    Keith Urban will take to the streets of New York’s Rockefeller Center tomorrow, in between stops on his “THE SPEED OF NOW WORLD TOUR,” where he’ll perform some of his biggest hits and debut his new single “Brown Eyes Baby.”  The July 8th release comes more than a year since Urban’s last single “Wild Hearts.” The entire outdoor concert will be broadcast throughout Today’s morning programming from 8:00-11:00am EST on NBC.  Check local listing for air times in your area.

    It’s been nearly four years since Urban has toured the U.S., but already, “THE SPEED OF NOW WORLD TOUR” is being heralded as one not to miss. Featured in the hit-filled, nearly two- and half-hour show, are 20+ songs – some new, some unexpected, some never performed live and a few specially reworked songs for “THE SPEED OF NOW WORLD TOUR.”

    The tour, which launched in the U.K. last month to rave reviews, features 3x GRAMMY© nominee and special guest Ingrid Andress. “THE SPEED OF NOW WORLD TOUR” rolls onward to Toronto with two shows on July 8th and 9th. For information on where to get tickets go to www.keithurban.com.

    Keith Urban (working on new music) OC: …a couple. :23
    “Lots of new music that I’ve been working on in the last really solid year and a half — most of ’21 into this year; piecing things together. Lots of recording and feeling certain songs starting to come together to make a cohesive body of work. And we’re actually going to probably slip one into the set, at least one if not a couple.”

    Independence Day, commonly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4th, 1776, declaring independence from Great Britain and tyranny.

    The Declaration of Independence, which is on public display in the Rotunda of the National Archives in Washington, D.C., was primarily authored by Thomas Jefferson, however, he worked with Benjamin Franklin and John Adams to come up with the final document. The Declaration of Independence was adopted on July 4th, 1776, but the actual signing of the document took place August 2nd, 1776.

    Now, the Fourth of July holiday is commonly associated with fireworks displays, parades, barbecues and concerts. Some of your favorite country stars take time to remember their Fourth of July traditions, memories and what the holiday really means to them.

    Mickey Guyton will host and perform during A Capitol Fourth on the Fourth of July on PBS beginning at 8pm ET. Country star Jake Owen, Grammy Award-winning gospel artist Yolanda Adams, Tony Award winner and Broadway icon Chita Rivera, Grammy Award-winning musician and actor Gloria Gaynor, Blues musician Keb’ Mo’ and many others are also among the stars performing during the special.

    AJ (fave 4th of July memory) OC: …very cool. :58
    Well, this one is hard to beat. A couple of years ago, maybe longer than that now, I had an old boat in Florida. It’s like an old antique motor yacht, and it was kind of a cool old boat. I had taken that boat, I’ve always wanted to take it up north like to New York and up in that area, up in the northeast where it’s so pretty. So, we took the boat up there and Denise and the girls, we all went up. They like going to New York City, which I don’t really care about going to the city. So, I got to stay in my boat there at the harbor tied up, which was cool anyway. So they spent time in the city a few days and then that was Fourth of July, and we went out in the Hudson River that night and they shot the fireworks off and we were anchored out in front of the Statue of Liberty and New York City was behind us, and the Statue of Liberty and the fireworks were going off sitting on that boat. That was the coolest thing and my girls still talk about that. I mean, that was the coolest thing on Fourth of July I can ever remember. I can’t top that one probably. It was emotional sitting there watching the Statue of Liberty and thinking about all that. It was very cool.”

    “My best memories would be hanging out with my mom, brother and sister on the beach on Tybee Island right off the coast of Savannah, Georgia. We’d go there every year, and we’d light our own fireworks and watch the ones that they had for us. They were the best times, some of the best times of my life.”

    Carrie Underwood (favorite Fourth of July memory) OC: …work out. :51
    “I think my favorite Fourth of July memory would be going to the fireworks stand and picking out which fireworks I wanted to do. I must’ve been like 7 or 8, and I came home and made a list of what order I wanted to do them in, because I wanted to put a show on for Mom and Dad, and of course I couldn’t wait until it was dark outside (laughs). So, I made my Mom and Dad get the lawn chairs and come out to the backyard and watch some not very dramatic fireworks at like six o’clock in the evening, but I was so proud of myself, and I was so proud of the show that I put on. So, I feel like that was a little training for what I do now – putting on shows, figuring out how it’s all going to work out.”

