Nashville, TN (July 25, 2016) – History-making duo FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE is once again on top as “H.O.L.Y.” takes the #1 spot on both Billboard Country Airplay and Mediabase charts this week. The lead single from DIG YOUR ROOTS – arriving August 26 on Big Machine Label Group – has also dominated the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for 11 weeks. “H.O.L.Y.” marks FGL’s eleventh #1 single collectively as artists and songwriters.

“From the college guys we were when ‘Cruise’ came out to starting our families, it’s been really cool to see our fans and radio embrace the music BK and I make,” said Tyler Hubbard. “’H.O.L.Y.’ is personally so special to us … thank you to everyone who took it to the top!”

FGL continues to unveil new phases musically across the 15 genre-defying tracks on their third studio album, giving listeners a richer look into their lives and influences. The pair penned over half of the songs and recorded with veteran producer Joey Moi, who stands firm at the helm of FGL’s sound. The award-winning duo collaborated with Superstar artists Tim McGraw, Backstreet Boys and Ziggy Marley on the forthcoming project. Fans who pre-order DIG YOUR ROOTS via
http://smarturl.it/DigYourRoots will receive an immediate download of "Smooth" and “May We All” (featuring Tim McGraw).

“Tyler and I have been beyond blessed to have so much support throughout our career and are continually grateful when these moments happen,” adds Brian Kelley. “Here’s to digging a little deeper and soaring even higher with our fans every night out on the road!”

Notching over 1.5 million tickets sold in 2015 alone, FGL continues the successful streak with heavily sold-out crowds during their headline DIG YOUR ROOTS TOUR, further “cementing FGL as a bona fide headliner after just two albums” (Oakland Press). Throughout the end of 2016, The Cadillac Three, Cole Swindell and Kane Brown will join the high-octane pair.
 
Since breaking out in 2012 with the mega smash “Cruise,” FGL have solidified their place as one of the elite acts in country music, earning prestigious honors from the AMA, ACM Awards, CMA Awards, Billboard Music Awards and CMT. Their previous releases – 2X PLATINUM debut HERE’S TO THE GOOD TIMES and PLATINUM ANYTHING GOES – have attributed to sales nearing 26 million tracks, over 3.5 million albums worldwide and RIAA DIAMOND-certification for “Cruise,” establishing the hit as the only Country single to ever reach sales of over 10 million copies. Their massive debut also overtook the record for longest #1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart.

Legacy Recordings Set to Release New Willie Nelson Studio Album, For The Good Times: A Tribute To Ray Price, on Friday, September 16 American Music Legend Honors His Friend and Fellow Country Icon With Fresh Interpretation of 12 Classic Songs Ray Price Made Famous 

Legacy Recordings, the catalog division of Sony Music Entertainment, will release Willie Nelson's latest album, For The Good Times: A Tribute To Ray Price, on Friday, September 16.

 

