  • JORDAN DAVIS INSTANTLY “FELL IN LOVE” WITH HIS LATEST SINGLE, “TAKE IT FROM ME.”

    Jordan Davis is closing in on the Top 20 with “Take It From Me,” which he co-wrote with his brother Jacob Davis and songwriter Jason Gantt, and he says the lyrics of the song represent him very well.

    “I think that ‘Take It From Me’ is a little more me lyrically as far as like the delivery of it,” says the Louisiana native. “I think you can kind of see a few more of my influences on some of those lyrics.”

    “Take It From Me” is the follow-up to his recent No. 1 smash, “Singles You Up,” which has been certified platinum for more than 1 million copies sold.

    Jordan will hit the road early next year on Old Dominion’s Make It Sweet Tour 2019, which kicks off January 18th in Chicago. In the meantime, you can catch him with Kip Moore on his After the Sunburn Tour. Their next stop is Thursday (October 25th) in Denver, Colorado at The Fillmore Auditorium.

    Jordan Davis (Take It From Me) 3 OC: …it too. :34
    “‘Take It From Me’ and ‘Singles You Up’ were, I feel like neck-and-neck, for the first single. I feel like if we would’ve gone the other way, ‘Singles You Up’ would’ve been right behind it. I think that ‘Take It From me’ is a little more me lyrically as far as like the delivery of it. I think you can kind of see a few more of my influences on some of those lyrics. When you have something like that, even as a songwriter and for us that write songs a lot, you still don’t get a ton of those that you just can’t stop listening to. If we fall in love with something that quick, I think we think that our fans would gravitate towards it too.”

    AJ (Halloween) OC: …cute, but…[laughs] :17
    “Aww, I remember some, when they were infants, they had like these little, they looked like a little pea pod, you know, or something. It’s like a little green pea or something. And I thought man, that’s awful. But Denise liked it, and I guess it was cute, but…(laughs).”

    “You know, when I was a kid, I loved the trick and the treat. I loved dressing up. I was always wanting to be Dracula. That was my favorite guy. But, of course, who doesn’t love going door-to-door and getting these buckets of candy? [laughs] So, love, love Halloween.”

     

    Audio / JOHN AND TJ OSBORNE TALK ABOUT THEIR FAVORITE HALLOWEEN CANDY.

    Brothers Osborne (Halloween candy) OC: (John) …go stale. [laughs] :34
    TJ: “I would say, Snickers, Baby Ruth, Kit Kat and Reese’s too.” JOHN: “I always hated those houses that would give you bad candy, though. You’re like, ‘C’mon. Step it up.’ Spend the extra dollar on a bag, you know?” TJ: “A house when we were growing up used to give out whole candy bars. It was the best. You were like, ‘That house – that’s the honey hole of candy.’” JOHN: “I love it, and I love like at the end, like three or four days after Halloween you would see what candy was left, and it was always like those crappy cheap candies, and they would just go stale.” [laughs]

    Brothers Osborne (carving pumpkins) OC: …or something. :25
    “With our dad every year, we would go looking for pumpkins, and we would all get our own pumpkin to carve, and he would buy the biggest pumpkin that they had. It was huge. I mean, it was way too big for any one person, but he would love carving. He’s kind of an artsy guy. He was a great drawer and stuff, and he would carve the most terrifying, vicious looking, scary pumpkin you’d ever seen in your life, and it would be massive. It would be like on a 50-pound pumpkin or something.”

    Brothers Osborne (zombie costume) OC: (John) …was so fun! :29
    TJ: “Literally, you can dress up like a zombie and drag your foot behind you all day and make weird noises, and everyone finds that completely acceptable.” [laughs] JOHN: “One year I dressed up as a ‘90s redneck zombie with a mullet wig and an Alan Jackson denim coat. I never once broke character. That’s part of the thing — you can actually not break character and get away with it. And everywhere I went, even when I ordered a drink, I ordered it like a zombie that was falling apart. [laughs] It was so fun!”

    Brothers Osborne (Halloween costume) OC: (TJ) …I love it. :37
    TJ: “There was a costume I had when I was a kid that my dad made. I was a caterpillar, no, you were a caterpillar and I was a spider. And so I don’t know if you’re familiar with pipe insulation? It’s like these black tubes, and so I had these little black pipe insulators as my legs.” JOHN: “There were strings attached to him that would hold some of the black pipe insulators under his hands, and he’d put working gloves on the end of them and so when he’d raise his arms, all of the little spider legs would raise up with it. [laughs] I’m telling you, our parents were total hippies. They were just…” TJ: “Artsy-fartsy hippies. I love it.”

