 on the road headlining his FARM FAITH FAMILY Tour while also joining Cody Johnson and Luke Bryan on select dates. Following recent tours across Australia, the U.K. and Europe — both as a headliner and opening for Jelly Roll — he continues to expand his global audience while earning industry recognition, including being named a CRS New Faces of Country Music honoree and MusicRow’s 2025 Independent Artist of the Year.

JADE EAGLESON & MIDLAND ARE “COMING SOON TO A HONKY TONK NEAR YOU” – OUT NOW

Jade Eagleson has never been interested in sanding down the edges of country music. Now, kicking off his next chapter with BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville, the award-winning artist teams up with neotraditional country revivalists Midland on “Coming Soon To A Honky Tonk Near You,” doubling down on the sound he has championed from the start. Available everywhere HERE.

Co-written by Eagleson, Matt Roy, Casey Brown and Travis Wood, the rowdy heartbreak anthem sends a newly single cowboy on an all-night barroom tour rather than home to nurse a broken heart. Produced by Todd Clark and Wood, the track was deliberately built to feel at home in the kind of honky tonks that first shaped Eagleson’s musical instincts, bringing fiddle and pedal steel to the forefront. Midland’s unmistakable harmonies meet Eagleson’s twang, pairing two acts united by a shared reverence for classic country.

“We really wanted this song to feel like you’re right inside some honky tonk in the middle of nowhere,” shares Eagleson. “From the writing to the musicians we brought in and the way we produced it, every choice was made with that in mind. It was important to me that it sound like the country music I grew up playing and still love today.”

For Eagleson, that commitment to country tradition predates the accolades that have followed. Raised on a family farm, he stepped away from some of his duties there in 2017 to pursue music full time, carrying with him a sound rooted in the country music he had long loved and played. When he began making trips to Nashville nearly a decade ago, Eagleson recalled being politely turned away by some in the music industry because what he was doing was considered “too country.” Rather than change his sound, he made it his calling card.

That conviction has since taken Eagleson from the farm to more than 430 million global streams, 130 million YouTube views and five No. 1s at Canadian Country Radio, alongside multiple GOLD and PLATINUM certifications. His self-titled 2020 debut introduced an artist intent on bringing neo-traditional country forward on his own terms, while subsequent releases continued to build a career around the steel, fiddle and storytelling at the center of his musical identity. His momentum continues this year, with Eagleson earning CCMA Award nominations for Male Artist of the Year and Fans’ Choice.

“This song marks the beginning of my next chapter musically, and I couldn’t be more excited,” says Eagleson. “Having Midland on it makes it even more special. I’ve been a fan since day one, and there ain’t too many folks out there that can twang like them.”

“Jade is cut from the same cloth as us. He’s a troubadour and a honky tonk revivalist taking traditional country music into the modern era,” says Midland’s Mark Wystrach. “He hit us up to join him on this up-tempo bar banger, and it was a no-brainer. He’s our little brother and a helluva artist. Midland x Jade Eagleson are comin’ to a honky tonk near you soon!”

With “Coming Soon To A Honky Tonk Near You,” Eagleson lets the sound that got him here lead the charge into his next chapter.

About Jade Eagleson
Jade Eagleson built his career by betting on the kind of country music he knew long before he had the accolades to prove the bet paid off. Raised on a family farm, Eagleson stepped away from some of his duties there in 2017 to pursue a longtime dream of making music, setting his sights on bringing neo-traditional country back to the forefront. Early trips to Nashville found some politely turning him away for being “too country,” but Eagleson never saw that as a reason to change course. His 2018 debut “Got Your Name On It” became his breakthrough, with its music video surpassing 100 million views and the song becoming the first debut single by a Canadian artist to achieve PLATINUM certification. Since then, Eagleson has amassed more than 430 million global streams, including 215 million in the United States, alongside 130 million YouTube views, five No. 1s at Canadian Country Radio and multiple GOLD and PLATINUM certifications across three albums. That commitment to the music that first shaped him remains at the center of Eagleson’s work today. With steel, fiddle and country storytelling as guideposts, the 2025 CCMA Male Artist of the Year and four-time JUNO Award nominee enters his next chapter with BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville not by leaving his roots behind, but by taking them to a bigger stage with his latest release “Coming Soon To A Honky Tonk Near You” with Midland.

About Midland
Footloose and free, working hard and drinking harder, always riding into the sunset or sunrise, GRAMMY-nominated trio Midland makes country music feel viscerally alive and timeless, with songs for people to drink, swing, love and, yes, lose to. Name inspired by a Dwight Yoakam song, the Dripping Springs, TX-born trio channels a distinctly 21st century post-modern traditionalism, recapturing that classic country essence through thick harmonies, steel guitars and a worn-in cool that has made their music a dive bar staple worldwide. Honed in barrooms, it’s a sound that’s been imitated but never duplicated since their now 5X PLATINUM, No. 1 “Drinkin’ Problem.”


