Drive You Out of My Mind

I cried, I tried
I’ve been about as “mama’s broken heart” as I can be
These small talk, slow down, one road in and out
Walls are closing in on me

This town ain’t big enough for breakin’ up
I’m ‘bout to leave it in a cloud of dust
You’re everywhere and I can’t take it
Chevy wild horses offto the races

Until I hit the city limits, ‘til I hit the state line
‘Til I reach a coast or a ghost town a thousand miles out
Keep this needle hittin’ ninety ‘til your memory can’t find me anyhow
Keep the pedal down

‘Til I see some taillights that don’t make me think of you
‘Til I’m pulled over on the shoulder by some flashin’ blue lights
‘Til this heart forgets to break, I don’t care if it takes me all night
I’m gonna drive you outta my mind

I did hot mess, new dress
Leanin’ on the whiskey but it just won’t do it
And somethin’ ‘bout this driver’s side dried my eyes
Got me thinkin’ maybe I should just keep movin’

Until I hit the city limits, ‘til I hit the state line
‘Til I reach a coast or a ghost town a thousand miles out
Keep this needle hittin’ ninety ‘til your memory can’t find me anyhow
Keep the pedal down

‘Til I see some taillights that don’t make me think of you
‘Til I’m pulled over on the shoulder by some flashin’ blue lights
‘Til this heart forgets to break, I don’t care if it takes me all night
I’m gonna drive you outta my mind
I’m gonna drive you outta my mind

This town ain’t big enough for breakin’ up
I’m ‘bout to leave it in a cloud of dust
You’re everywhere and I can’t take it
Chevy wild horses off to the races

Until I hit the city limits, ‘til I hit the state line
‘Til I reach a coast or a ghost town a thousand miles out
Keep this needle hittin’ ninety ‘til your memory can’t find me anyhow
Keep the pedal down

‘Til I see some taillights that don’t make me think of you
‘Til I’m pulled over on the shoulder by some flashin’ blue lights
‘Til this heart forgets to break, I don’t care if it takes me all night
I’m gonna drive you outta my mind
I’m gonna drive you outta my mind
Drive you
I’m gonna drive you outta my mind

Jon Pardi today released the official music video for his current single, “Your Heart Or Mine.” “Your Heart Or Mine” was written by Pardi co-producer Bart Butler, as well as Justin Ebach and John Pierce and it currently has more than 50 million streams to date. Filmed in the colonial-era city of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, the cinematic video directed by Carlos Ruiz also features former Miss World Peru, Paula Montes.

“It was a fun adventure filming this video in the city of San Miguel de Allende. The town is full of color and life, and I think the video really captures that,” shared Pardi.

Praised for his “signature neo-traditional country” and “clever play on words,” Pardi is sets the “quintessential honky-tonk standard” (CMT). “Your Heart Or Mine” is the follow up to Pardi’s fifth No. 1 at country radio, “Last Night Lonely,” and is on his latest studio album, Mr. Saturday Night. The album features 14 tracks steeped in losing, a little loving and what’s in between. Mr. Saturday Night reunites producers Bart Butler, Ryan Gore and Pardi– the same team behind the boards of his critically acclaimed third studio album– Heartache Medication, which was nominated for CMA and ACM Album of the Year and was named to Rolling Stone’s and the Los Angeles Times’ best albums of the year lists.

A “hero in the making” (Variety), Pardi is noted for his “long-lasting mark on the genre” (Music Row) and his impressive ability to carve out his own path proving “the kind of country music multiple generations came to know, and love can still work on a mass scale” (Variety). Filled with fiddle, twang and steel guitar, Pardi continues to “apply new ideas to country’s old sounds” (Los Angeles Times) and “bring authenticity back into country music” (People).

Kip Moore‘s fifth studio album DAMN LOVE will be available on April 28 and is available to pre-order now HERE. Over 13 new tracks, co-produced by Moore and Jaren Johnston (The Cadillac Three), emotionally raw and thick with epiphany, Moore explores an internal tug of war and puts it simply enough: Damn Love.

DAMN LOVE – my fifth studio LP will be released on 4/28. Appreciate the love through the years. https://t.co/PAtwjakX88 pic.twitter.com/x1dxolqUuR

— Kip Moore (@KipMooreMusic) February 24, 2023

Moore is giving fans a first look into the forthcoming 13-song project by releasing the title track today, available to listen HERE. Leading the album like a cross between campfire contemplation and redemptive rock anthem. We can’t escape love and the longing it brings, Moore finally admits.