    Eric Church (4th of July) OC: …freedoms. 1:17
    “The Fourth of July for me, growing up we would always go to the lake, we didn’t live on the lake but we would all go to the lake. Had a buddy who had a pontoon and we would always get on the pontoon and you go out and you’d tie all the pontoons together and just have a big time. This was before, I was younger then, the adults were having more fun than we were, you know it was just to go swim in the water and shoot off fireworks. Basically, water tailgating is what it was. And then as we got older, same thing…we would just, us younger kids had our own boat and we had as much fun as the adults.”

    Jon Langston (Fourth of July) OC: …either way. :17
    “The Fourth of July is usually different every year. We’re usually playing shows, or we’re out on the lake or at the beach, or sometimes I’ve said, ‘I’m staying at home,’ shooting fireworks off the back porch or something. That’s probably not the safest thing, but we have a good time either way.”

I can remember being on the lake for a couple of Fourth of Julys. We’d take the boat out and we’d watch the downtown fireworks show from the boat, which was really cool.”

All the individual families had a lot of competition with each other and tried to outdo each other to try to see who had the biggest and baddest fireworks and all that. [laughs] My daddy, I think, was the smartest one. He just went out and bought maybe $25 worth of fireworks and let everybody else put on the big show, so he saved a lot of money.” [laughs]

It was just a case of keep playing, keep getting better at what you do, and then hopefully, somehow, some way I’ll end up over here. The guy who was managing me at the time, we just planned a trip over here – it was actually for the New Music Seminar in New York. And we came over for that, and then we did a trip down to Nashville, and I was shopping my little demo around. I think I humored everybody more than anything else [laughs] with my tragic, ill-fitting demo for the time. So, I left there, but I was just so committed to coming back as quick as I could.”

But, it was always a great memory, and I miss not getting to do that as much as we used to.”

We always do it far away and then we light it, and we always run back and watch the fireworks, but that’s probably one of my favorite memories.” MADDIE: “My birthday is July 7th, so I always get built-in fireworks for my birthday, and sometimes we actually celebrate it on the 4th, because there’s fireworks everywhere, so it’s perfect.”

We’d always go to my grandma’s house, pop fireworks and we’d end up shooting ’em at each other and having wars; no eye protection, no nothing, just shooting bottle rockets at each other’s faces. But it was so fun; some of the best days of my life.”

But over in Alabama, that’s where all the firework stands were, and we only had to drive 10, 15 minutes to get to the Alabama line, so we could go get a bundle of fireworks pretty easy. But he would always take a lot of pride in going and finding all the good stuff and coming back with a big pile. He’d have his torch out there at the end of the driveway and we’d all eat homemade ice cream and put down towels on the driveway and he’d shoot off fireworks for 30-45 minutes. Such a good time.”

    “Fourth of July in Warner Robins, Georgia is an event. It’s something else. In fact, forever they’ve thrown an Independence Day concert, and back in the day, it was huge. It was the biggest thing they did all year. They would actually have the concert in the MAC (McConnell-Talbert Stadium), which was the high school football stadium that Warner Robins and Northside and Houston County shared. I mean, one year they had Wynonna play and then they had Josh Turner one year, Darius Rucker. I mean it was like a big deal, and there’d be 15,000, 20,000 people there, and I think it’s so cool that there’s a little bit of a legacy of people coming together in that town and making something happen, you know? I’ll never forget going to those shows and thinking, I was more proud of what the city had done. I was like, ‘That’s just so cool that they could put together a show like this, an event that everybody will love.”

    “Like a lot of songs start with a very specific idea, a very specific concept, a very specific title. This was one of those that the music drove everything. We started creating that music in the room, and it just had such this infectious, raw energy about it. And from the get go, it felt like a celebration of us and the fans. It felt like a celebration of what we’re in together. And so, we were trying to capture that in a unique way. And even how the after the first chorus, the whole verse structure changes and the next one, like we wanted to do everything off kilter and nothing to follow any kind of formula. We just wanted to let everything, you know, no bars and just go for it. So, it was basically like a tip of the cap to the fans.