For Mark Wystrach, Cameron Duddy and Jess Carson, music isn’t just something to play in your car. It envelopes their aesthetics, from the Nudie Cohn-inspired rhinestone suits, their Insolito Tequila and Kingsmaker cigar line to their album-focused musical explorations and lean, song-forward live presentation. From head-turning debut On The Rocks through the Billboard Top Country Albums chart-topping Let It Roll and into The Last Resort: Greetings From and Barely Blue, Midland has built a catalog that bridges conceptual ambition with roots-driven songwriting, continuing through projects like The Sonic Ranch and Live From The Palomino. Alongside “Drinkin’ Problem,” their catalog also includes PLATINUM-certified “Burn Out” and GOLD-certified favorites “Cheatin’ Songs,” “Make A Little” and “On The Rocks.” The band's commitment to the sounds, stories and places that define country music persists on Stages, out now via Blue Highway Records. Braiding Laurel Canyon country-rock, Texas outliers, and a shot of vintage Nashville, the critically acclaimed project pulls together the many phases of their journey, further staking their claim as one of country’s most engaging acts. 

LANIE GARDNER RELEASES FADED POLAROIDS (DELUXE) VIA BBR MUSIC GROUP/BMG NASHVILLE

Lanie Gardner releases Faded Polaroids (Deluxe) today via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville, adding three new songs to the collection she released in 2025. Featuring “You Ain't My Daddy,” “Bye Bye,” and “Say It Sober,” the 21-track project brings resolution to a deeply personal chapter for Gardner while offering a glimpse at the woman and artist she's becoming. Listen to Faded Polaroids (Deluxe) below.

For Gardner, Faded Polaroids was always about more than a collection of songs. The album captured the lessons, heartbreaks and growing pains of her early twenties, but she felt the story needed one final chapter before she could move forward. The three new songs offer that resolution, reflecting the perspective Gardner gained after living through the experiences that shaped the original album.

 “This project captures the lessons, heartbreaks, and growing pains of my early twenties while reflecting my desire to keep pushing the boundaries of country music,” Lanie shared. “Faded Polaroids (Deluxe) reveals, specifically, more of the woman I've become after living through those experiences and carrying the wisdom they left behind.”

The three new songs were written and recorded with Kristian Bush, who Gardner credits with helping bring her vision to life while allowing her to remain at the center of the creative process. Working without phones, distractions or outside comparisons, the pair and their team focused on building a world around the songs that felt entirely their own. The result is a collection that continues Gardner's genre-blurring approach while giving her room to explore a more evolved perspective.

At the center of the new collection is “Say It Sober,” which offers a more reflective side of Gardner following the unapologetic energy of “You Ain't My Daddy.” The track serves as another piece of the story Gardner wanted to finish telling before turning the page on the Faded Polaroids era.

Earlier this summer, Gardner gave fans the opportunity to choose which of the three new songs they wanted to hear first, with “You Ain't My Daddy” ultimately earning the most votes. The response reinforced the connection Gardner has built with an audience that sees itself in her honesty and independence. As she puts it, “The girls aren't taking the backseat anymore!” The song's message of supporting women rather than controlling them resonated not only with her female fans, but with listeners who connected to the idea. 

Now, as Gardner brings Faded Polaroids to the road, the deluxe edition marks both an ending and a beginning. She recently wrapped select dates with Jordan Davis, continues Luke Bryan's “Word On The Street Tour”into the fall before joining Ty Myers. With the final chapter of Faded Polaroids now complete, Gardner is carrying its lessons forward while leaving behind the parts of herself that no longer fit.

DUSTIN LYNCH ANNOUNCES SEVENTH STUDIO ALBUM CLEAN SLATE - AVAILABLE OCTOBER 30

MULTI-PLATINUM, 10x #1 hitmaker Dustin Lynch announces his seventh studio album, Clean Slate, arriving October 30 via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. The 12-track collection is available to pre-add, pre-save and pre-order HERE.

Taking its name from the album’s introspective title track, Clean Slate finds Lynch looking at where he’s been, what he’s learned and where he wants to go next. Across 12 tracks, love comes into view from every angle: imagining the life you could build, recognizing the one worth coming home to, chasing a new spark, revisiting the one that got away and confronting the heartbreak that refuses to disappear at last call. There are nights made for cutting loose and hard-earned lessons that only come with time, all leading back to the possibility of clearing the slate and moving forward.

“There’s a lot of life on this record,” shares Lynch. “Falling for somebody, missing somebody, looking back at things you might do differently now, going out and having a damn good time, and figuring out what matters when everything else gets quiet. I’ve lived a lot of life since my first record, and I wanted this album to feel true to where I am today while still sounding like me.”

