With a career spanning country and bluegrass music, singer-songwriter Kevin Denney returns with a powerful new single, “Left Me Lonesome”, on Turnberry Records. Steeped in tradition and raw emotion, the track is a soul-stirring ballad that showcases Denney’s signature rich vocals and masterful storytelling, marking a standout moment in his journey back to his bluegrass roots and is the perfect follow-up to his previous single, “Chasing Old Memories Down”.

Written with classic bluegrass sensibilities, “Left Me Lonesome” tells a haunting tale of heartbreak and solitude. With imagery as deep as a Kentucky holler, Denney paints a picture of a man lost in the shadows of love gone wrong:

“Sundown pours into this room like a coalmine, it surrounds me,
Darker than the deepest tomb—can’t see how your memory found me.”

The song blends aching melodies, weeping fiddle, dobro, and mandolin, perfectly capturing the weight of loneliness. Influenced by legends like Keith Whitley, Harley Allen, and Larry Sparks, Denney delivers a performance steeped in authenticity, reflecting the bluegrass tradition of storytelling through song.

“‘Left Me Lonesome’ is an older song that my friend Jon Henderson and I wrote, but it had never been recorded until now. Writing and singing this song came so naturally to me. I’ve held it close for years, and I truly believe ‘Left Me Lonesome’ was meant for me to record.”

Hailing from Monticello, KY, Denney has built an impressive career as both a performer and a songwriter. After breaking onto the scene with the hit “That’s Just Jessie”, he went on to pen songs recorded by Craig Morgan (“Bonfire”), Tracy Byrd, Easton Corbin, Dailey & Vincent, and Larry Sparks, among others. His work has cemented his place among bluegrass and country’s finest songwriters. Now, with “Left Me Lonesome,” he brings his passion for traditional bluegrass to the forefront once again.

Five-time GRAMMY® Award nominated and multiple ACM and CMA Award winning multiplatinum songwriter, producer and author Kelsea Ballerini has announced a highly anticipated deluxe edition of her 2024 album, PATTERNS, will be released on Friday March 7, 2025 via Black River Entertainment. PATTERNS (DELUXE) features five new songs—including the hooky and sleek “Future Tripping,” which she debuted live on Feb. 26 during a show in Fort Worth, Texas.

The wistful song explores the anxiety and uncertainty that accompanies the passage of time: “I don’t want to impose / Some things we’re not supposed to know yet / But my head won’t stop,” Ballerini sings over snappy guitar licks and bright programmed drums. The 20-track edition also includes the fingerpicked ballad (and previously issued digital bonus track) “To The Men That Love Women After Heartbreak,” the punchy and atmospheric “Put It To Bed,” the soulful and sonically shifting “Cut Me Up,” and the earnestly strummed “Hindsight Is Happiness.”

The new package expands on the singer-songwriter’s acclaimed fifth LP, which Billboard called her “most moving collection of songs to date,” and Rolling Stone said, “shifts the sonic lens in ways that feel natural and welcome.” The autobiographical album, co-written entirely with female songwriters, debuted at No. 4 on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums and became her first to top the Billboard Country Albums chart.

Ballerini is having a jam-packed 2025. PATTERNS (DELUXE) continues a red-hot streak for the East Tennessee native. Her massive KELSEA BALLERINI LIVE ON TOUR 2025 has seen the country superstar pack arenas nationwide. Meanwhile, she recently joined as a Coach for Season 27 of NBC’s The Voice and has quickly become a fan favorite.

Kelsea Ballerini continues to transcend the boundaries of her phenomenal career trajectory. Her first album, 2015’s platinum-selling The First Time, made her the only female country artist to reach No. 1 with three consecutive singles from a debut. That accomplishment secured her GRAMMY nod for “Best New Artist,” and she carried that momentum over the next decade, releasing five more consecutive records on Billboard’s Top Country chart: 2017’s Unapologetically, 2020’s Kelsea, 2022’s SUBJECT TO CHANGE, 2023’s groundbreaking Rolling Up The Welcome Mat, which marked the multi-platinum star’s most impactful work to date and led to her Saturday Night Live debut and the honor of gracing the cover of TIME Magazine, and 2024’s PATTERNS. Among her numerous awards, she earned four additional GRAMMY nominations, including “Best Country/Duo Group Performance” for her collaboration with Noah Kahan “Cowboys Cry Too,” which continues to climb at Country radio.