On his new album, Willie has teamed up with a pair of longtime friends--producer Fred Foster and conductor/arranger Bergen White--who, like Nelson, are American country music veterans with deep connections to the legendary Ray Price.  Foster and White worked together to complete Ray Price's final album, Beauty Is..., at Nashville's Ocean Way Studios, where Willie Nelson has returned to create the magic of For The Good Times: A Tribute To Ray Price.
For The Good Times: A Tribute To Ray Price celebrates the wide-reaching impact and influence of Ray Price on American pop and country music, from Price's hallmark lush orchestral arrangements (presaging "countrypolitan") to the patented "Ray Price Shuffle," the groundbreaking 4/4 walking bass line which transformed honky-tonk and country-western swing music in 1950s on hits like "Crazy Arms."
Providing musical backup for Willie on six of the album's tracks--"Invitation To The Blues," "Heartaches By The Numbers," "Crazy Arms," "City Lights," "I'll Be There" and "Don't You Ever Get Tired Of Hurting Me"--Willie is joined by The Time Jumpers, the Grammy-nominated Western Swing dream team comprised of Vince Gill (electric and acoustic guitar, harmony vocals), Andy Reiss (electric guitar), Larry Franklin (fiddle), Joe Spivey (fiddle), Kenny Sears (fiddle), Brad Albin (bass), Billy Thomas (drums), Jeff Taylor (piano and accordion), Paul Franklin (pedal steel) and Willie's Family Band harmonica player Mickey Raphael.
For the orchestral tracks on For The Good Times: A Tribute To Ray Price, the Nashville String Machine, a full ensemble featuring violins, violas, cellos, string basses, sax, flute and oboe, accompanies Willie.
A seminal figure in post-WWII American country music, singer/songwriter/guitarist Ray Price began his career singing on the local Abilene, Texas radio program "Hillbilly Circus" in 1948 before joining the "Big D Jamboree" in Dallas a year later.  When CBS picked up the show, Price began garnering his first national exposure.  Moving to Nashville in the early 1950s, Price became friends with country music avatar Hank Williams, going on to manage the Drifting Cowboys after Hank's death in 1953.  That same year, Ray Price formed his own band, the Cherokee Cowboys, a country music ensemble that would employ Willie Nelson as bassist in 1961. 
Friends from their first meeting until Ray Price's passing in 2013, Willie and Ray shared a profound musical bond, exemplified in Price's hit recordings of Willie-penned songs like the career-defining "Night Life" and "It Always Will Be."
A visionary and iconoclastic artist, Ray Price defined and shifted the course of American country music over the course of his career.  In the 1950s and 1960s, he kept grassroots country sounds alive through the infusion of rock 'n' roll and pop music elements, going so far as to utilize drums at a time when the Grand Ole Opry had banned them from its stage.  By the late 1960s and early 1970s, Price became one of the godfathers of "countrypolitan," combining lush orchestral arrangements with smooth-as-silk crooning.  Ray Price's music connected honky-tonk to big band to rock 'n' roll to country swing to pop.  America's musical landscape would look and sound very different without the contributions of Ray Price.
The profound musical relationship between Willie Nelson and Ray Price goes back to 1960, when Nelson, an aspiring singer-songwriter, moved to Nashville to further his career.  Willie's composition, "Night Life," became Ray Price's theme music, the song he'd use to open his shows.  As Willie's star rose in the country music firmament, he continued to collaborate with Price, releasing the albums San Antonio Rose (1980), Run That by Me One More Time (2003) and Last of the Breed (2007), a trio album with Merle Haggard. Ray Price made an appearance, singing "Cold War with You," on Willie's 2012 Legacy album Heroes.
For the Good Times: A Tribute to Ray Price debuts Willie's new interpretations of 12 songs Price made famous, including "Heartaches by the Number," "Crazy Arms," "Night Life," "Faded Love" and "For the Good Times."

CMT PREMIERES REVIVER RECORDS ARTIST
MICHAEL TYLER'S "CRAZY LAST NIGHT"


Michael Tyler: Crazy Last Night

"Crazy Last Night" Available NOW on iTunes

 
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (July 26, 2016) – Reviver Records recording artist Michael Tyler is attracting legions of fans with his smooth vocals and now he’s providing a glimpse of his Missouri roots in a CMT premiere of his debut single “CRAZY LAST NIGHT,” available now through digital retailers. Watch the CMT exclusive premiere of “Crazy Last Night” here.

"CRAZY LAST NIGHT" was recently selected as one of Billboard’s Country Songs of the Summer Picks and is currently playing on country radio. Tyler, already a No. 1 songwriter, co-penned Dierks Bentley's two-week No. 1 smash "Somewhere on a Beach."

Tyler also penned Jason Aldean’s “Laid Back” on the Platinum selling album Old Boots New Dirt, three songs on the LOCASH album The Fighters (“Shipwrecked,” “Ain’t Startin Tonight,” and “Moonwalkin”) and a Jason Aldean/Kelsea Ballerini duet “First Time Again” on Aldean’s upcoming album They Don’t Know.

Hailing from Thayer, Missouri, known as a railroad town, it’s ironic that he is the descendant of the late, great Jimmie Rodgers, known as "The Father of Country Music" who learned his craft around the New Orleans and Northeastern Railroad. At the age of 13, over a Myspace meeting, Tyler met award-winning producer Michael Knox (Jason Aldean/Thomas Rhett/Kelly Clarkson/Trace Adkins). After a few years of sending songs and ideas back and forth, Michael Tyler came to Nashville, TN to play a show at Tootsies Orchid Lounge for their first face-to-face meeting. At that time, Knox was hired by peermusic Nashville to help restructure the creative department. After watching Tyler play a few shows, Knox felt it was time for him to make the move to Nashville as a peermusic songwriter. The future has just started for this young singer/songwriter who is on the road touring all over the country with his energetic live show.