Lynch co-wrote seven of the album’s 12 tracks, working alongside Nashville songwriters including Zach Crowell, Justin Ebach, Josh Thompson, Jameson Rodgers, Brent Anderson, Hunter Phelps, Ben Johnson, John Byron and more. Production is shared across the collection by Ross Copperman, Zach Crowell and Austin Shawn, with MC4D producing and featuring on album closer “Home To You.” Clean Slate also features Ashley Cooke on “How You Been.”

Before Clean Slate arrives in full, Lynch leads off with “Made In A Bottle,” available September 4. Written by Jesse Frasure, Mark Holman and Geoff Warburton and produced by Ross Copperman, the straight-down-the-middle honky-tonk anthem is built on real instruments, real players and the snap of a full band. Against that high-energy backdrop, Lynch makes the rounds from bar to bar only to learn there isn’t a pour strong enough to outrun the memory of the one he lost.

“We started playing ‘Made In A Bottle’ live this summer and the reaction was immediate,” shares Lynch. “I love the energy of it and the rhythmic pocket in that chorus. You can’t help but move along to it. Production-wise, we wanted it to feel like you’re right there in the middle of our live show. There aren’t a bunch of studio tricks. It’s real instruments and real players, and it’s just a great honky-tonk song. We’ve road-tested it all summer, and it fits our show perfectly.”

The announcement follows Lynch’s Setlist Staples - 10 #1’s, a collection bringing together all 10 of his Country radio chart-toppers and capturing the songs that have become the foundation of his live show. Released August 28, the collection arrived alongside new RIAA certifications for “Small Town Boy” (5X PLATINUM), “Thinking ’Bout You” (4X PLATINUM), “Ridin’ Roads” (2X PLATINUM) and “Chevrolet (feat. Jelly Roll)” (PLATINUM).

Lynch continues to bring that catalog to the stage with shows slated throughout the fall and into 2027, including a September 30 return to the Grand Ole Opry, followed by a special post-show event at Studio A. For tickets and a full list of upcoming dates, visit HERE.

JOHN MORGAN REMINISCES WITH NEW SINGLE "ONCE IN A MILE"

Six time #1 hitmaker John Morgan releases a new track today, “Once in a Mile.” Written by Morgan and Brent Anderson, the new song comes as Morgan’s current single “Kid Myself” is inside the Top 10 on the radio charts and climbing. Listen to “Once in a Mile” Below.

In “Once in a Mile,” Morgan turns the drive back home into an unraveling of memories - every passing mile stirring up the ghosts of a love that used to exist there. The production carries its own sense of momentum, a steady, driving pulse that mirrors the highway itself, propelling the song forward even as the lyrics pull backward into the past. Built on classic country instrumentation with a warm, nostalgic glow, the track captures that bittersweet ache of proximity: the closer you get to home, the closer you get to what you lost. Morgan's grounded, emotive vocal delivery sits at the heart of it all, turning a simple road trip into a quietly devastating meditation on memories and heartbreak.

John Morgan will be out on the road this fall.

BBR MUSIC GROUP/BMG NASHVILLE ANNOUNCES THE SIGNING OF JADE EAGLESON

BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville proudly announces the signing of award-winning Canadian country artist Jade Eagleson to its recording roster. One of the genre's leading international voices, Eagleson has amassed more than 430 million global streams and 130 million YouTube views while earning five No. 1 singles at Canadian Country Radio, multiple GOLD and PLATINUM certifications, and widespread acclaim for his modern take on neo-traditional country music.

The Ontario native continues to build on that momentum following a remarkable stretch that includes four JUNO Award nominations, 2025 CCMA Male Artist of the Year, 2024 CCMA Album of the Year, and 2023 CCMA Entertainer of the Year and Male Artist of the Year honors.

In addition to signing with the label, Eagleson also expanded his team signing with Range Music for management, CAA for booking and Spirit Music, in a joint venture with Alliance Music Partners, for publishing. 

Photo ID: Standing: BMG’s Jen Morgan, CAA’s Karen Schillinger & Bennett Beckner, BMG’s Quinn Bauducco, Range Music’s Shawn McSpadden & Trey Wilson, BMG Canada’s Lindsay Hyslop Seated: BMG North America’s Katie Kerkhover, BMG Canada’s Bryan Columbus, BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville’s JoJamie Hahr, Jade Eagleson, BMG North & South America’s Jon Loba, BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville’s Peter Strickland & Camille Kenny

“I’m incredibly excited to begin my journey with BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville,” says Jade. “I have always had a profound respect for their team and the way they love and elevate their artists. The whole team feels like family and I’m so very proud to call this label my home. Regarding Range, that team has already been such a strong support for me, and we’re only just getting started. I feel incredibly aligned with them. They are strategic and innovative, and have been a blessing to have in my life. The fine folks that work there have quickly become some of my best friends.  In addition, I love my agents at CAA, and I am so grateful that they rolled the dice on me and my obsession with steel and fiddle. It hasn’t been all that long and I’ve already had experiences that will last a lifetime. I am excited to continue playing and growing new markets with these fine folks. For the Spirit Music team, I remember coming to Nashville close to 10 years ago exploring publishing options, and most folks politely turned me away because what I was doing at the time was too country. Frank Rogers and Derek Wells on the other hand took the time to hear my music, and show interest in what I was doing when nobody else would. I have also had the privilege of working with Abbey for the last year or two and love that I can work with all of these incredible people on my upcoming releases. With these leaders in my corner across all aspects of my career, I am looking forward to what the next few years look like for me, my music and my opportunities to connect and engage with fans globally.”