  • TYLER HUBBARD RELEASES ANOTHER NEW SONG, “35s.”

    Audio
    Tyler Hubbard

    Tyler Hubbard has released a new song, titled “35s.” He says the song, which he co-wrote a couple of years ago with his buddies Jordan Schmidt and Michael Tyler, has become sort of an anthem in his home to remind him to slow down and enjoy the good stuff.

    “‘35s’ is a fun song I wrote a couple of years back, and it’s honestly all about slowing down, living life to the fullest, being present and just letting the good things kind of sink in,” says the Georgia native. “For me, I’m guilty of running too fast, living a little too fast, trying to be too productive and check all the boxes, and I just needed a little reminder to slow down and let life sink in every now and then. So, that’s kind of the heart and soul behind this song. It’s also a rocker. It feels good and it kind of makes you want to do everything but slow down, but I hope you love it as much as I do.”

    Tyler’s “35’s” is from his highly anticipated solo project. The new song follows his debut radio single, “5 Foot 9,” which is currently Top 30 and climbing the country radio airplay charts.

    Audio
    Carrie Underwood

    Three-time ACM Entertainer of the Year and 8-time GRAMMY® Award winner Carrie Underwood celebrates her 10th consecutive career Top 10 debut on the Billboard Top 200 chart for all genres with her new album Denim & Rhinestones, released June 10.  All 10 of Underwood’s albums (including nine studio albums and her 2014 Greatest Hits: Decade #1) have debuted in the Top 10, beginning with her first album, Some Hearts, which was released in 2005.  Denim & Rhinestones, the top-selling country album in the U.S., is also the #1 country album in Australia, Canada and UK.
    Denim & Rhinestones is receiving rave reviews:

                    “This album is brilliantly adventurous and dynamic and sonically versatile…it’s definitely one of my
    favorite albums of the year.”
     – Zane Lowe/The Zane Lowe Show (Apple Music)

    “Carrie Underwood achieves timeless’ legendary country status with ‘Denim & Rhinestones’”
    – The Tennessean

    “And after selling 66 million albums and winning more than 100 major awards, Underwood bounces through a mix of synth-pop, soul, rootsy country and roadhouse blues for a 12-song set that pulsates with real joy.”
    – The Toronto Sun

    “She’s back to her style of country pop, with tinges of ‘80s synths and rock, on her ninth studio record that is
    tailored for a summer festival season.”
    – Associated Press
    Underwood’s busy launch week included appearances on ABC’s Good Morning America (see her performance of “Crazy Angels” HERE), GMA 3 (see her performance of “Velvet Heartbreak” HERE) and NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (see her performance of “Pink Champagne” HERE).  She also made numerous appearances on Canadian and Australian television, including interviews on Sunrise, The Today Show, and The Project, and will be featured on an upcoming 30-minute special on ET Canada, including an exclusive performance of “Denim & Rhinestones” on June 23.  In addition to interviews and takeovers across radio and streaming music platforms around the world, Underwood also performed a global Amazon Music livestream concert, Carrie Underwood: LIVE, from The Historic Bell Tower in downtown Nashville on June 9 (Watch Now on Prime Video).  In addition to Underwood’s annual fan club party and two performances at the Grand Ole Opry, fans were also treated to a fun-filled, pop-up exhibition, The Denim & Rhinestones Experience at The Historic Bell Tower from June 10-12, including interactive photo installations, wardrobe displays, and a retail boutique celebrating the music of Denim & Rhinestones.  To close out the week, Underwood took the Nissan Stadium stage once again on June 11 to headline the 49th annual CMA Fest, which will be broadcast on ABC on August 3:
    “Last year, when Carrie Underwood served as the final headlining performer for CMA Summer Jam, following sets by Blake Shelton and Bryan, she told the crowd, ‘I think everybody knew that closing this thing down was a woman’s work.’ That’s exactly what she did on Saturday night at CMA Fest, showcasing just why she’s one of the premier vocalists in any musical genre.”
    – Billboard
    Underwood co-wrote 11 of the 12 tracks on Denim & Rhinestones with many of her frequent collaborators such as David Garcia, Hillary Lindsey, Josh Miller, Ashley Gorley, Josh Kear, and Chris DeStefano, who have written many of Underwood’s biggest hits.  She also welcomes more recent co-writers on the album, including Michael Hardy and Lydia Vaughan, the latter of whom co-wrote “If I Didn’t Love You,” Underwood’s multi-week #1 smash hit duet with Jason Aldean.