Americana-Country rockers Jason Scott & The High Heat have announced their highly anticipated new album, American Grin, set for release on March 28 via Leo33. Fans can pre-save the album HERE. The album follows their acclaimed debut, Castle Rock, and expands their signature sound – melding high energy southern rock with desert-worn Americana, honky tonk grit, and road-trip-ready anthems.

To celebrate the announcement, the band has released “Golden,” a standout track from American Grin, available everywhere.

A soundtrack for wide-open highways and late-night dives, American Grin, captures the essence of the American experience – its contradictions, its humor, its resilience. Inspired by everything from spaghetti-western soundscapes to Tex-Mex textures and roadhouse funky-tonk, the album blurs genre lines while staying true to Jason Scott’s sharp storytelling and the band’s electric chemistry.

“We wanted to be a little bit playful during such a serious time,” Jason says of the album, which he began writing during the Covid pandemic. “To pull back, look at the landscape, and write about the absurdity of American life.”

That balance of humor and depth shines throughout the album – whether in the Friday-night misadventures of “Me & The Bottle (Hungover You)”, the thumping, baritone guitar-driving “Yardwork” (which is about much more than lawn maintenance), or the expansive, symphonic closer “Maria,” which recalls the lush experimentalism of Wilco and The Beach Boys.

Recorded with former bandmate turned producer Taylor Johnson, the album was crafted in both Oklahoma City and the Texas borderlands, where the band drew inspiration from the sounds and culture surrounding them. From ZZ Top-worthy guitars on “If We Make Til The Mornin’” to the mariachi-influenced strains of “Interstate of Mind”, American Grin expands the sonic reach of the band while staying true to the grit and groove that have made them one of the most compelling acts in Americana today.

Jason Scott & The High Heat are set to hit the road in support of American Grin, with dates including March 6 at the new Skinny Dennis in Nashville and an upcoming show at Mercury Lounge in Tulsa.

About Jason Scott & The High Heat

Jason Scott & The High Heat create a sound that’s too loud for folk and too textured for Red Dirt, carving their own path in the world of Americana and heartland roots-rock. Based in groove, grit, and authenticity, the band is led by Jason Scott, a songwriter whose Pentecostal upbringing, years spent as a preacher-in-training, and eventual crisis of faith give him a storyteller’s edge and a unique perspective on life, love, and modern struggles. Their music blends heartfelt storytelling with dynamic, sweeping soundscapes, creating a distinct sonic identity that resonates deeply with fans and critics alike.

Their debut album, Castle Rock, introduced the world to their genre-defying sound, drawing comparisons to legends like Tom Petty and Jason Isbell, while their live performances have earned them recognition as one of the most exciting bands in the Americana scene. With accolades from NPR, The Boot, BBC Radio, and more, Jason Scott & The High Heat continue to push the boundaries of Americana and roots music, blending sharp songwriting with engaging live performances.

Rising Country music powerhouse, Grace Tyler, is shouting out all the ladies who got labeled “crazy” after a break-up in her latest release, “She Wasn’t Crazy,” out now. The track, written by Tyler, Ben Foster and Averie Bielski, is a thought-provoking account of how women are often mischaracterized following the end of a relationship and how first-person narratives often do not tell the full story.

“She wasn’t crazy – even though he said she was. I realized after going through a breakup that a man who tells you all of his exes are crazy is probably the problem. I wanted to write a song for the exes of my ex and that I understand the heartbreak this man put them through.”
-Grace Tyler

Tyler is set to release her latest EP, Everything I Didn’t Say, on March 14th. The autobiographical project follows, in track sequence, the downfall of a deeply committed relationship. This collection of music is a cathartic examination of what went wrong as told through Tyler’s undeniable vocals and heartbreakingly honest storytelling.