"Jade represents so much of what everyone loves about this format. He knows exactly who he is as an artist, has an undeniable respect for the genre and has built an incredible career by stying true to that," says JoJamie Hahr, EVP, BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. "What he has already accomplished is impressive, but we believe there is so much more ahead. We're thrilled to welcome Jade to the family and excited to be part of this next chapter."

"Spirit Music has been a big fan of Jade Eagleson for years,” shares Frank Rogers, CEO Spirit Music. We are excited to partner with Jade and help let the rest of the world discover what we (and all of Canada) have been excited about for a long time! Let’s go!”

"Jade has achieved remarkable success, and I am beyond excited to partner with him and Spirit Music on this next chapter,” says Abbey Adams, Co-Founder, Alliance Music Partners. “This is a pivotal point for Jade, the possibilities are endless, and we're thrilled to be a part of creating something even bigger with him." 

About Jade Eagleson
Jade Eagleson has made quite a mark on the international country music scene.

BRANTLEY GILBERT’S AGRICULTURAL DOCUMENTARY DIRTY MONEY PREMIERES ON FOX NATION

On the heels of the release of his eighth studio album SINS OF THE FATHER, multi-Platinum trailblazer Brantley Gilbert’s new documentary Dirty Money is available now, premiering exclusively on FOX Nation. As the agricultural industry faces rising costs and mounting economic pressures, the 90-minute documentary takes viewers inside the lives of America's farmers and explores the challenges threatening the future of one of the nation's most essential industries. Watch the trailer Below.

“Dirty Money is about giving farmers the opportunity to tell their own stories and shine a light on the realities they deal with every day, from rising costs to protecting the lands that have been in their families for generations,” shares Gilbert. “Whether you grew up on a farm or have never set foot on one, I hope people walk away with a better understanding of the challenges these families face and why protecting the future of American agriculture matters to all of us.”

Directed by Shaun Silva, Dirty Money immerses viewers in the lives of farmers who are navigating a critical crossroads. Through firsthand accounts and untold stories, the documentary spotlights the economic challenges, everyday difficulties and harsh realities that farmers are facing across the country. Executive producers include Gilbert and Silva, alongside Three Sons Films, Aaron Keiser and Keith J. Leman and producers include Don Lepore and Jake Allyn.

Released via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville, SINS OF THE FATHER marks his most personal project, with Sports Illustrated sharing, “Brantley Gilbert remains anchored by the three things that never wavered: his family, his faith, and the Georgia dirt that raised him. In SINS OF THE FATHER, he turns that foundation into his boldest, most honest chapter yet,” while Entertainment Focus observes, “Vocally he’s on top form, lyrically he’s mining deeper than he has before, and musically he’s more considered than he’s ever been,” calling it “his best album yet.”

Gilbert recently extended The Real American Tour, with dates announced throughout the U.S. through the fall, including stops at The Fruit Yard Amphitheater in Modesto, CA, Leader Bank Pavilion in Boston, MA, Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT, VyStar Pavilion in Savannah, GA and PNC Pavilion in Cincinnati, OH.

LANIE GARDNER ANNOUNCES FADED POLAROIDS (DELUXE) ARRIVING SEPTEMBER 4

Following the success of her acclaimed album, Lanie Gardner will release Faded Polaroids (Deluxe) on September 4 via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. Available for pre-add/pre-save today, the expanded edition features three brand-new songs, continuing the musical journey that began with her Polaroids EP and evolved on Faded Polaroids. Fans can hear the first new release, "You Ain't My Daddy," below.

Alongside the album's original 18 tracks, which helped earn Gardner recognition as a “2025 Artist to Watch” by the Recording Academy/GRAMMY, Gardner worked with Kristian Bush on the deluxe edition to expand on the world of Faded Polaroids. With three new songs - "You Ain't My Daddy," "Bye Bye," and "Say It Sober” - she further showcases her fearless songwriting and unmistakable voice.

“Faded Polaroids felt like a resolution before stepping into the next chapter of my artistry, capturing the growing pains of my early twenties. With the deluxe edition, I’m reflecting on the woman I’ve become because of them,” Lanie shared. “These new songs solidify that evolution, and I hope they encourage women to trust themselves, reclaim their voices, and never settle for anything that makes them forget their worth. That’s exactly how I felt writing them.”

