George Birge — “Beer Beer, Truck Truck”
We love a straightforward Country song, and that’s exactly what we get with George Birge’s “Beer Beer, Truck Truck.” While the track surely pulls attention with a title that pokes fun at Country music’s expense, Birge is quick to defend the integrity of the genre with his smooth Texas vocals and captivating storyline. “The whole point was to say that, ‘yeah, the country lifestyle may not be as flashy or as fast-paced as the city, but there's more to it than meets the eye — and if you give me a chance, I'll show you how good it can be,’” George shared of the song. Mission accomplished!
Hannah Dasher — “You’re Gonna Love Me”
Hannah Dasher has a personality as big as her voluminous brunette locks and her song title is no lie — you really are gonna love her! The tune is a straightforward introduction to the self-proclaimed “Bad Mama Jama,” and after one listen you’ll have nothing to question about her authentic southern roots and ability to turn any situation into a damn good time. Her love for ‘90s Country shines brightly through her own, personal style and offers a refreshing sound as she makes us smile with loads of sass and fun-loving lyrics. Hunny, hush!
Conner Smith — “Learn From It”
School may be back in session, but Conner Smith is all about preaching life’s lessons in his debut single to Country radio, “Learn From It.” While his name may be new to fans, Conner is no stranger to the Country music world as he signed a publishing deal at the ripe age of nine… WOWZA. Now, at the age of 20, Smith’s youthful spirit and adventurous personality are on full display as he launches his artist career. “I wrote my song ‘Learn From It’ basically just about every stupid thing I did growing up and got in trouble for,” he shared. “I love this song so much because I can pretty much tell you a story behind every line.” Ah, to be 20 again!
Morgan Wade — “Wilder Days”
Morgan Wade is in a category all her own and we are captivated. With edgy vocals that blend southern rock and blues, we could honestly listen to her sing the alphabet and be mesmerized. Lucky for us, on top of being a talented vocalist, she is also a gifted songwriter, who will instantly grab your attention with her song, “Wilder Days.” All about the emotional roller coaster of love slipping away, Wade will have you experiencing all the feels as she daydreams of meeting a love interest in their “Wilder Days.”
Ray Fulcher — “Girl In It”
Ray Fulcher is all about giving credit where credit is due, and for him it belongs to women. A meaningful tribute to all the ways a woman can enrich life, Fulcher isn’t shy to shine the spotlight on all the ways his world has been made more meaningful by the women in his life. From the freshest of relationships to those lost that still live on in our hearts, this song is a songwriting masterpiece that will have you feeling grateful through and through.
Laci Kaye Booth — “Shuffle”
While this song may confuse any man trying to understand a woman’s emotions, Laci Kaye Booth hits the nail on the head as she explores the mind of a woman using a simple playlist. With nod’s to several Country songs, old and new, Booth makes it plain and simple as she hops from Tammy Wynette’s, “Stand By Your Man,” to The Chicks’ “Goodbye Earl.” What’s so confusing about that, guys? ;)
Laine Hardy — “Authentic”
Laine Hardy is all about keepin’ things true to his Louisiana roots with this song, and we can’t get enough. Hailing from the small town of Livingston, LA (population 2,000), Laine proves he is “living proof of those country songs,” he grew up around and plans on keeping his Country ways alive and well. The up-tempo song is included on Laine’s debut album, Here’s To Anyone, his first full-length project since winning American Idol in 2019.
