Dierks Bentley Announces New Album, “Black”

Dierks Bentley just made our Monday by announcing he’s releasing a brand new album set for release in early 2016 called “Black!”  While there is no official release date yet, you can pre-order the album now at Dierks.com and get a special “Black Card,” which grants you exclusive access to songs, merch and other surprises.  You’ll also be entered in a contest to go to and meet Dierks on opening night of his 2016 tour AND win two tickets to EVERY SHOW on the tour.   (Dierks totally understands fangirls, this is the best contest ever…who wouldn’t want to follow Dierks around all Summer?!?)

As Dierks told Entertainment Weekly, the new album is inspired by Dierks’ decade long  marriage with his wife Caroline, whose maiden name is Black. The album explores the deepest corners of what it’s like to be in such a a strong relationship.  The heartfelt album is rumored to have a big rock sound to it, which is something country fans are no stranger to, and neither is Dierks.  He’s not afraid to change up his sound saying “If I was making a record to just to make a record… I would quit.”

Pre-sales for the album are available now on Dierks’ official website.  Join Dierks’ fanclub, The Congress to get exclusive first access to pre sale tickets and other cool prizes!  Stay tuned for an announcement of Dierk’s 2016 tour dates!

SecretFangirls.com Interview The Vamps

The Vamps Throw “Wake Up” Release Party In NYC

The Vamps played one final show for the year at Webster Hall in NYC, in celebration of the release of their sophomore album, “Wake Up.”   The show was one big party from start to finish, as Brad, James, Connor and Tristan played tracks from the new album along with their hit singles.  The energetic crowd knew every word and shouted and danced along with the band all night.

Near the middle of the set, the band announced they were going to do something “they’d never done before” as Brad moved from the stage to a box in the middle of the crowd.  He then played a solo, acoustic, unplugged rendition of “Shout It Out.”   It turned into a nice, intimate singalong for everyone.

It’s hard to believe The Vamps first headlining show (ever!) was in NYC nearly 2 years ago.  They’ve come a long way since then as a band – they’ve sold out the O2 Arena in London, gone on full arena tours around the world all while still remaining their silly selves and good friends.

The Vamps are fun to watch live because of the incredible energy they bring to every show.  They added in new instrumental parts to songs that displayed their musicianship and ability to keep their show fresh every night.  The guys even rearranged their hit song “Last Night” into a rousing and fun filled ska song that had the entire audience on their feet.

Near the end of their set, the band took time to do a Q&A with the audience answering all their fans’ burning questions from what’s their favorite pizza topping (Con likes chicken) to what song means the most to them (Brad said “Coming Home”).