After teasing snippets across social media, Gardner let fans vote on which of the new songs they wanted to hear first and they chose "You Ain't My Daddy." Equal parts playful and defiant, the country-rock anthem pushes back against unsolicited opinions and expectations with sharp wit, gritty guitars and a singalong chorus. It's a reminder that no one else gets to decide who you are or how you choose to live your life. Go behind the scenes with Lanie and the making of the song here. 

The release arrives as Gardner continues her breakout year on Luke Bryan's “Word On The Street Tour,” bringing her music to audiences across the country. Since first capturing global attention with her viral cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams," Gardner has carved out a sound that blends the storytelling heart of country with the grit of rock, the soul of blues and the hooks of pop. With Faded Polaroids, Gardner continued defining her sound, and the deluxe edition pushes that evolution even further.

Gardner will continue on Luke Bryan’s “Word On The Street Tour” into the fall, before joining Jordan Davis and Ty Myers for select dates. Visit laniegardnermusic.com for ticket information.

ALISON NICHOLS FINDS THE SILVING LINING ON BOLD NEW ANTHEM "ALL HEAVEN BROKE LOOSE" – OUT NOW

Alison Nichols discovers that sometimes the best things happen after everything falls apart on her new release, "All Heaven Broke Loose," out now via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. Written by Nichols with Natalie Stovall and Zach Manno, and produced by Will Rambeaux and Ilya Toshinskiy, the bold country-pop anthem transforms heartbreak into hope, celebrating the unexpected freedom that comes from starting over. Listen HERE. 

Built around the clever twist of its title, "All Heaven Broke Loose" flips a familiar phrase into something entirely its own. As Nichols sings about watching someone drive away, the song steadily trades heartbreak for healing, landing on a realization that echoes throughout the chorus: sometimes losing what you thought you wanted is exactly what leads you where you're meant to be. By the final chorus, lyrics like "I found me when I lost you" reveal a story that's less about the end of a relationship than the beginning of a new chapter.

"This song is about the last year of my life. It's been one crazy roller coaster of emotions. I signed my record deal, lost a relationship and had to figure out who I was on the other side of it. Looking back now, I can honestly say what felt like the worst thing that could've happened ended up making room for some of the best things. I hope anyone who's walking through heartbreak can hear this song and realize there's life after goodbye. Sometimes all heaven really does break loose," says Nichols.

Watch the official "All Heaven Broke Loose" music video Below:

Sonically, "All Heaven Broke Loose" was built as a big, bold country-pop statement. Bright metallic electric guitars, chiming steel and a driving rhythm section give the verses emotional weight before the soaring chorus delivers the exhilaration of moving forward. Balancing the sadness of heartbreak with the freedom of a fresh start, the track captures the moment when pain gives way to possibility.

Following the warmth of "Dressin' Down" and the carefree spirit of "Box Wine Problems," Nichols continues to reveal new dimensions of her artistry, pairing deeply personal storytelling with a modern country sound that feels both relatable and uplifting. "All Heaven Broke Loose" is another step forward for one of country's brightest emerging voices.

COLIN STOUGH LAYS HIS HEART BARE ON HAUNTING NEW BALLAD "BONE DRY" - OUT NOW

Colin Stough strips everything back on his latest release, "Bone Dry," available everywhere now. Listen BELOW.

Written by Stough alongside Gavin Lucas and Jackson Inman, and produced by Phillip White and Stough, "Bone Dry" trades roaring guitars for quiet devastation. Anchored by acoustic guitar, understated percussion and one of Stough's most vulnerable vocal performances to date, the heartbreak ballad captures the emptiness left behind when there are simply no tears left to cry.

"'Bone Dry' is about getting to that point after a breakup where you've cried all the tears you've got left," Stough shares. "The person you loved was everything to you, and then one day they're gone, and you're just standing there trying to figure out what comes next. Growing up in Mississippi, rivers, rain and dry ground were just part of everyday life, so that imagery always stuck with me. Sometimes heartbreak doesn't leave you angry. It just leaves you empty. That's what this song is."

Built around imagery of dried-up riverbeds, cracked earth and empty skies, "Bone Dry" turns the landscape of Stough's Mississippi upbringing into a portrait of heartbreak. His gravel-worn vocal carries every ounce of the song's emotional weight before giving way to a restrained guitar solo that never overwhelms the story, allowing every lyric to settle long after the final chorus fades.

The release follows the rock-driven "Trippin'," showcasing another side of Stough's artistry and continuing to prove that whether he's turning the amps up or stripping everything away, his greatest strength has always been telling the truth.

