CHAPEL HART ANNOUNCES UPCOMING ALBUM "GLORY DAYS", OUT MAY 19

Trio tease new song “Welcome To Fist City,” inspired and requested by the late Loretta Lynn

Powerhouse country trio is set to perform on The CMT Music Awards April 2 on CBS

Pre-order Glory Days HERE

Powerhouse trio CHAPEL HART – comprised of sisters Danica and Devynn Hart and first cousin Trea Swindle – took the world by storm on America’s Got Talent last year with their show-stopping group golden buzzer performance of the Dolly Parton inspired track, “You Can Have Him Jolene.”

Dolly loved it, but she wasn't the only one who was impressed – the late Loretta Lynn also saw Chapel Hart's TV audition, and requested that the trio put their spin on one of her songs, too.

Today, the ladies, deemed “America’s Sweethearts” following the show, give fans a first listen to “Welcome To Fist City,” a song inspired and requested by the late country legend – with their take on Lynn's 1968 hit "Fist City." 

Listen HERE.

“’Welcome to Fist City’ feels like 1968 revamped to right now,” shares Danica. “I really believe Ms. Loretta would’ve been so proud! I’d like to believe the generation who laid the foundation just wants to know that they are leaving country music in capable hands, and my prayer is that we are doing just that. I hope we are making them proud!”

The song is from their upcoming album Glory Days, due out May 19. The new album, the trio’s third, will be their first full-length project since finishing in the Top 5 on AGT and includes the title track and previously released single, “Glory Days.” Danica, Devynn, and Trea have a hand in writing every song on the much-anticipated new project which is available for pre-save/pre-add starting today.

“I’ve never been more excited about delivering new music to our fans,” shares Danica. “We’ve been through so much together and sharing the highs and lows of our ‘GLORY DAYS’ through song has indeed been the joy of our lives!”


Since America’s Got Talent, the ladies have quickly become a mainstay in the country music industry – they made their Grand Ole Opry debut in 2022, receiving FOUR standing ovations, and kicked off the new year with their 60+ date Glory Days headlining tour, and as previously announced, are set to perform at the CMT Music Awards on April 2nd on CBS.

Chapel Hart is quickly earning high marks from critics as they prepare for the release of their new album – GLORY DAYS – on May 19:

“The trio are here to lift our spirits and remind us all that the journey is just as 

important as the destination" 

- Holler

“…one of the most incredible acts to grace this genre in a long time.”

- Country Swag

"On the familial trio’s latest, 'Glory Days,' they return to the positivity and sass found on some of their earlier releases, along with their signature earthy, smooth harmonies." 

- Billboard

“Chapel Hart relish in the current chapter of their career, which they refer to as the ‘Glory Days’…the new song depicts the highs and lows of their journey and reveals that even through the struggles, they’d do it all again in a heartbeat.” 

- Country Now

“America's Got Talent stars-turned-rising-country-trio Chapel Hart deliver a new dose of joy, perspective and freedom with ‘Glory Days,’ a new song that soaks up every 

second of the good times…"

- Taste of Country

“The trio — the Hart sisters and their first cousin Trea Swindle — mixes the sibling-infused harmonies of the Chicks, the cheeky humor of the Pistol Annies and the 

turn-it-up moxie of Gretchen Wilson.” – Star Tribune

MUSIC HEALTH ALLIANCE CELEBRATES TEN YEARS OF HELPING TO "HEAL THE MUSIC"

Music Health Alliance (MHA), the music industry’s critical non-profit healthcare resource, is marking major milestones in its mission to provide free healthcare advocacy and resources to music industry professionals. As the non-profit celebrates its first decade of providing free healthcare advocacy and support to a largely self-employed industry, MHA is uniquely positioned to continue to heal the music in the decades to come.

Music Health Alliance’s mission is to create a safe and confidential place for the music community to gain the very best healthcare and health insurance solutions through defined and transparent advocacy services, with an emphasis on the prevention of illness and overall wellness. 

