Nashville, TN – Mercury Nashville recording artist Easton Corbin revealed via Country Weekly his third studio album, About to Get Real, is set for release on June 30. Corbin fans heard the exciting About to Get Real album announcement first hand via Twitter’s new live video streaming app, Periscope, marking the first time a country artist has used the app for this purpose. Corbin teamed up with the same producer from his first two successful albums, Carson Chamberlain, for About to Get Real which will include 11 tracks overall. Final track listing to be released soon.

“When deciding on an album title, ‘About to Get Real’ just says it all for me,” shares Corbin. “When country fans listen to this album, I want them to take away that even though the music mixes the modern with the classic, it’s entirely real. Like the music of my heroes, it’s the real deal.”

In addition to the album news, Corbin’s brand new video for his Top 15 and climbing single “Baby Be My Love Song” premiered today on VEVO.

Corbin collaborated with director Shaun Silva for the “Baby Be My Love Song” music video which was shot at Pinewood Social, a hip social club near downtown Nashville. Featuring Easton as the narrator, viewers witness a bartender strike up a romance with a young woman after-hours. The trendy lounge’s industrial-chic space, which includes a bowling alley, hot tub and Airstream, lends itself to the couple’s night of fun.

Sam Hunt used to watch the ACM Awards when he was growing up at home in Georgia. Now, he is able to attend the awards show live…AND he’s nominated for New Artist of the Year…AND he’s performing, as well. One of his favorite moments was when the Entertainer Award was handed out.

“I remember staying up and waiting for the Entertainer of the Year award. That was always a big moment that I would wait for as kind of the climatic moment of the show,” says Sam. “But just always enjoyed seeing all of the folks that I listened to on the radio, see them not in person, but see them perform live on TV, ‘cause I didn’t really get a chance to see a lot of those guys perform in concerts growing up. So, seeing ‘em on the ACM Awards was second best.”

Sam, who is poised to hit the top of the country charts with his single “Take Your Time,” is nominated for ACM New Artist of the Year (VoteACM.com). The 50th Annual ACM Awards, hosted by Luke Bryan and Blake Shelton, will be broadcast live from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas at 8pm ET on CBS.

Kacey Musgraves’ new single, “Biscuits,” actually came from the same writing session as her ACM-nominated Song of the Year, “Follow Your Arrow.” She wrote the song with pals Shane McAnally and Brandi Clark, and she says it’s one of the most fun she’s ever had writing a song.

“Biscuits – is one of the most fun songs that I’ve ever gotten to be a part of. It’s funny. It actually started when me and Shane [McAnally] and Brandi Clark were writing ‘Follow Your Arrow,’ and she threw it out as a line, I think. I think it was Brandi. She said, ‘How ‘bout ‘Mind Your Own Biscuits?’ And we were like, of course, slayed, because everything she says is ridiculously amazing,” says the Texas native. “We were like, ‘Okay, that has to be its own song. It has to have its own idea.’ So, we saved it and months later kind of came back to it, and really we just went for, we really went for just all-out country on this song.”

“Biscuits” is the first single from Kacey’s forthcoming album, due out later this year.

Kacey is nominated for ACM Female Vocalist of the Year and Song of the Year for “Follow Your Arrow.” The 50th Annual ACM Awards, hosted by Luke Bryan and Blake Shelton, will be broadcast live from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas at 8pm ET on CBS.