About Colin Stough
Born and raised on the Mississippi-Alabama line, 21-year-old Colin Stough was brought up on Southern rock and second chances. A self-taught guitarist and gravel-voiced storyteller influenced by The Allman Brothers, Conway Twitty and Koe Wetzel, he first picked up a guitar at age eight, later trading prized possessions for a pawn shop acoustic he still plays today. After high school, he worked full-time as an HVAC tech until his mom pushed him to audition for American Idol Season 21. That leap launched a life-changing ride, including a standout third-place finish, a deal with 19 Recordings/BMG Nashville and breakout songs like "Sober," "'Til The Day One Does" and the hard-edged anthem "White Trash." With a skinned-raw vocal and lyrics carved from lived experience, Stough has built a loyal following of more than 800K across social platforms. His EPs Promiseland and Lookin' For Homeoffer a no-frills portrait of a young man navigating life with Southern grit, while releases including "White Trash," "20 Bucks," "Best For You," "21 Year Old Man Blues," "Trippin'" and now "Bone Dry" continue to showcase both the power and vulnerability of his songwriting. On the road, he has opened for acts like Chase Matthew, Drake White and Kidd G as he continues to build his audience one show at a time. A student of Skynyrd and the outlaw spirit, Stough isn't chasing trends. He's telling the underdog's truth, one song at a time.

Jason Aldean officially launched his highly anticipated Songs About Us Tour this weekend with three consecutive sold-out shows, opening the Live Nation-produced, Patriot Mobile-sponsored summer run to capacity crowds in Bangor, Maine; Holmdel, New Jersey; and Bethel, New York.

The sold-out opening weekend marks another milestone for the Grammy-nominated entertainer, who celebrates his 32nd career No. 1 single at country radio with his three-week Billboard Country Airplay and two-week Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart-topper "Don’t Tell On Me." With his latest single, Jason enters the Top 4 artists with the most No. 1’s on the Billboard Country Airplay Charts, joining Kenny Chesney, Blake Shelton and Tim McGraw at the top of the charts. His latest acclaimed studio album, Songs About Us, was released in April. The 20-track collection showcases the Georgia native’s signature sound, storytelling and collaborations that have defined his two-decade career as one of country music’s most successful and influential entertainers since the release of his debut album in 2005.

In celebration of the Songs About Us Tour kickoff, Aldean shared with fans that three of his albums will be released on vinyl Sept. 18, including his self-titled debut album, Jason Aldean (2005); his multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated, award-winning album My Kinda Party (2010); and They Don’t Know(2016).

Released in 2005, Aldean’s self-titled debut featured his breakthrough single "Hicktown" and earned the Georgia native his first ACM Award nomination for Song of the Year with "Amarillo Sky." Released in 2010, Aldean’s multi-platinum, career-defining My Kinda Party was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Country Album, produced multiple No. 1 singles, including "Fly Over States," "Tattoos On This Town" and "My Kinda Party," and earned additional Grammy nominations for Best Country Duo/Group Performance ("Don’t You Wanna Stay" featuring Kelly Clarkson) and Best Country Solo Performance ("Dirt Road Anthem"). Following the release of They Don’t Know, Aldean earned three consecutive ACM Entertainer of the Year awards (2016, 2017 and 2018) before receiving the ACM's Artist of the Decade Award in 2019, recognizing artists who have dominated country music over a 10-year span through commercial success, touring and artistic merit. This marks the first time all three albums have been available on vinyl. Pre-order Jason Aldean, My Kinda Party and They Don’t Know on vinyl here.

The Songs About Us Tour continues this week with stops in Wichita, Oklahoma City and Kansas City before making its way across North America through September.

WHERE:

Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway

WHO:

After helping set the stage for the modern country era with his 2009 debut, A Modern Day Prodigal Son, multi-Platinum trailblazer Brantley Gilbert has never shied away from the ugly truth. Boasting a consequential catalog of seven No. 1 hits like the RIAA 7x Platinum “Bottoms Up;” the 2x Platinum “Country Must Be Country Wide,” 2x Platinum “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do,” 2x Platinum “One Hell of An Amen,” and more, he’s spent nearly two decades stitching heartfelt country values and explosive energy to barbed-wire R&B swagger and his signature, Southern-smoke vocal, driving over 8 billion streams and one of the format’s heaviest live shows. Yet with his eighth studio album SINS OF THE FATHER, available July 24, brutal honesty and a brass-knuckled country-rock sound take his confessional song craft to new heights. The project’s current single, “GOOD DAMN” is climbing the charts. Marking his first project with BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville, 15 fresh songs were co-written by Gilbert with Taylor Phillips, Jelly Roll, HARDY, and more, as the hit maker delivers an “unapologetic” throw down of mature themes, once again ready to meet fans where they are. Co-producer Brock Berryhill helps Gilbert create some of the hardest-hitting work of his career, while the diesel-fueled two-lane trap he helped pioneer on genre-defining tracks like Jason Aldean’s “Dirt Road Anthem” is never far away. From the warm buzz of nostalgic pride to fatherhood and faith, red-hot devotion, and rock-bottom redemption, the self-avowed open book holds nothing back. Possessing a can’t-fake-it quality of fierce independence, the ACM, CMA and AMA award winner has toured alongside everyone from Willie Nelson to Toby Keith, Nickelback to Five Finger Death Punch and more.