Since 2013, MHA has:
Saved more than $100,000,000 in healthcare costs

• Provided free advocacy and support to over 20,000 music industry clients in 50 states
• Facilitated more than 3,200 counseling sessions through MHA’s Mental Health Fund
• Saved nearly 2,500 families from bankruptcy due to medical bills
• Provided life-saving diagnostic care to 57 clients through the Ben Eyestone Fund
• Aided 31 individuals in securing life-saving heart, liver, kidney and lung transplants
• Provided access to more than 1,000,000 meals during the COVID-19 pandemic “In ten years 

MHA has gone from just an idea to a thriving organization that has served tens of thousands and saved over $100 million in healthcare costs to keep the music playing across this country,” says Tatum Allsep, Music Health Alliance Founder and CEO. “MHA’s success is possible because we have a fierce staff, dedicated Board of Directors and encouraging donors and community who sincerely believe in our mission to Heal The Music. Thank you all and cheers to 10 years!”

The 15 person team at MHA continue the non-profit’s mission to provide free healthcare advocacy, access and resources to the music industry, more than 75% of whom are self-employed. Songwriters, musicians, performers, producers, engineers, venue operators, artist managers, agents, publishers, business managers, and more have had access to critical medicine, mental health resources, diagnostic tests, lifesaving transplants, end of life care and many other necessary services.

Reggie is one of the many music industry professionals who have received free healthcare advocacy and support from MHA. The 41 year-old tour manager lost his right arm below the elbow when he was injured in a tragic accident witnessed by his wife and children. He was quickly referred to MHA as he had no health insurance. Music Health Alliance was able to secure affordable coverage and negotiate his more than $500,000 in medical bills down to zero. By helping Reggie navigate the healthcare process, MHA enabled him to secure a neurobionics prosthetic arm, allowing him to resume his music career, and arranged trauma counseling for the entire family. By providing access to health insurance, negotiating medical costs, and navigating the healthcare process, MHA was able to provide affordable solutions for an otherwise debilitating and career-ending healthcare crisis. “Music Health Alliance literally put my life and family back together when we thought all hope was lost,” said Reggie. “We thought we were going to lose our house and I thought I would never be able to work again. They saved us.”

During a kickoff event held at Nashville’s Gibson Garage yesterday, multi-platinum entertainer Dierks Bentley, a longtime supporter and client of MHA, joined the celebration as celebrity ambassador.

“Healthcare is the ultimate thing you can offer your team out there on the road,” shared Bentley. “Having 30 people on my team, it is tough to navigate insurance and healthcare and having MHA to help us figure it out and uncover benefits we didn’t even know were available. They’ve helped us save so much over 10 years and $100 MILLION industry wide...it's just incredible!”

As MHA begins its tenth year of serving the music industry, it is honored to establish the Richard M. Bates SMILE Fund, named in memory of music enthusiast and the Walt Disney Company’s longtime SVP, Government Relations. The Richard M. Bates SMILE Fund is the music industry’s first dedicated fund for dental health. Through the generosity and vision of Richard Bates’s family and friends, and matching grants from The Walt Disney Company, music professionals of all ages will no longer need to forgo critical dental healthcare that is often costly and not covered by medical insurance.

“Our family is very grateful to support something so meaningful and lasting,” said his widow Mrs. Rose Bates. “Richard would have been quite touched by this honor while being thrilled that it will help so many musicians with their health-related concerns.”

Music makers of all genres who are in need of critical dental healthcare will now be able to access qualifying grants through the Fund, with applications accessible here. The Richard M. Bates SMILE Fund will not only bring smiles, but will also make a significant impact on MHA’s mission to heal the music.

Entirely funded through grants and individual and corporate donations, financial support from the music community is critical to continue Music Health Alliance’s advocacy and free services. 86% of all dollars donated go directly to MHA’s programs and services - for every $1 donation, MHA is able to provide $30 in life-saving healthcare resources to Heal The Music.

As the non-profit enters its tenth year of healing the music, MHA is launching The Visionary Circle, an annual giving society to recognize generous friends who are invested in the ongoing success and future vision of Music Health Alliance. The future of MHA lies in the belief that no member of our music industry family should ever have to face a healthcare crisis alone, and The Visionary Circle will make an immediate impact on the scope of MHA’s work and ensure it can continue to heal the music for generations to come. Find additional information here.

MHA fights so those in our industry never have to feel alone in a health crisis and removes obstacles so patients can receive lifesaving care. MHA continues to advocate on behalf of songwriters, producers, audio engineers, musicians, recording artists, publishers and more across the country. Thanks to the direct efforts of MHA, over 20,000 members of the music community across the country have gained access to lifesaving transplants, medicine, mental health resources, end of life care and many other necessary services. Its services are free to any person who has worked in the music industry for two or more years or who has credited contributions to 4 commercially released recordings or videos. Spouses, partners, and children of qualifying individuals may also receive access to the non-profit’s services from birth to end of life.

