Multi-Platinum-selling country star Sam Hunt releases his eagerly-awaited sophomore album SOUTHSIDE, Friday (April 3rd on MCA Nashville). The album will feature his latest #1 radio hit “Kinfolks,” his new single, “Hard to Forget,” the introspective ballad “Sinning With You,” and more from the award-winning artist.
“The majority of the songs on this record I wrote within the last year. There are a few songs on the record that were written prior to 12 months ago that I felt like belonged on this record, they sort of fit the storyline, so I included a few of those songs. These were the 12 songs of the songs that I’ve written since putting out Montavello that seemed to capture the last four years – more specifically the last 12-18 months – but capture the last four years more so than the others I wrote that didn’t make the record.”
SOUTHSIDE is the first full album since Hunt’s critically acclaimed, GRAMMY-nominated, Triple-Platinum-selling debut, Montevallo, which was released nearly six years ago in 2014.

Sam Hunt (music captures last four years) OC: …the record. :38
“The majority of the songs on this record I wrote within the last year. There are a few songs on the record that were written prior to 12 months ago that I felt like belonged on this record, they sort of fit the storyline, so I included a few of those songs.

Last month four-time GRAMMY Award winner and reigning ACM Entertainer of the Year Keith Urban, released his new single “God Whispered Your Name.” A week later it was his biggest streaming debut to date. As it continues to move up the charts, now comes the release of the song’s official music video, directed by Jennifer Massaux, that perfectly complements a song that as Urban states can mean a lot of things to a lot of different people.
“I wanted to first try and capture a sense of isolation, a lonely, dark place, that transitions into light a bit more as the video progresses, which for me is how I found my own world opening up as I went along my journey,” said Urban.
But as Urban tells it the video had its challenges. “That dark and lonely place, was underneath a warehouse in Nashville, literally the darkest, dank and smelly place. We spent the whole morning there shooting everything that you now see in the first part of the video.”
But the smell wasn’t the only challenge. “There was water in this room that I thought was like an inch deep,” explains Urban. “So, I opened the door, walked in and it was really about a foot. The first idea I had was to put my feet and socks into a garbage bag – tie them up and put my shoes on. I’d have my foot, my sock, a garbage bag and then my shoe – it made so much sense – but the water went everywhere. At the end of the shoot I took my boots off and they were drenched – probably as much water in the bag as there was in the waterway!”
The video’s cinematic sense of space and light is represented best as Urban is seen, from a variety of different drone shots, playing his guitar while balanced atop a boulder on an extraordinary mountainscape located just outside of the small town of Lancaster, California. “Playing guitar atop a boulder is definitely not a great idea. You just kinda lose yourself in what you’re doing, and every minute or two you realize what you’re doing, and you think, ‘I better not fall off this big ass boulder!’”
But in the end, Urban’s goal is very basic. “For me, a good music video takes the song to another level. It maybe gives the song a bit more dimension and hopefully we’ve done that with this one.”
Jordan Davis is closing in on the top of the country charts with his latest hit, “Slow Dance in a Parking Lot,” the follow-up to his previous two No. 1 hits, “Singles You Up” and “Take It From Me.”
The Louisiana native co-wrote the sentimental tune with Lonnie Fowler after talking about Lonnie’s first date with his now wife. It’s a true story. That was written with Lonnie Fowler. “We didn’t have an idea of what we were going to write that day, and we started talking about first dates,” says Jordan. “He asked me about my first date, which was not eventful at all, and then I asked him about his first date, and it was him and his wife on their way home, a Garth Brooks song comes on the radio, they pull in a parking lot and he asks her to slow dance. I was like, ‘Dude, if there’s ever a country song, that’s it right there.’”
“Slow Dance in a Parking Lot” has already been certified gold.
Jordan Davis (Slow Dance true story) OC: …right there. :32
“‘Slow Dance (in a Parking Lot)’ is just a song that from day one when we wrote that, people just needed to hear this song. It’s a true story. That was written with Lonnie Fowler. We didn’t have an idea of what we were going to write that day, and we started talking about first dates. He asked me about my first date, which was not eventful at all, and then I asked him about his first date, and it was him and his wife on their way home, a Garth Brooks song comes on the radio, they pull in a parking lot and he asks her to slow dance. I was like, ‘Dude, if there’s ever a country song, that’s it right there.’”