    Clare Dunn (Halloween) OC: …and stuff. :23
    “Halloween was always hit and miss. I mean it’s five miles to my nearest neighbor. So, for us if we wanted to go trick-or-treating or whatever, some of the country kids a couple of years would all band together and we’d drive around in vehicles from house to house to house. So, we’d all pile into a pickup and then we’d go annoy our neighbors for candy and stuff.”

    “Oh, when I was a kid, I was all into fireworks. Growing up in Arizona, we couldn’t get ’em, so we’d have ’em shipped in illegally. I still remember the name of the guy we’d call. His name was Joe, and he’d bring in, ship ’em in a package with no writing on ’em. We were all about M-80s in the mailboxes and bottle rocket wars. To me, as a kid, Halloween was fireworks, was blowing up stuff around home. [laughs]”

    Eric Church (Halloween) OC: …Franklin Street. 1:18
    “My favorite Halloween costume really came, I remember when I got a little older my first year of college, there’s this thing they do every year in Chapel Hill, North Carolina – Halloween on Franklin Street. We drove down from Boone, North Carolina. I had a bunch of friends that went to University of North Carolina, and we didn’t have costumes and didn’t realize until we were on the way that we had to have costumes. So, we stopped at a costume place in Greensboro, North Carolina. It’s Halloween, so there’s a run on everything and couldn’t find anything. And we end up getting sent around, driving  around town. We end up finding this hole in the wall place, but they had the full costume, Sesame Street outfits. The real deal. The real ones [with] feathers and fur. We were Elmo, Cookie Monster and I was Big Bird, and the Big Bird was the actual Big Bird. It’s about 7-foot-4, and yiou looked out of the body and then you had these straps that went on since the head was a lot higher. There’s a lot of beer involved in Franklin Street, so we get down there and as the night went on, my straps broke, so the head would pivot. And so, I would be walking one way and the head would be facing the other, and it just became this funny…I didn’t know the head was on backwards. I had no idea. I see out of the body, so I’m just kinda walking around and people were talking to my ass-end. [laughs] The whole time peiople’d come up and start talking and go, ‘Hey, turn around.’ And I’d turn around, and they’d go, ‘No turn around.’ It was a mess. That year, there was no other Big Bird on Franklin Street.”

    Audio / Jon Langston talks about his most memorable Halloween.

    Jon Langston (Halloween show) OC: …memorable Halloween. :59
    “So we played a show a few years ago in Baton Rouge and I go off stage and I come back on stage for the encore. I don’t know this until midway through the song, I’m just into the crowd, like I’m engaged. I’m in the zone, and I just see everyone, like everybody else behind me but me and I’m like what’s going on. I turn around and each of them has a different huge mask on, like one of those stuffed animal masks, like my drummer has a dinosaur head on. My guitar players, one of ‘em has monkey head on, the other has a unicorn head on. And my bass player has like a, I think a dog or cat head or something like that. I couldn’t finish the song I was laughing so hard just seeing them playing with these like over-sized huge mask heads on Halloween night. That was funny. It was a good prank, so that was probably the most memorable Halloween.”

    Jordan Davis (Halloween costumes) OC: …jet black. :49
    “I can remember being really big into Power Rangers. I always liked the Red Ranger. I remember being Red Ranger one Halloween. I remember me and my brother being big into the Ninja Turtles. I was Donatello one year, which I think was the purple turtle. I think, though, my favorite Halloween was I was in college and I went as Luigi from Mario and Luigi, and I actually grew a legit mustache and dyed it jet black and ran into an e-girlfriend at the costume shop and completely forgot I had the mustache on. So, when Is saw her, she was like, ‘So, you’re going with a mustache nowadays, huh?’ [laughs] I remember being like, ‘I swear this is part of my Halloween costume.’ [laughs] When I dyed my mustache, my top lip was black for a week. Like I really did dye it jet black.”

    “My favorite Halloween candy [is] probably Reese’s or M&M’s, although I love the variety of Starburst. It’s one that I feel like I only eat at Halloween, because I feel like at Halloween one of the popular ones is the two-piece Starburst things. So, probably Reese’s, M&Ms and throw in some Starbursts.”

    Audio / Luke Bryan says his wife Caroline usually pick out his Halloween costumes.

    Luke Bryan (Halloween costumes) OC: …always has. :20
    “Me and Caroline did one year where I dressed up as the old lady, and she dressed up as, she called herself a dirty old man.

