  • City Girl with a Little Country Charm

    “Man I gotta warn ya, she’s a city girl with a little country charm” – Jerrod Niemann (from the song, “Bakersfield”). Country music fans, listen up. You’ve gotta check this guy out – Jerrod Niemann. I heard his song “One More Drinkin’ Song” on XM Radio and really liked it.…

  • Favorite {Country} Songs of the Week: Week 3

    I have been terrible at keeping up with this mini-series (you know how life just gets away from you in the summer and then all of a sudden, it’s fall?… yeah), but here’s a little update on my current playlist! Steve Azar – You’re My Life (video | iTunes)This song…

  • Fight Like a Girl

    I’ve always loved that phrase and I think it’s perfectly appropriate for the campaign for the fight against breast cancer. I was thrilled when Bomshel came back to mainstream country radio with their newest single, “Fight Like a Girl”. Click here if you can’t see the video above!Here are some…

  • Zac Brown Band Coming to Cary