CARLY PEARCE RETURNS TO APPALACHIAN ROOTS IN TIMELESS NEW BLUEGRASS TRACK “WHAT IF YOU LOVED ME” WITH DAN TYMINSKI AND MOLLY TUTTLE

GRAMMY, CMA and ACM-Award winning country star Carly Pearce highlights her Bluegrass and Appalachian roots in timeless new song out today, “What If You Loved Me” with two of the genre’s powerhouses, Dan Tyminski and Molly Tuttle. Rich vocal performances melt into tight harmonies as they sing about longing and possibility, layered on top of Tyminski’s mandolin and Tuttle’s clawhammer banjo and guitar. Simultaneously classic and contemporary, “What If You Loved Me” honors tradition for a standout offering from the trio. Listen to the track HERE and watch the official music video BELOW.

“Bluegrass is such a cherished part of who I am as it’s where I got my start,” says Pearce. “To record a song that honors my roots with two artists that I have deep respect and admiration for is not only a special moment, but very emotional. 10-year-old Carly who grew up singing in bluegrass bands would be over the moon to know she has a song with Dan and Molly (as is present-day Carly!). This is the perfect moment in my career to show fans this side of my heart.”

“What If You Loved Me”  is the latest preview of Pearce’s highly anticipated fifth studio album, Honest Woman, which will arrive August 28 via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. Co-produced by Pearce with longtime collaborator Ben West, Honest Woman sees Pearce embrace every aspect of who she was, is, and will become through narrative-driven lyrics and a sonic return to form. Including features with Riley Green, Dan Tyminski and Molly Tuttle, the album leans into her bluegrass origins and focuses on authentic country craftsmanship. Honest Woman is an ‘honest’ portrayal of life’s journey delivered by a woman who understands that it’s the fullness of time that defines you. Pre-order, pre-add, and pre-save the album HERE and find the full track list below.

In addition to today’s release, Pearce’s forthcoming album will include current single and “blockbuster duet” (Billboard) with Riley Green, “If I Don’t Leave I’m Gonna Stay,” along with the “lilting portrait of a femme free spirit” (MusicRow) “She Don’t,” the “delightfully snarky & sassy” (Music Row) “You Can Have Him,” “honest anthem” (Rolling Stone) “Church Girl” and the “unfiltered, introspective” (Billboard) “Dream Come True.” As Pearce is readying Honest Woman, each track continues to define “the tone for her most vulnerable era yet” (The Tennessean).

To support the album, Pearce will be performing special two-night residencies across North America. Kicking off September 10 with two nights in Detroit, Pearce will bring her “Honest Woman: Up Close” live shows presented by Conundrum Wines to intimate venues in Chicago, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Toronto and Boston before concluding with two nights in New York City. Belle Frantz will join Pearce as support. Tickets are on sale now.

MULTI-PLATINUM COUNTRY ROCKER BRANTLEY GILBERT EXTENDS HEADLINING REAL AMERICAN TOUR

As he readies the release of his eighth studio album SINS OF THE FATHER for Friday, July 24, multi-Platinum trailblazer Brantley Gilbert announces additional tour stops, extending his headlining Real American Tour through November 2026. With direct support from John Morgan, along with Jay Webb and Atlus on select dates, the newly announced dates include stops in Boston, Mass., Savannah, Ga., Cincinnati, Ohio, Biloxi, Miss. and more.

General on sale begins this Friday, July 17 at 10am local time at BrantleyGilbert.com. Fan club members in the Gold & Silver tiers can begin purchasing tickets tomorrow, July 14 at 10am local time and Bronze can begin purchasing tickets Wednesday, July 15 at 10am local time. Pre-sales will run through Thursday, July 16 at 10pm local time.

On Father’s Day, Gilbert released two new tracks from his forthcoming album: title track “SINS OF THE FATHER” and “GOOD OL’ BOYS,” which followed lead single “GOOD DAMN,” currently climbing the charts at Country radio, and the deeply personal “F****D ME UP,” with MusicRow praising, “his gripping, broken vocal on this ballad grabs ahold and doesn’t let go…it’s a powerful thing.” 

No stranger to pushing country’s evolutionary curve, SINS OF THE FATHER goes beyond sonic innovation, to confront the ugly truth. Fusing heartfelt country values with explosive energy and barbed-wire R&B swagger, he describes the project as a deeply personal playlist, once again ready to meet fans where they are.
 
“As long as there’s a box in country music, I know where I belong,” the Georgia-born hitmaker says. “And that’s right on the outside of it. All of my albums are a chapter of my life and this one’s no different. I don’t have skeletons in the closet – my shit’s out in the open. So if there’s any piece of my story that could help somebody, I’m cheating them if I keep it to myself.”
 