    Luke Bryan (Halloween) 2 OC: …with all that. :33

So that day, I’ll talk to the neighbors ‘cause I have a tractor back there and I’ll go get my tractor and get a big long trailer, and then I’ll run down to…a couple miles from the farm, we’ve got a big hay farmer that keeps hay and you run in there and pay him for his hay bales. And I’ll load the hay up and get the hayride ready and we’ll take all the kids behind the tractor and have a fun Halloween with all that.”

As little girls, everyone wants to dress up as princesses, and I think I was a witch like six years in a row. I just wanted to be scary.” MADDIE: “Girl, I was like Jasmine and you know [other] princesses.”

    Travis Denning (Halloween costume) OC: …Busch Light. :21
    “Honestly, I think one of my most proud and embarrassed Halloween costumes is I went as Terry from Reno 9-1-1. I had the roller skates, the short-shorts, the tied-up shirt. Looking back, it wasn’t the manliest thing I ever did, but it got a lot of laughs. And I think that year my favorite candy I ever had was Busch Light.”

  • JORDAN DAVIS TAKES TOURING TIPS FROM KIP, CHRIS AND JAKE.

    Jordan Davis is a student of his craft, watching folks he has toured with, including Kip Moore, Chris Janson and Jake Owen.

    “I try to take away something from every artist. Going out with Kip, I took away from what he does. I don’t think he played the same show every night. Anybody who’s talked to Kip Moore, he’s a pretty passionate dude, and he has that same passion for his music. So, I kinda took that fire into my shows and trying to make the best show every night,” says the Louisiana native. “Going into playing with Chris, Chris Janson and Jake Owen, I mean Chris is a blast to watch and it doesn’t matter where he’s at, how long he’s playing, what he’s playing, he’s putting on the best show he can. And Jake is just a guy that is more kind of ‘fly by the seat of his pants,’ and it’s incredible for me to see his set list side stage every night and then see the songs they actually play…So, I mean every night for me to get to stand side stage and watch those guys, I try to kinda pull something from what they’re doing to try to better my show.”

    Jordan is currently working his way across the country with Jake and Chris on the Life’s Whatcha Make It Tour 2018. Their next stop is Thursday (August 30th) in Birmingham, Alabama.

    Jordan is closing in on the Top 30 with his latest song, “Take It From Me,” the follow-up to his recent No. 1 “Singles You Up.”

And Jake is just a guy that is more kind of ‘fly by the seat of his pants,’ and it’s incredible for me to see his set list side stage every night and then see the songs they actually play. I think that is something that any artist and any performer wants to get to that point with their band that out of nowhere it can go this way; as a fan and as a spectator, you would never know that that happened with him going back to his talk back mic and go, ‘Hey! I don’t want to play that song. We’re gonna play this.’ So, I mean every night for me to get to stand side stage and watch those guys, I try to kinda pull something from what they’re doing to try to better my show.”

  • KIP MOORE ANNOUNCES NEW ‘AFTER THE SUNBURN TOUR’ WITH JORDAN DAVIS AND OTHERS.

    Kip Moore revealed he will hit the road this fall for a string of headlining dates across the country as part of his AFTER THE SUNBURN TOUR. The impressive trek will kick off in Silver Springs, MD on 9/20 and will make stops in major cities including Los Angeles, Nashville, New York City and more, as Moore’s fervent live fanbase continues to grow as “its the way he expresses what’s on his mind that draws sold-out audiences around the world” (CMT.)

I’m excited to get out to some cities we haven’t played a full show at in a while and with all the awesome acts we have joining us, it’s going to be a hell of a fall!”

    Kip Moore’s current single “Last Shot” is the second taken from his revered third studio album SLOWHEART and follows his fourth No. One hit “More Girls Like You.”

  • JORDAN DAVIS IS PROUD OF LATEST SONG, “TAKE IT FROM ME.”

    Jordan Davis’ current song, “Take It From Me,” kicks off his debut album, Home State, for a reason.

    “That was one that is at number one for a reason. I feel like when it came to kicking the record off there was not a better song than ‘Take It From Me’ that did it,” says the Louisiana native. “I feel like we wrote that song very well, and then you know as far as production-wise, I think that that’s a great introduction to what Home State is, and yeah, I’m very, very proud of that one.”

    Jordan “takes” his music to Louisville, Kentucky on Wednesday, followed by a performance at the Faster Horses Festival in Brooklyn, Michigan on Friday (July 20th).

    Audio / Jordan Davis said there is a reason why “Take It From Me” is the first song on his debut album, Home State.