CRAIG MORGAN JOINS THE USO IN BRINGING A "TASTE OF HOME" TO U.S. SERVICE MEMBERS DEPLOYED IN GERMANY

When our service members can’t be home for the holidays, the United Service Organizations (USO) takes home to our service members. 17-year Army veteran Craig Morgan joined the nonprofit on a three-day trip, from December 19 to 21, to Germany where the country music star performed three concerts for troops and their families stationed at USAG Bavaria.

Morgan, who was active duty for 10.5 years and a member of the U.S. Reserves for 6.5 years, was reunited with the 101st and 82nd Airborne Divisions while touring USAG Bavaria, both of which he was a part during his years of service. Since Morgan’s first USO tour in 2002, he has visited 15 countries during 13 tours, entertaining more than 45,000 U.S. troops and their families.

“It’s always an honor and a privilege to visit with our troops and their families, but especially during the holiday season,” said Morgan. “I know how much it means to them to receive those care packages at this time of the year and to hear those messages of gratitude from Americans everywhere who value the incredible sacrifices they make year-round.”

Find tour photos here. 

“Serving overseas over the holiday season, sometimes far from family and friends, can be difficult,” said Jennifer Wahlquist, Vice President, USO Global Entertainment. “We’re grateful to the wonderful entertainers like Craig who generously donate their time to bring holiday cheer and a connection to home to our service members.” “We are so thankful for Craig Morgan taking the time to visit with and perform for our Soldiers and family members," said Audre Binder, Director, Family and Morale, Welfare, and Recreation at United States Army Garrison Bavaria. "And it's even more special because Craig knows what it's like to be away from loved ones during the holidays, as a former servicemember himself. He has just an incredible way of connecting with everyone here."

Bringing entertainment to the troops is a cornerstone of the USO’s mission to strengthen America’s service members through connection. More than 75,000 service members participate in USO Entertainment tours annually, and more than 50,000 military members have attended virtual celebrity visits through the USO Military Virtual Programming Entertainment Series (USO MVP) during the last two years.

JESSICA WILLIS FISHER MAKES FIRST DAYTIME TV APPEARANCE IN SUPPORT OF POWERFUL, PERSONAL MEMOIR ON "TAMRON HALL"

"Unspeakable: Surviving My Childhood and Finding My Voice"

 Is Available Everywhere Now

Upon the release of her hauntingly beautiful and brave personal memoir, Unspeakable: Surviving My Childhood and Finding My Voice, Americana singer/songwriter Jessica Willis Fisher made her first daytime TV appearance in support of the book on Tamron Hall with an interview and performance on November 1st. The powerful interview can be seen HERE, and her performance of her autobiographical song “My History” from her critically-acclaimed debut album, Brand New Day, can be seen HERE. Unspeakable is now available everywhere.

Following major editorial coverage in publications such as her in-depth Sunday portfolio cover story with The Tennessean, features with Forbes and Everything Nash, and early excerpts released through People and Taste Of Country, Jessica rounded out release week with an appearance on WSM’s Coffee, Country and Cody this morning, and will perform on the Grand Ole Opry tomorrow, Saturday, November 5.

Also out today is Jessica’s brand-new Christmas track, a gorgeous cover of Celine Dion’s “Don’t Save It All For Christmas Day,” available everywhere now. Jessica will release her rendition of “Tennessee Christmas” on November 25.

Using the written word as her witness statement, Jessica Willis Fisher gives a lacerating portrait of a girl finding her voice after years of being silenced in Unspeakable -- an elegant, harrowing story of the manipulation and codependency that defines abusive family relationships.

BookTrib praises, “I was not expecting the depth at which Fisher would share her world, nor how gracefully she would navigate it for us...Unspeakable is a book that should be read, by girls and women who may think that they will forever be defined by the things that happen to them.”

Growing up the eldest daughter in a large, highly controlled, fundamentalist Christian household, Jessica was groomed to write songs and perform with her family’s touring group, The Willis Clan. Jessica was expected to conform to her father's disturbing and chaotic teachings, but she survived his mental, physical, and sexual abuse.

Her family shot to fame after an appearance on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” and soon after had their own reality show on TLC - “The Willis Family”- for two seasons. The world loved this beautiful family of 12 kids; young and vivacious, the Willis's presented themselves to be extraordinary and happy. But the older and wiser Jessica got, the more she had to face that what was going on behind closed doors would forever be escalating.