    Denim & Rhinestones is Underwood’s latest collaboration with David Garcia.

    Audio / Carrie Underwood says in making her new album, Denim & Rhinestones, they really kept radio and her live show in mind.

    Carrie Underwood (kept radio & live show in mind) OC: … Denim & Rhinestones. :53
    “It’s important to have all of the things in mind when making an album of where you’re going to be playing this album, what you’re going to do with it, what your hopes are. So, we definitely tried to think of how these songs were going to sound and feel on the radio, playing them on TV shows or whatever, but also of course factoring in the live aspect of it. We definitely had kind of this overarching tone that we wanted to make sure everything was going to sound really good in an arena. So, yeah, it’s one of those things that you always kind of have in the back of your head. You don’t want to make an album of songs that you really love but kind of fall flat when you get in front of people. So, I feel like I’ve learned that over the years, for sure, and it was definitely in our minds when we were making Denim & Rhinestones.”

  • ALAN JACKSON INTRODUCES HIS OWN SIGNATURE WHISKEY.

    Press
    Alan Jackson

    Country Music Hall of Fame member Alan Jackson is proud to introduce Silverbelly Whiskey, a new premium spirit distilled exclusively for – and hand-selected by – the country superstar.

    Silverbelly takes its name from Jackson’s signature cowboy hat – though many may think it’s white, the color is technically “silverbelly.” Every ounce of Silverbelly Whiskey – created in partnership with Silver Screen Bottling Co. & DSP-KY-10 – is crafted to be worthy of celebrating a career and countless memories for all to enjoy.

    “I opened the first bottle of Silverbelly; this is what happened,” Jackson shares. (CLICK HERE) “Silverbelly – for the Good Times.”

    Available in 750ml bottles and 91 proof with 45.5% alc/vol., Silverbelly Whiskey is described as having an aroma of brown sugar, sweet apple, cherry, honey, and a taste that’s sweet smooth, and spicy; bright fall fruits with a light, silky texture on the mid-palate; soft caramelized oak tones are met with a savory wood spice on the finish. Silverbelly Whiskey is available now in stores across Tennessee (with other states soon to follow), and spirits-lovers across the country can find it online at silverbellywhiskey.com – pre-orders begin today.

    Jackson’s storied career includes 35 chart-topping songs…multiple multi-platinum albums…Grammy, CMA, ACM and Billboard awards…and membership in the Country Music Hall of Fame and Songwriters Hall of Fame. To celebrate his iconic career, Silverbelly Whiskey’s batch numbers will reflect each of Jackson’s No. 1 hit songs as the years unfold, making each bottle an instant collector’s item. The first batch of Silverbelly Whiskey is named after Jackson’s first hit song, 1990’s “Here In The Real World.”

    Jackson’s daughter – sommelier and best-selling author Mattie Jackson Selecman – notes, “Crafted in honor of classic, bourbon style whiskey, Silverbelly tips its hat to the spirit at the heart of this country. Its smooth texture and medium-light body make it perfect to sip neat at the end of a long day or to raise in a toast of celebration, mixed in your favorite Old Fashioned or Manhattan cocktail. With a subtle kiss of oak and traditional flavors of caramel, spiced apples, and toasty brown sugar, Silverbelly is as American as whiskey comes – a true taste of home.”

    Jackson embarks on his Last Call: One More for the Road Tour this weekend (Friday in Biloxi, MS and Saturday in Knoxville, TN). Silverbelly Whiskey is the presenting sponsor of Last Call: One More for the Road, which was named the “Hottest Country Tour of the Summer” by music fans at TasteofCountry.com. Tickets and information for all shows are available at alanjackson.com/last-call-tour.
