SWMRS just released their official music video for “D’You Have A Car?” and it’s filled with some pretty awesome tour footage and memories from the last few months. The song is from the band’s debut album “Drive North” which has been picking up some serious steam since the band signed to Fueled By Ramen and re-released their debut album with major label support behind them.
We can’t wait for SWMRS to come back Stateside for more shows but for now, catch the band opening for All Time Low in Europe all March long! Watch the official video for “D’You Have A Car?” below.
Be sure to grab a copy of “Drive North” on iTunes or Amazon so you can sing along on tour.
The new single from Florida Georgia Line and Backstreet Boys combines two of our favorite things: country music and boybands! The song is heartfelt and sweet with both bands singing in harmony about how unconditionally they love their wives. The brand new video shows each member filming the most romantic things they’ve done for their better half- from filling a hotel hot tub with rose petals, to a picnic by the lake, to little things like bringing their wife her favorite drink on the beach!
This collaboration is a match made in music heaven and we are swooning over it. FGL shared on tour last Summer that they learned everything they learned about performing from their first concert: Backstreet Boys! They even perform “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)” as part of their 90s medley on tour. “We’ve become friends with them [Backstreet Boys] at this point,” says Tyler Hubbard about their full fledged friendship with the boyband.
Watch the video for “God, Your Mama, And Me” featuring Backstreet Boys below!

Ryan Harrison Wins 1st ATP Title
24-year-old American Ryan Harrison won his first ATP title at the Memphis Open! The win puts Ryan back up to his career high ranking of #43 in the world, which he first reached in 2012. Since his breakout, Ryan has had a tough few seasons, but he never gave up. Ryan made it to both the singles and doubles finals in Memphis, with partner Stevie Johnson. Even though he lost in the doubles final, it means Ryan gets the full set of Memphis trophies: a Gibson guitar as singles champion, and a gold record as doubles runner-up. We’re glad to see Ryan playing well and hope he can keep the momentum going!
Juan Martin Del Potro Back In Action
Delpo is back this week, playing his first tournament of 2017 at the Delray Beach Open in Florida. Delpo decided to take a longer off season to rest, after leading Argentina to the Davis Cup title in late November of last year. Delpo’s 2017 campaign kicks off tonight against Kevin Anderson. Vamos!

Hunter Hayes just dropped the music video for his new single, “Yesterday’s Song!” The track is the first single of off Hunter’s upcoming 3rd full length album (and it’s so good we’ve left it playing on repeat since the first time we heard it). Hunter is always one to try out the latest technology to make more immersive experiences for his fans, and we love what he’s done with this video. The video, in collaboration with YouTube, is a Virtual Reality video that shows Hunter in the studio. You can see Hunter playing each instrument in the song, isolated: drums, guitar, vocals, sample machine, and more.
To watch the video on a computer, you’ll need to use Google Chrome browser. Make sure you use the navigation arrows to scroll around and see Hunter playing each instrument! Or, use a VR headset to get the full, immersive experience of the video. You’ll feel like you’re right in the studio with Hunter! Watch the video for “Yesterday’s Song” below!

Jake Miller just blessed us with another new track, “Parties!” We’re still crying over his tour cancellation tbh, but Jake is making it all better by dropping new music he’s been working on on SoundCloud. The new tracks he’s dropping just get better and better. Jake says he “stayed home from a party” to write this song, which is about not wanting to go out in case you run into your ex. Keep ’em coming, Jake!

Grigor Dimitrov Wins Hometown Tournament
Grigor won the Sofia Open, the first ATP World Tour tournament he’s played in his home country. He defeated David Goffin in the final, 7-5, 6-4, in front of an enthusiastic hometown crowd. The 12,000 capacity arena was sold out for the finals, with the Bulgarian fans out in full force to support Grigor. The win is Grigor’s 2nd title of the season, and brings his record for the year to 14-1. Let’s go Grisha!
Sasha Zverev Takes Singles & Doubles Titles In Montpellier
#NextGen star Sascha is also having a great 2017 so far. He just won the 2nd singles title of his career at the Open Sud de France, defeating hometown favorite Richard Gasquet, 7-6 (4), 6-3, in the final. Sascha then teamed up with his brother, Mischa Zverev, to win the doubles title, with a victory over Fabrice Martin and Daniel Nestor. This is the first time an ATP player has won both the singles and doubles titles in the same tournament since Lleyton Hewitt in 2014. The win also puts Sascha up to a career high ranking of #18 in the world, and at #1 in the #NextGenATP Race to Milan.
Toni Nadal To Step Down as Rafael Nadal’s Coach
The tennis world was shocked over the weekend when it was announced that Rafa’s uncle and longtime coach, Toni Nadal, would be stepping down at the end of 2017. Toni has worked with Rafa for most of his life and for his entire professional career to date. Carlos Moya joined Rafa’s coaching team before the start of this season. Toni will no longer travel with Rafa and will instead focus on training emerging players at the recently opened Rafa Nadal Academy in Majorca.