Publisher’s Weekly declares, “In this wrenching debut memoir, singer-songwriter Fisher recounts the “mental, emotional, spiritual” as well as brutal physical and sexual abuse she suffered at the hands of her father, Toby Willis […] It’s a painful story, but it’s bravely told, for herself and “other little invisible girls and boys.”

Beautifully written and monumental in its bravery, Unspeakable captures the beauty and ugliness of a young woman finding her way—filled with longing, fear, confusion, secrecy, but most importantly, hope for the future.

Unspeakable follows the release of Jessica’s critically-acclaimed debut solo album, Brand New Day, earlier this year. The dynamic project finds her discovering that there is indeed a way forward through music. An emotional centerpiece of the album, “My History” was the first song Jessica wrote after taking a multi-year hiatus from creating, following her escape from the unhealthy environment of her upbringing. Brand New Day musically represents her new start at life and helped her reclaim her voice through music.

JESSICA WILLIS FISHER RELEASES PIANO VERSION OF "MY HISTORY" IN SUPPORT OF NEWLY CREATED "THE BRAND NEW DAY FUND"

Americana singer/songwriter Jessica Willis Fisher has released a stunning piano version of her powerful song “My History,” out everywhere today HERE. The autobiographical song, which first appeared on her critically-acclaimed solo album Brand New Day, finds her discovering that there is indeed a way forward through music.

Growing up the eldest daughter in a large, highly controlled, fundamentalist Christian household, Jessica was groomed to write songs and perform with her family’s touring group The Willis Clan. She was expected to conform to her father's disturbing and chaotic teachings, but she survived his abuse. An emotional centerpiece of the album, “My History” was the first song Jessica wrote after taking a multi-year hiatus from creating, following her escape from the unhealthy environment of her upbringing. Brand New Day musically represents her new start at life and helped her reclaim her voice through music.

All artist proceeds from this special version of “My History” will go towards Jessica’s newly created charitable fund called The Brand New Day Fund, which supports a variety of organizations and causes close to her heart.

“Writing and music have played such an important role in my story and my healing,” Jessica shares. “There was a time I was unsure I would ever be able to come back to claim music for myself in a healthy way, so I am so grateful for the chance to share these songs straight from the heart on my own terms for the first time. Music can be such a powerful therapy and I want to do my part in making the world a safer, stronger, more beautiful place.”

Grateful for her second chance, Jessica wants her story to help others. She established The Brand New Day Fund with The Community Foundation because of her passion for the prevention of childhood sexual abuse and domestic violence, and facilitating cooperation between advocates, lawmakers, law enforcement, and victims. She also believes strongly in the healing power of music as a therapy, and seeks to help women and young adults rise above their past traumatic experiences to build safe, healthy lives for themselves.

Music Health Alliance (MHA), recently honored with the 2021 CMA Foundation Humanitarian Award, unveiled its inaugural “Coulda, Shoulda, Woulda” event last night, headlined by four of Music City’s hottest songwriters ‑ HARDY, Randy Montana, Hunter Phelps and Jameson Rodgers – performing songs in the round that “coulda, shoulda, woulda” been a smash along with their biggest hits. The evening of stories and songs, hosted by Country Countdown USA’s Lon Helton at City Winery, raised $125,000 to support the Nashville-based non-profit’s free healthcare programs and life-saving advocacy services.

“Coulda, Shouda, Woulda” — an old Southern expression for wistful regret, marks the fate of many a good song. Placed unfinished in the back of a drawer, left off an album it didn’t quite fit, every songwriter is haunted by the songs that didn’t seem to get a fair shake. This is how Grammy-winning songwriter Liz Rose came up with the idea for “Coulda, Shouda, Woulda,” a one-of-a-kind event where top songwriters get to pull out the songs that “coulda, shouda, woulda,” and finally give them their day. Join us to hear songwriters play their best songs with the worst luck, the songs they wished they had written, and of course the hits that did get their due.

For every $1 donation, MHA is able to provide $30 in life-saving healthcare resources to Heal The Music. Working tirelessly the powerhouse team of 12 women assist music industry professionals with the entire spectrum of their healthcare needs, ranging from assistance with medical bills or physical and mental health guidance that includes finding doctors or prescription medicine, finding financial grants while recovering from a serious health issue, affordable health insurance, or answers to Medicare questions.