Co-produced with rock-schooled collaborator Brock Berryhill (Twenty One Pilots, Kane Brown), SINS OF THE FATHER marks some of the hardest-hitting work of Gilbert’s career, yet the diesel-fueled two-lane trap he helped pioneer is never far away. Bottomless distortion and pounding drums join melodic, gravel-road grooves, while the bare bones of country soul turn painful realities into three-chords-and-the-truth.
 
He also launched Real American Beer Zero after becoming an investor and equity partner of Real American Beer (RAB). RAB Zero is the company’s first non-alcoholic beer with $1 per case sold of RAB Zero going to the USO in addition to ongoing donations tied directly to sales, supporting active-duty service members and their families.

 Chart-topping Country hitmaker Drew Baldridge joins forces with GMA Dove award-winning Christian artist Anne Wilson on the heartfelt new collaboration, "Maker's Mark," available everywhere now. Blending Baldridge's unmistakable country roots with Wilson's powerhouse vocals and faith-filled perspective, the song delivers an uplifting message about faith, purpose, and the everyday choices that shape who we are.  Listen HERE.

Penned by Baldridge alongside GRAMMY-nominated songwriter Laura Veltz and acclaimed songwriters Allison Veltz-Cruz and Lalo Guzman, "Maker's Mark" serves as the first release from the FAITH chapter of Baldridge's forthcoming album, FARM FAITH FAMILY. Through soaring harmonies and heartfelt storytelling, the song encourages listeners to lead with compassion, live with intention, and make every moment count. It also marks the first official collaboration between Baldridge and Wilson, whose shared values and authentic artistry make them a natural musical pairing.

"'Maker's Mark' is one of my favorite songs on the record," says Baldridge. "At its core, it's about the legacy a person leaves behind. That means loving others, giving back, and living with purpose and compassion. It's a reminder to live like Jesus and leave a positive impact wherever life takes you, because above all else, being a good person matters most."

The accompanying official music video, also out today, brings the song's message to life through powerful performance-driven visuals filmed in the beautiful foothills of Tennessee, on a property previously home to superstar Alan Jackson. PEOPLE received the exclusive first look at the collaboration. Watch Below.

"Maker's Mark" will appear on Baldridge's highly anticipated new album, FARM FAITH FAMILY, arriving September 18 via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. The 16-track collection - his major-label debut - is also his most personal project to date, celebrating the values that have shaped both his life and career. Pre-order/pre-save/pre-add HERE.

Baldridge's album announcement continues to build on the momentum of a career-defining year. Fresh off the success of recent releases, he is currently headlining his FARM FAITH FAMILY Tour, bringing new music to fans across the country while also joining Luke Bryan on select dates and performing at fairs and festivals throughout the summer. On September 18, he'll cap off the album's release with his own BIG Baldridge & Bonfire Festival in his hometown of Patoka, Illinois.

About Drew Baldridge: 
Drew Baldridge continues to give fans exactly what they've been asking for: a steady stream of authentic country music rooted in the themes that define him - farm, faith, and family. His latest release, "Maker's Mark," introduces the FAITH chapter of his highly anticipated album, FARM FAITH FAMILY, arriving September 18. The song follows "Diesel & Dirt," which served as the project's introduction, and joins the 16-track collection alongside "Tough People," Baldridge's second consecutive Top 10 hit at country radio.

The new chapter builds on the momentum of Baldridge's RIAA Platinum-certified breakthrough, "She's Somebody's Daughter," which reached No. 1 on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart and No. 3 on Billboard's Country Airplay chart. The success made him the only self-funded artist to debut at No. 1 on Mediabase and the highest-charting independent artist in the history of Billboard's Country Airplay chart. The song has generated more than 2 billion streams and impressions and was recognized by the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI) as one of its prestigious "10 Songs I Wish I'd Written."

Baldridge will spend 2026 on the road headlining his FARM FAITH FAMILY Tour, while also joining Cody Johnson and Luke Bryan on select dates. Following recent tours across Australia, the U.K., and Europe both headlining and opening for Jelly Roll, he continues to expand his global audience while earning industry recognition, including being named a CRS New Faces of Country Music honoree and MusicRow's 2025 Independent Artist of the Year.

Jelly Roll)," helping propel the Tennessee native to 10 No. 1 singles, billions of global streams and a reputation as one of the format's most consistent hitmakers.

As Lynch continues expanding his reach from festival stages and arenas to nightlife venues and dance floors, the collection serves as both a look back at the moments that helped define his journey and a reminder that the story is still being written. Fans can catch these songs live at select festivals and headlining dates across the U.S. and Canada this summer and fall, for tickets visit HERE. More details on Lynch's forthcoming new studio album will be announced soon.