CONCERT ANNOUNCEMENT 
 
Jamestown Revival
with Jonny Fritz
Tuesday, October 18th
Doors 7pm  Show 8pm
$18 Flat  All Ages
Tickets On-Sale Fri. 7/29 @ 10am


Having grown up together in Magnolia, TX., Jonathan Clay and Zach Chance of Jamestown Revival have always shared a mutual love for music - from Creedence Clearwater Revival to The Everly Brothers to Guy Clark.  Now residing in Austin, TX., and inspired by their musical heroes, they crafted a sound deeply rooted in harmony that merges sounds of the South with classic American and Western rock.  Recorded in a cabin in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah, Jamestown Revival’s critically acclaimed debut album, UTAH, tells stories of their shared adventures and observations.


www.instagram.com/old_rock_house_stl

 
 
“100% REAL...ROCK AS PURE AS THE DRIVEN SNOW...GENIUSNESS...RAW ENERGY...
CLASSIC ROCK RIGHT IN THE MODERN DAY...
ROCK IS NOT ONLY ALIVE, BUT IT’S AS NASTY AND IN-YOUR-FACE AS EVER”
 
THE CRITICS HAVE SPOKEN,
THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT IS THE REAL DEAL AND
THEY’RE BRINGING THE “FIREPOWER” TO THE U.S. FOR
A NEW ROUND OF HEADLINING TOUR DATES
 

 
“If Rock ‘n’ Roll is to be saved, or even needs saving, bands like this will lead the way...The band comes across as if they were spoon fed classic guitar rock since the day they were born, and the beauty is that they are 100% real – nothing slick, nothing corporate about them...organic...Yup, this is rock as pure as the driven snow and sure, they wear their roots on their sleeves, but they wear them damned well. They have a genuineness that harkens back to The Stones, Free, then later The Black Crowes, and now into the glorious teens. Phil Campbell is THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT’s frontman and he has the full package—great voice, looks like he belongs in front of a mic, and he writes straight from the heart. His passion and enthusiasm comes across like a young Joe Cocker, half in control, and halfway to the moon...As long as there are bands like THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT, rock ‘n’ roll will never die.”
 
-- GuitarConnoisseur.com
 
Pretty much sums up everything you need to know about THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT.
 
While the U.K. band’s summer U.S. trek recently concluded and garnered rave reviews at every stop, they’re not going to stay away for very long.  Touring in support of their critically acclaimed second album, WHITE BEAR, THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT (vocalist Phil Campbell, bassist Nick Fyffe, guitarists Paul Sayer and Matt White, drummer Damon Wilson) will continue to bring the raucous new rock 'n roll animal to the U.S. starting September 17 in Portland, ME at the Portland House of Music and Events and concluding October 18 in Destin, FL at Club L.A.
 
WHITE BEAR--released July 15 on Fantasy Records--is the highly anticipated follow up to their critically acclaimed self-titled debut album, which spawned the anthemic hit single, “Take It Back.” Fueled by their inclusion in  iHeartRadio’s ‘On The Verge’ developing artist program, the song quickly reached the Top 10 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Tracks chart last spring.  Additionally, the band was tapped by The Rolling Stones to be the opening act at their show in Orlando, FL on June 12, 2015 at the Orlando Citrus Bowl.  They had previously opened for The Rolling Stones in 2014 in Berlin, Vienna, Zurich and Dusseldorf.
 
After garnering stellar reviews overseas, WHITE BEAR has added praise by the U.S. media to the mix:
 
“...a lot of firepower and gusto – heavy, yet melodic and driving.”
 
-- Popdose.com
 
“Their new release features a dozen tracks of raw energy poured into each song.”
 
-- Record-Journal (CT)
 
Getting classic rock right in the modern day is a tricky task: it requires injecting a sense of '70s spirit while bringing something fresh to the table, but nobody treads the line quite so successfully as achingly authentic U.K. blues-rockers THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT.
 
-- MusicRadar.com 
 
WHITE BEAR is the answer to all those naysayers who proclaim ‘Rock is dead.” THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT is proof that rock is not only alive, but it’s as nasty and in-your-face as ever. The only criticism that I can offer is that WHITE BEAR should come with a label that says, ‘For Best Results, Play At Full Volume!’”
 
-- BluesRockReview.com
 
“With a heavier sound and deeper lyrics, THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT have matured quite nicely; at the same time, not losing any of the spirit and energy they are known for. They’re just better and WHITE BEAR is the proof in the pudding.”
 
-- Glidemagazine.com
 
“...THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT has yet again become the rock n’ roll messiah for those weary souls yearning for genuine rock...WHITE BEAR has breathed life back into what was a dwindling music scene.... For those of you unfamiliar with the group, THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT will have you remembering all the feelings you had the first time you heard rock n’ roll.”
 
-- ScreamerMagazine.com
 
And on the live front, THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT never disappoints. NationalRockReview.com recently praised: “If you haven’t yet seen THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT live, you should, if for no other reason than to witness the fire-cracker performance of frontman, Phil Campbell. Even on their slower songs, he can still be seen jumping and dancing around the stage, waving his arms in the air... While The Temperance Movement are known for having an energy-ball of a frontman, it would be unfair to reduce them to a one-man band. Paul pulls out some of the funkiest guitar riffs that you will hear. Add to that the perfectly timed rhythm section of Nick Fyffe on bass and Damon Wilson on drums, and you get the hard-hitting, punchy songs that have got this five-piece noticed. Their chemistry on stage is infectious; the guys are clearly having a great time.”