Based in Nashville, MHA has provided free healthcare advocacy and support to more than 18,000 music industry members across 49 states in the non-profit’s first nine years - songwriters, musicians, performers, producers, engineers, venue operators, artist managers, agents, publishers, business managers, and more - by providing access to medicine, mental health resources, COVID-19 relief, diagnostic tests, lifesaving transplants, end of life care and many other necessary services, saving more than $85,000,000 in healthcare costs for the nationwide music community in less than a decade. Entirely funded through grants and individual and corporate donations, financial support from the music community is critical to continue MHA’s advocacy and free services.

In response to the pandemic, Music Health Alliance’s COVID-19 Relief Plan was created to provide direct support for the immediate needs of music industry professionals and their families during this public health crisis through relief grants, simplified solutions and a comprehensive database of resources. MHA fights so those in our industry never have to feel alone in a health crisis and removes obstacles so patients can receive lifesaving care. Its services are free to any person who has worked in the music industry for three or more years or who has credited contributions to 4 commercially released recordings or videos.

JESSICA WILLIS FISHER'S SOLO ALBUM "BRAND NEW DAY" IS AVAILABLE NOW

Jessica To Host Album Release Party & Show TONIGHT and Perform On 

The Grand Ole Opry This Friday

Jessica Tapped To Perform At AMERICANAFEST In September

Guided by joy, courage, and gratitude, Americana singer/songwriter Jessica Willis Fisher is reclaiming her voice with the release of her debut solo album, Brand New Day, which is out everywhere today HERE. Produced by Ben Fowler, Brand New Day features 10 original songs, 8 of which Jessica wrote entirely on her own.

Tapping into the most vulnerable moments of her life, Jessica begins an authentic new journey after a dramatic and sudden departure from her family’s band. Until recently, Jessica has stayed out of the public eye since leaving her family’s touring group, The Willis Clan (TLC’s “The Willis Family,” “America’s Got Talent”) after her father was arrested and jailed for sexual abuse.

Brand New Day centers her story with expressive vocals and acoustic arrangements. The album ranges from the romance of “Hopelessly, Madly” to the contemplation of “The Lucky One,” and optimism in the album’s title track. She also revives “Slow Me Down,” a ballad about being present in the moment, which she previously recorded with her family. Her personal struggle to find freedom is evident on the album’s first single, “Fire Song,” a co-write with GRAMMY award-winner Jon Randall (The Marfa Tapes, “Whiskey Lullabye”), but she finds that freedom in the foot-stomping "Gone." An emotional centerpiece of the project, “My History” finds her discovering that there is indeed a way forward through music.

“I’ve truly lived every word on this album. That’s why these songs are both so much more vulnerable and empowering for me,” says Jessica. “If someone truly resonates with them, we both get to feel seen. Together, we know we are not alone as we begin again, each and every day.”

Jessica has a jam-packed week in celebration of Brand New Day – she will be hosting an album release party tonight, April 13th, at 7pm where she will perform all 10 tracks live at Analog, the live music venue at The Hutton Hotel in Nashville. Jessica will be taking over Americana Music Association’s official Instagram page tomorrow, April 14th, she will return to the circle on the Grand Ole Opry stage this Friday, April 15th, and perform at Wines in the Fork Festival in Leiper’s Fork, TN on Saturday, April 16th.

As previously announced this morning HERE, Jessica will make her debut at this year’s AMERICANAFEST, with an official showcase where she will perform a set that will include songs from the new album. Official showcases are curated by the AMERICANAFEST showcase selection committee. AMERICANAFEST brings together legendary artists, the next generation of rising stars, fans, and industry professionals for multiple days of music and education. The must-attend event for anyone who loves Americana's influences including roots, folk, country, blues and soul-based music will be held in Nashville on Wednesday, September 14 through Saturday, September 17, 2022.

Critics are praising Jessica Willis Fisher:

“Fisher is an adept fiddle player with an angelic voice and iron will…”

- CMT.com

"The forthcoming album showcases her Dolly Parton-style quiver in bluegrass, folk, country and blues/rock shadings. Her voice and writing recognize a dark history while convincingly embracing a brighter horizon.”

- Billboard

“Every song on the album shows a different way of looking at renewal and shares a different chapter of Fisher’s story, so far...”

