If you’ve ever seen The Wanted live, then you know Nathan Sykes can SING. While we’re still getting over The Wanted’s breakup, we are so excited that Nathan has been working on solo music. His new single, “Kiss Me Quick,” is a fun, soulful pop track. Nathan just announced his first US solo show at the Gramercy Theatre in NYC! Tickets go on sale this Friday, June 19th. Be ready because these are going to go quick!

Only two more weeks until NYC Goes Country! FarmBorough Festival, the city’s first ever country music festival is coming to Randall’s Island June 26-28, with an outstanding lineup of exciting new faces and familiar acts alike. We’ll be previewing the schedule for each day of the Festival leading up to the event. Up first: Day 1, Friday, June 26th!
1. Canaan Smith – Main Stage 3:00pm
Canaan is kicking the festival off, just days after the release of his debut album “Bronco.” We are so excited to see Canaan again and finally be able to sing along to every word (guitar solos included!) You don’t want to miss this set.
2. The Cadillac Three – Next From Nashville Stage 4:55pm
These guys know how to ROCK and will definitely get the party started. For a band that only has three members, The Cadillac Three sure know how to cause a raucous!
3. Maddie & Tae – Main Stage 5:00pm
Maddie & Tae are two tomatoes that certainly turned country music head over heels with their single “Girl In A Country Song” earlier this year. This duo is poised to fly right to the top of everyone’s “Must See” lists when this festival wraps up!
4. Chris Stapleton – Next From Nashville Stage 5:50pm
Chris has written some of the biggest recent hits to come out of Nashville and his soulful debut album is an instant classic! Chris gets rave reviews for his live performance as well, and we can’t wait to check it out.
5. Dierks Bentley – Main Stage 9:20pm
5-1-5-0 we’re going to go loco for Dierks’ headlining set! Country People’s Hottest Guy In Country is sure to heat up the stage as the sun sets on Farmborough’s inaugural evening. We can’t wait for the sure to be epic festival wide sing-along to “Drunk On A Plane.”
We really, really liked Carly Rae Jepsen’s last album, “Kiss,” and are so excited that we have a release date for her next album! Carly’s third studio album, “Emotion” will be released on August 21st following the success of her second viral video hit “I Really Like You.” The album will include that track, along with “All That” and the forthcoming single “Run Away With Me.” Carly will be performing on August 21st as part of The Today Show’s Summer Concert series to celebrate the album’s release!
Check out the album art and the track listing below.

Former CMT “Hottest Video Of The Year” winner Billy Currington is set to perform on ‘FOX & Friends’ All American Concert Series this Friday, June 12th. Billy is out promoting his brand new album “Summer Forever” with his current hit single, “Don’t It.” Make sure to tune into Fox News at 8am to catch the show, or if you’re in NYC head to 1211 Avenue of the Americas to see Billy in person!
It’s a hot week in Music City filled with CMAFest fanfare, and CMT just announced their 14th annual CMT On Tour headliners! Thomas Rhett and Brett Eldredge are joining forces for the co-headlining “Boots And Suits Tour” this Fall and they’re bringing Danielle Bradbury along for the ride!
Watch the tour announcement below. Tour dates will be announced later this summer and we expect it will sell out fast! You don’t want to miss Thomas shaking his Southside on stage every night. To make it a true co-headlining tour, Thomas and Brett will flip a coin each night to see who goes on first!
Kacey is on a roll and her brand new video for “Biscuits” is nothing short of a warm fluffy appetizer for her brand new album “Pageant Material” out on June 23rd! As usual, we love Kacey’s style (check out her band’s light up suits!) The video is a throwback to old school variety shows, or as Kacey describes it “Hee Haw meets Pee-wee’s Playhouse meets Wes Anderson.” Watch it below!
The band with the best hair in country music released their debut album, “Southernality,” today! A Thousand Horses are the perfect blend of true Southern roots and rock and roll. Their album was one of our most anticipated of the year, and we’ll be rocking out to it all Summer long. Our favorite tracks include “Travellin’ Man” and “Trailer Trashed.” The band also dropped the music video for their next single, “(This Ain’t No) Drunk Dial” today. Watch it below!
Pickup a copy of “Southernality” on iTunes or Amazon now! You can catch A Thousand Horses on tour with Darius Rucker all Summer long. They’ll also be headlining at the Emporium in Long Island, NY in July!
We’re still recovering from the fangirl-fest that is the Wheels Up Tour! One of the highlights of the show is when opening act Hunter Hayes joins Lady Antebellum on stage for a couple of tracks. They took the collaboration one step further and are featured on Hunter’s new digital track, “Where It All Begins!” We’d like to make a request they add this to the setlist for the next leg of the Wheels Up Tour! (We’re going again, obvi). The track comes just a couple of weeks after Hunter dropped his new single, “21,” and is the first of several digital tracks he will be dropping this Summer. Listen below!
Visit LadyAntebellum.com and HunterHayes.com to check out their upcoming tour dates! The Wheels Up Tour is one Summer show you don’t want to miss!
Thomas Rhett just released the music video for his funky new single “Crash and Burn.” The video shows Thomas trying to win back a girl, who somehow isn’t impressed by his sweet car, jacket and dance moves, or by him standing outside her window with a boombox in the rain – “Say Anything”-style. We love the contrast between the songs lyrics and its upbeat tempo. You can’t help but dance along – even poor, heartbroken music video Thomas can’t help but smile! Watch the video below.
MKTO dropped a brand new song earlier this week and we didn’t have to wait very long for the premiere of their video! Malcolm and Tony have been hard at work on tour and writing new music since we saw them breakthrough last year with their infectious track “Classic.” The brand new single, “Bad Girls” has a solid beat and a funky horn section that we’ll be dancing to all Summer long! We love the music video, too. Watch what happens when MKTO get kidnapped by some bad girls … who end up being fangirls.