MUSIC ICON STEVEN TYLER EARNS REMARKABLE DEBUT WITH #1 COUNTRY ALBUM
 

WE’RE ALL SOMEBODY FROM SOMEWHERE Available Now

NASHVILLE, TN (July 26, 2016) – Iconic songwriter and prolific singer Steven Tyler’s highly anticipated first solo album WE’RE ALL SOMEBODY FROM SOMEWHERE on Dot Records, underneath the Big Machine Label Group umbrella, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and earned the #1 spot on the iTunes Top Country Albums charts in both the US and Canada. Released Friday (7/15), the album quickly resonated among fans and critics alike proving “Tyler didn’t just parachute into Nashville for a visit, but walked around and breathed the air” (The Boston Globe). The album is available worldwide now: http://smarturl.it/STWereAllSomebody.

Penning 12 out of the 15 tracks, Tyler also co-produced the album alongside legendary musicians/producers T Bone Burnett and Dann Huff in addition to Marti Frederikson and Jaren Johnston (The Cadillac Three). Highlights include “It Ain’t Easy” that “just about touches on brilliance” (Sounds Like Nashville) and the unifying title track which showcases "the perfect merge of Steven Tyler and country music" (Radio.com).

WE’RE ALL SOMEBODY FROM SOMEWHERE has already collected stellar reviews:
'"We're All Somebody from Somewhere" - Tyler's first solo album - plays to his strengths: inventive melodies, angelic harmonies, a juxtaposition of swagger and sensitivity, and room for that acrobatic voice to soar and strut.” – Associated Press

“…’We're All Somebody From Somewhere’ marries his raspy, unmistakable vocals with relatable lyrics and countrified sonics." – Rolling Stone Country

 “…one of the top albums by a male vocalist this year so far from Nashville.” – Sounds Like Nashville

"Tyler, who co-wrote all of the album’s strongest material, proves a solid storyteller with a gift for melody..." – The Boston Globe

"…'We're All Somebody from Somewhere' isn't only sporadically enjoyable, but also worthy of serious appraisal." – Slant Magazine

KIEFER SUTHERLAND RELEASES DEBUT ALBUM 'DOWN IN A HOLE' AUGUST 19, PREMIERES "CAN'T STAY AWAY" ON CMT

Kiefer Sutherland: Down In A Hole

DOWN IN A HOLE Available for Pre-order August 5
  NASHVILLE, Tenn. ( – Kiefer Sutherland’s soulful baritone vocals and guitar licks continue to captivate audiences with his second music video, “Can’t Stay Away,” premiering exclusively this weekend during CMT’s Hot 20 Countdown. The track is the latest release from Sutherland’s debut album Down In A Hole, which will be released August 19 by Warner Music Nashville/Ironworks Music. Down In A Hole will be available for pre-order August 5. Click here to download “Can’t Stay Away.”

Sutherland, who co-wrote every song on the upcoming 11-track album with producer Jude Cole, including “Can’t Stay Away,” just wrapped up a North American tour that included sold-out dates across the U.S. and Canada.

“We wanted the biggest look for the premiere of Kiefer Sutherland’s new song and video “Can’t Stay Away!”

“We wanted the biggest look for the premiere of Kiefer Sutherland’s new song and video!” said Leslie Fram, CMT Senior VP of Music Strategy.

“CMT’s Hot 20 Countdown has a weekly large, loyal base of country music fans who want to see what’s hot and new. “Can’t Stay Away” captures the live, intimate, real and raw essence of what Kiefer has been doing on the road, playing small towns and small clubs. Undeniable!’ Fram added.

CMT’s Hot 20 Countdown airs Saturdays and Sundays at 9a/8c.

Earlier this year Sutherland gave fans a taste of his songwriting notebook when he released the pedal-steeled “Not Enough Whiskey.”

“This record is the closest thing I’ve ever had to a journal or diary. All of these songs are pulled from my own personal experiences. There is something very satisfying about being able to look back on my own life, good times and bad, and express those sentiments in music. As much as I have enjoyed the writing and recording process, I am experiencing great joy now being able to play these songs to a live audience, which was something I hadn’t counted on,” Sutherland said of Down In A Hole.

Sutherland, an Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning actor, is known for his starring role on the Fox series "24," starring roles in movies like ‘Stand By Me,’ ‘The Lost Boys,’ ‘Young Guns,’ Flatliners,’ and many more. Sutherland’s upcoming ABC series “Designated Survivor” premieres this fall on ABC.