- American Songwriter

“Anyone who can’t get enough of Alison Krauss will find a wealth of good music & vocals from this young fiddle player. Ms. Fisher explores country, bluegrass & despite her own dark history, she adds her own sweet personality to allow everything to be an antidote for anyone feeling blue or challenged….considering the hard life Fisher experienced it’s amazing her voice is so filled with brightness & beauty. She provides uplifting & mature songs filled with joy, courage & optimism.”

- Americana Highways

“….a glimpse at the powerful woman that has come out of the ashes in recent years, after her famous family, the Willis Clan, found themselves tangled up in a tragic set of circumstances that could have left Fisher just a shell of what she once was. But instead, she finds herself stronger than ever before.”

- Taste of Country

“Americana singer/songwriter Jessica Willis Fisher reclaims her voice and shares her brave story of survival with her debut album, Brand New Day.”

- Country Now

“Y’all know I love Alison Krauss, and I’m very excited to introduce you to a rising artist who is essentially Alison 2.0...definitely check out

Jessica Willis Fisher...”

- Dierks Bentley, on Nashville Country Countdown

“These two events were planned to not only serve the new clubs that received the grant money, but also provide an opportunity for everyone in the Nashville community to come out and enjoy a day out at the lake to celebrate fishing and the outdoors,” said Scott Ellison, MLF Promotions Manager. “We have three excellent special guests lined up for attendees to hear from, and we’re sure to see some big fish brought to the MLF scales during the tournament weigh-in on Percy Priest.”

Good Day For Living, his inaugural project with new label home and tenth studio album, ushers in a new era of classic-influenced country music from Nichols, one of the format’s most-lauded 21st-century traditionalists. His first new full-length project in four years, the 13-song collection reunites Nichols with acclaimed music producers Mickey Jack Cones and Derek George, who helmed his 2013 album Crickets containing back-to-back number 1 GOLD-certified hits "Sunny and 75" and "Yeah.” Cones also produced Nichols’ follow-up album, critically acclaimed Never Gets Old.

The title track, penned by Dave Cohen, Bobby Hambrick, and Neil Mason, impacting country radio now, is already getting rave reviews:

“On this upbeat title track to his upcoming album — his first full-length project in over four years — Nichols continues with the signature neo-traditional sound that has been so prevalent on some of his No. 1 Country Airplay hits like ‘Sunny and 75’ and ‘Gimme That Girl,’ a blend of old-school song construction with a modern sheen.” — Billboard

“…Joe Nichols is BACK – and from the sound of his new music, he’s picking up right where he left off….It’s the kind of feel-good song that Joe does so well – one that fits him perfectly and one that will probably take you back to some of the Joe Nichols songs you loved back in the early 2000s (‘Good Day For Living’)…Country music needs more Joe Nichols. And I’m glad we’re finally getting it.” — Whiskey Riff

“The title tune of Joe’s new CD is a rouser with loads of forward momentum and a can’t-miss chorus. As always, he sings his face off.” — Music Row

“...the feel-good track captures all that’s to love about living as soon as one hits pause, slows down, and appreciates the littlest things around them. The lyrics are simple and relatable — a good ol’ country song.”— Taste of Country

Songs already released from the forthcoming album include "Home Run,” written by Ashley Gorley, Dallas Davidson and Ross Copperman, “Screened In,” penned by Neil Thrasher and Anthony Jerome Martin, and "I Wanna Be Your Tonight," written by Philip O’Donnell, Wade Kirby and Marv Green. The entire project is a no-doubt nod to Nichols’ traditional roots, including Saturday night dancehall stunner “Brokenhearted,” the light and fun “I Got Friends That Do,” featuring Blake Shelton, and the classic country tear-jerker “She Was.”

About Joe Nichols:
Multi-platinum Quartz Hill Records’ Joe Nichols is one of country music’s most-lauded recording artists. A 21st century traditionalist, Nichols is an artist who is both timely and timeless – one who has racked up a half-dozen Number 1 singles and ten Top 10 hits with a sound that blurs the boundaries between country music's past and present. It's an approach that has earned Nichols three GRAMMY nominations, a CMA award, an ACM trophy, a CMT “Breakthrough Video of the Year” Award as well as multiple gold and platinum-certified records. Nichols’ additional honors include awards from Billboard, Radio & Records and Music Row Magazine as well as a New York Times “Best-Albums-of-the-Year” nod.