About Grace Tyler:

Born and raised in Frisco, TX, Grace Tyler was indoctrinated at an early age by the melodies of her idols such as Dolly Parton, George Strait and Miranda Lambert. With a vocal presence and songwriting sensibility that harnesses traditional Country music roots with contemporary appeal. Cutting her teeth as a performer in her teens, Tyler performed at venues throughout the Texas Country and Red Dirt music scene. After gaining industry recognition, she moved to Nashville to attend Belmont University and hone her craft – taking mentorship from multi-Platinum recording artist and unequivocal storyteller, Lee Brice. Tyler first felt the taste of fame when publishing “My Mistake,” the viral breakup single which first captured ears and hearts on TikTok. She was awarded the cover of Texas Country Now playlist on Spotify June of 2022, playlist placement on Fresh Finds all genres and Fresh Finds Country. Tyler also performed for Spotify’s Coastal Cowgirls series in Venice Beach, CA (April 2024) and her first CMA Fest performances of her young career (June 2024) via Spotify’s Fresh Finds Stage and Hard Rock Stage at Hard Rock Cafe. Tyler has also been featured on the cover of Amazon’s “Breakthrough Country” playlist for her song, “Lose Me,” currently sitting at #3 (Dec. 2024), and was 1 of 8 multi-genre artists nominated for Spotify’s “Fresh Finds Favorites” with her song, “Weak Man,” (Nov. 2024). Recently the rising star hit the road on her first tour, opening for popular Texas act, Shane Smith and the Saints. Now, Tyler is set to heal some broken hearts with her powerful forthcoming EP, Everything I Didn’t Say, due out on March 14th. “She Wasn’t Crazy” follows her recent release, “I Hope You Have a Daughter,” which is a candid sentiment to an ex that warns you often reap what you sow.

Dubbed by NPR as “the backbone of contemporary Country music,” Miranda Lambert expands her celebrated Postcards from Texas musical chapter with an official music video for upcoming single “Run,” impacting at Country radio this coming Monday, Feb. 24. Embracing the sense of freedom and the three-time GRAMMY Award-winner’s fiercely independent spirit on display in the song’s lyrics, the video directed by Kate Rentz is out now. Watch HERE.

Pulled from the archives for her latest critically acclaimed album, the solo-penned song written around the time of The Weight of These Wings found its rightful home on Postcards from Texas, with MusicRow declaring, “The thrilling, pumping production sets your pulse racing. The lyric of regret, deception and escape grabs your ear. Her voice, as always, rules your heart. An artist at the top of her game with a mini masterpiece.” Billboard also praises “Run” as “the singer-songwriter at her best…Heartfelt and heart-wrenching, she sings of regret while accepting wildflower ways,” while American Songwriter highlights it as the album’s “most vulnerable moment.”

“I wasn’t ever ready to perform it until now,” Lambert shared of the anthem with Kelleigh Bannen on “Today’s Country Radio.” “That’s what songs are for, and you may not be ready at that one time to sing about something really raw… but then it can come back around,” adding that the song is “an admission of human error too…It’s an apology, but it’s also a resolve.”

Filmed at Don Donnelly’s D Spur Ranch & Riding Stables in Gold Canyon, Ariz., the striking desert visuals bring the vulnerable song to life with Lambert surrounded by mirrors, wildflowers and horses—including her own horse, Cool, who joined Lambert’s stable in 2024 as she embraced a new hobby of mounted shooting.

“There is always a sense of freedom when you’re on the back of a horse with the wind in your hair, so it felt really significant to have Cool with me in this video,” reflects Lambert. “I love horses because they’re a way to run to something – or away if you need to. I started riding when I turned 30 and wanted to try more things that scared me. Now horses are such a passion of mine and mounted shooting is a brand-new way to push myself and to chase that feeling of being bravely true to yourself, which is exactly what this song is about.”

“Run” follows “Wranglers” as the second single off Postcards from Texas, which arrived in September and continued her unbroken streak of 10 consecutive Top 10s on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart. Lambert is also set to join Morgan Wallen for several stadium dates of the upcoming I’m The Problem Tour, plus headlining sets at festivals and one-off dates this including Two Step Inn, Country Stampede, Lakefront Music Fest, Field & Stream Music Fest and more.
