#COUNTRYREWIND - LAINEY WILSON MAKES LATE NIGHT TELEVISION DEBUT ON JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE!

"One of Country music’s most promising young stars” (Whiskey Riff), Lainey Wilson made her late night television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! last night, performing her No. 1 GOLD Certified hit “Things A Man Oughta Know.” Claiming the top spot on the MediaBase and Billboard Country radio charts in September, the fan-favorite song is still a streaming giant, racking up more than 3M on-demand streams each week.
 
“That certainly wasn’t my first late night but it was the first time I let them air it on television…” laughed Lainey. “What an incredible experience through and through. I felt like a million bucks in my head-to-toe red get-up, and appreciate the warm welcome from the entire Jimmy Kimmel Live! crew. Thank you for making it so special, y’all are world class.”

Lainey just wrapped the Jason Aldean’s Back In The Saddle Tour and is slated to release a new single later this month.

DUSTIN LYNCH MAKES BUZZWORTHY “SMALL TOWN BOY” DEBUT ON ABC's JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE!

New Single Coming In Hot Following Sizzling #1 Smash "Seein' Red

Showing off his undeniable talent – and humor – Broken Bow Records’ DUSTIN LYNCH hit late-night television for a buzzworthy debut of his brand new single, “Small Town Boy,” on ABC's JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! last night (4/4).

The charming small town Tullahoma, Tennessee, native had the captivated live studio audience grooving to the laid-back, modern country pulse with a classic theme – which is all about the simple “truth” in true love.

And when Lynch with a big ol’ grin sang, “She likes my T-shirt,” he hilariously exposed his own T-shirt under his sleek leather jacket which featured a black-and-white photo of host Jimmy Kimmel’s longtime nemesis, actor Matt Damon. Pre-performance, Kimmel quipped, “Here with a song ‘Small Town Boy’ and a very bad T-shirt…Dustin Lynch!”



Written by Rhett Akins, Ben Hayslip, and Kyle Fishman, and produced by Zach Crowell (Sam Hunt, Carrie Underwood), “Small Town Boy” is quickly gaining traction at Country radio while its official audio clip has already surpassed 2.7 million views on YouTube.

Lynch is back on the road supporting FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE’s explosive DIG YOUR ROOTS TOUR 2017 until the run wraps May 6 in Quebec, Canada. Then he'll join BRAD PAISLEY on May 18 to kick off the summer leg of his 2017 world tour in Saratoga Springs, New York.

LOCASH MAKES MORNING SHOW DEBUT ON NBC'S TODAY SHOW WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24TH AND LATE NIGHT DEBUT ON ABC'S JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! WEDNESDAY, MARCH 16TH

One of the feel good stories in country music during the past year is the success story of Reviver Records recording duo LOCASH. Consisting of Preston Brust and Chris Lucas, they've watched as “I Love This Life,” has climbed all the way to No. 2 on the Billboard airplay chart.

Watching the rise of the song, which was co-written by veteran songwriter Danny Myrick and Academy of Country Music Awards nominee Chris Janson, has been a moment that the duo will never forget.

“Hard work is really starting to pay off for us,” says Chris Lucas. “We have been seeing the response live. People are singing it back to us. It’s an amazing feeling, for sure.” Brust agrees, adding, “Every day is so exciting. I know this sounds like a cliché, but dreams do come true. We have worked so hard to get to this point. It’s so surreal.”

And, with 2016 in gear, the good times are only going to get better. On February 24, LOCASH will make their network morning show debut on NBC’s The Today Show from New York City, and will guest on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live just a few weeks later, on March 16.

The Today Show is one of the most iconic network shows of all time,” says Brust. “When you think about all of the artists that have gotten a chance to showcase their talents on that platform, you realize just how lucky you are.” As far as the Kimmel appearance, Lucas says it’s just more of their goals being realized. "Come on, late-night network television, man! Who doesn’t dream of that? We’re just so blessed and grateful for everything that is going on right now with our careers, and our team that has gotten us where we are. I think if you talked to Preston or me, either one of us would definitely say… 'I Love This Life.'"

LOCASH has also just released their follow-up to their smash hit, with “I Know Somebody” beginning to make an impact at radio.