RALEIGH KEEGAN RELEASES BRAND NEW TRACK "NEW TO NASHVILLE" FROM FORTHCOMING EP "A TALE OF 7 CITIES"

Photo credit - David McClister 

Breakout Country artist Raleigh Keegan has released a brand-new track called “New To Nashville,” available everywhere now at https://vyd.co/NewToNashville. Written by Keegan with Daniel Leathersich and Ryan Brisotti, “New To Nashville” is the first track from his forthcoming new EP, A Tale of 7 Cities. The new EP follows his critically acclaimed debut full-length album, Clocks Roll Forward, which released last October. “I wanted to start with ‘Nashville’ because it’s where I am now,” shares Raleigh of the new track. “A place where dreams are made, but no shortage of dreams don’t come true also. This song tells both sides of that story.”

He recently offered a sneak peek acoustic performance of “New To Nashville” on Instagram @raleighkeegan

“New To Nashville” is the first of seven city-themed songs from A Tale of 7 Cities, which he has co-produced with Chad Judd. “When I am trying to decide what to do next with my music, I look through my phone full of songs that I have written and start trying to recognize themes or patterns,” Raleigh says of the EP. “I noticed that I had a few songs with city titles in them, and thought about the classic ‘A Tale Of Two Cities.’ As a songwriter, I frequently flip things and try to make them different. I’m also a sucker for an alliteration, so I modified it to ‘A Tale of 7 Cities’ because I love how it sounds. That’s where this journey all began!”

Honesty is front and center in Raleigh’s songwriting. As an independent artist, Raleigh has always been driven. He sold his house in order to pay for his first EP and pounded the pavement by booking over 150 shows per year on his own in the first 3 years of his career, including an opening slot for Keith Urban.  He has grown his loyal social media fan base to nearly 150k followers and has more than 200k monthly listeners across platforms.

Raleigh has accumulated nearly 10 million streams across his catalog to date, and has opened for artists such as Eric Church, Brothers Osborne, Florida Georgia Line, Thomas Rhett, Drake White, and Mitchell Tenpenny.  Raleigh has been featured in publications such as Tennessean, People,  Rolling Stone,  American Songwriter,  Billboard,  Music Row, and more.

#COUNTRYGIVESBACK - DICKSON COUNTY CRAIG MORGAN FOUNDATION PARTNERS WITH COMMUNITY TO BRING CHRISTMAS TO MORE THAN 120 CHILDREN IN FOSTER CARE

Another reason I love the country music genre and why it's so special ...

The Dickson County Craig Morgan Foundation (DCCMF) has teamed up with the local community to spread holiday cheer throughout Dickson County. DCCMF purchased presents for more than 120 children in foster care in Dickson County to help ensure everyone will have a very Merry Christmas. Gifts include bicycles and power wheels assembled by local firefighters; students from Creek Wood and Dickson County High Schools wrapped presents prior to being delivered to foster care families.

“I’m thrilled that everyone came together to make Christmas brighter for children in foster care in Dickson County - from the firefighters to high school students, so many people gave of their time to contribute to this special cause,” shared Dickson County resident, country music entertainer and Army veteran, Craig Morgan.

“It starts with a single wish list from each child, then the community, DCS and the Dickson County Craig Morgan Foundation work side by side to ensure the foster children have their wishes fulfilled,” said Department of Children’s Services' Jackie (Hopkins) Poteet. “For some of these children, these gifts under a tree on Christmas morning is a first ­— first real Nike shoes, first bicycle, first Barbie house or first necklace. Those items mean so much to these children who have never had it before. Craig Morgan has found a way to spread some happiness to over 120 foster care children and how amazing is that!”

#COUNTRYGIVESBACK - LAINE HARDY TEAMS UP WITH WILD WING CAFE AND LITTLE KIDS ROCK TO SUPPORT MUSIC EDUCATION IN SCHOOLS

Six Market Tour Kicking Off Dec. 2 Includes School Visits and Free Concerts at Wild Wing Cafe Locations in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia

American Idol Winner Laine Hardy is teaming up with Wild Wing Cafe, a Carolinas-born restaurant chain and Little Kids Rock, a national nonprofit that champions music education in schools, for a six-market tour that kicks off in Warner Robins, GA on Dec. 2 and concludes in Wild Wing Cafe’s headquarters city of Charlotte, N.C. on Dec. 10. Other stops include: Anderson, SC (Dec. 4), Raleigh, NC (Dec. 6), Savannah, GA (Dec. 7) and Columbia, SC (Dec. 9).

“Growing up in a town with a population of 2000, our schools didn’t have much of a music education program so I had to figure it out on my own with the help of my family,” said 21-year-old Hardy, a native of Livingston, Louisiana, who picked up his first guitar at age six. “It’s really important to me to help nurture the artists of tomorrow, giving back to my own schools and others through Little Kids Rock.”

In each market, during the day Laine will visit a Little Kids Rock partner school presenting musical instrument gifts and that night, perform a free concert including songs from his recently released debut album, Here’s To Anyone, at the local Wild Wing Cafe.

“For more than 30 years, live music has been an important part of the Wild Wing Cafe brand with now famous singers and songwriters performing on our stages early in their careers including: Luke Combs, Edwin McCain, Old Dominion, Zac Brown and Hootie & the Blowfish, to name a few,” said Wild Wing Cafe CEO, Steve Weigel. “Having Laine Hardy tour our stages strengthens our commitment to emerging artists and delivers a real treat to our guests.”

Since 2002, Little Kids Rock has reached more than a million students with highly inclusive and culturally relevant music education. Today, more than 550,000 kids currently participate in Little Kids Rock programs.

“We love this collaboration with Laine Hardy and Wild Wing Cafe because it allows us to further our mission of expanding music education in schools with a real-life success story while providing some excitement to students and Wild Wing customers,” said David Wish, Founder & CEO of Little Kids Rock.

“Laine Hardy is a true Louisiana Ambassador. He could have celebrated the release of his first album anywhere, but chose to celebrate at the New Orleans Jazz Museum because of his love of this state, the people and our unique culture,” says Louisiana Lieutenant Governor Billy Nungesser. “His desire to help his fellow Louisianans and bring awareness to the recovery efforts following Hurricane Ida truly shows the outstanding character of this young man, and further exemplifies why we are fortunate to have him represent our state.”

TIFFANY WOYS SET TO MAKE NATIONAL TV DEBUT PERFORMING “THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER” AT NASCAR CUP SERIES PLAYOFF RACE ON SEPTEMBER 5

Rising country vocalist Tiffany Woys is set to make her national television debut performing “The Star-Spangled Banner” at the NASCAR Cup Series playoff race on September 5. The Cookout Southern 500 race and the National Anthem will air live from Darlington Raceway in South Carolina starting at 6 p.m. ET on NBC Sports Network, Motor Racing Network and streaming via NBCSports.com. The moment is full circle for Woys, who performed the anthem at numerous events on the West Coast before making the move to Nashville to continue her musical career.

“I was four when I first heard LeAnn Rimes sing the national anthem,” shares Woys. “It was that moment that inspired me to start performing, and I would sing the anthem on repeat over and over again. Wherever I would go that would allow me to sing the national anthem, I would get on stage and do it!”

Woys is excited to continue her musical journey with the brand new song, “About Love.” Written by Jason Saenz, Sara Haze and Sam Ellis, the track will be out on September 10. Fans can pre-save now at https://smarturl.it/tw_aboutloveps. The brand new music follows a duo of releases earlier this year, including radio hits “Do Ya” and “I Don’t,” the latter a duet with Jordan Fletcher. Both songs made noise on Billboard’s Country Indicator chart.

“’About Love’ is all about trying to convey the feeling of love with things and events you can actually describe,” says Woys. “This song is about feeling a love so great and trying to find a way to make someone feel that great love.”

Named a Taste of Country Artist to Watch and a CMT “Next Up Now” artist, Tiffany Woys grew up being influenced by powerhouse vocalists such as LeAnn Rimes, Faith Hill, Celine Dion, Michael Jackson and Carrie Underwood. As a child, she’d look for any opportunity to get up and sing in front of people, and by the time she hit 20, she was recording an independent album and hitting the road. After honing her stage presence by performing relentlessly at venues and events up and down the West Coast, often for more than three hours at a time, she followed her dreams to Nashville. In the short three years that she’s called Tennessee home, Woys has already recorded songs from some of Nashville’s most prolific songwriters, like Mickey Guyton, Emily Shackelton, Shane McAnally, Trevor Rosen, Nathan Chapman, Chris Dubois and more. She followed up her 2019 debut EP, Tiffany Woys, with songs “Hostage,” "Loved By You,” “Do Ya” and “I Don’t,” all making their mark on Billboard’s National Country Radio Indicator Chart.