“I’ve always had a nomadic spirit, at the core of me that’s what I am, and it’s a beautiful life I lead – I don’t take that for granted,” Moore says. “But I still crave that companionship down deep in my DNA, and that’s where ‘Damn Love’ comes from. There’s a reason love and relationships have been written about so much – and why they continue to get written about. Because at the core of us, that’s what we desire the most.”

The genre-blending songsmith has a history of entrancing audiences around the world with sold-out headlining shows in Australia, South Africa, the U.K., Europe and a slot at Bonnaroo all slated for 2023. Moore holds on to passion in the persistent anthem, “Heart on Fire,” while “Another Night In Knoxville” captures the magnetic draw of the stage – a sweeping ‘70s-rock ballad that soundtracks a long-cherished memory. Meanwhile the refreshing “Kinda Bar” conjures magic from a roadside tavern, and a comforting sense of clarity arrives with gentle instant classics, “Some Things” and “One Heartbeat” (featuring Ashley McBryde).

1. Damn Love (Jason Gantt, Jaren Johnston, James McNair)

Twenty years into one of modern country music’s most credible careers, multi-Platinum singer/songwriter Dierks Bentley delivers his 10th studio album GRAVEL & GOLD today. The 14-track album about perspective and self-awareness is a testament to the many strains of country music Bentley has mastered and cultivated in his career, from the arena shaker to the barroom weeper to the bluegrass fireballer.

Gravel And Gold is finally here! The road to get here wasn’t always smooth, but no regrets! Y’all give it a listen and let me know what you think #GravelAndGold here: https://t.co/HpVmh60dAg pic.twitter.com/flQbRMX873

— Dierks Bentley (@DierksBentley) February 24, 2023

Bentley will take new music to New York City were he’ll perform “Sun Sets in Colorado” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Monday (2/27 @ 10:35P CT on NBC). The next morning Bentley will visit TODAY (2/28 at 8:00A local time on NBC) for an interview and performances of his Top 10 single “Gold,” “the swampy rocker” (Rolling Stone) “Same Ol’ Me” as well as his No. 1 hit “Free & Easy.” To close out the week, on Thursday Bentley takes CBS Mornings (3/02 @ 7:00A CT on CBS) to his Whiskey Row location on Nashville’s Lower Broadway to reflect on the journey to GRAVEL & GOLD.

Even ahead of the release of GRAVEL & GOLD, Bentley has been applauded for his devotion to making music as authentic and lasting as it can possibly be.

“A collection of 14-tracks that testifies to everything Bentley does so well in song.” – Esquire

“The 14-track project is a combination of Bentley’s versatile influences and illustrious career.”  – American Songwriter

“Bentley revives his Country roots and sonic identity with GRAVEL & GOLD.” – The Tennessean 

“Bentley self-produced the album – a first for him – and crafted a unique and compelling commercial mix of traditional country and bluegrass that feels like a natural stretch from his 2018 album.” – CMT

“Proving indeed why he is one of Country’s biggest stars.” – TODAY

“Bentley is the most self-assured and creatively confident he’s sounded in years.” – Holler

The 10th album landmark speaks to how time has flown in Bentley’s unique, 21st-century career. He landed his first publishing deal in 2001 and released his debut album in 2003, producing an instant No. 1 single. The years since have revealed a rare consistency that’s fueled longevity – eight more albums that reached the top of the Country sales charts, resulting in 21 No.1 songs, eight billion streams, three CMA Awards, 14 GRAMMY® nominations and membership into the Grand Ole Opry. Trendy sounds have ebbed and flowed around him over these two decades, but fans have relied on Bentley for something more nourishing and individual. He also has created professional endeavors outside of the music with his Flag & Anthem lifestyle collection Desert Son, along with his “Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row” franchise hosting four locations.

Global country music superstar Brad Paisley is set to debut his first album with Universal Music Group Nashville later this year, titled Son of The Mountains. Today he is releasing the first new song off the forth coming project, “Same Here,” with a special appearance by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy marking the first anniversary since the war in Ukraine began. “Same Here” was written by Brad, Lee Thomas Miller and Taylor Goldsmith, and produced by Luke Wooten.

LISTEN TO “SAME HERE” | HERE

“‘Son of the Mountains’ is a collection of songs that I’ve been writing and working on for a while now,” shared Brad. “The music encompasses a lot of big themes and perspectives from a kid that came from a small town in West Virginia after having seen a bit of the world. The record doesn’t shy away from reflection, real life and situations that are going on and what I think country music is- which is truth.”

“‘Same Here’ with President Zelenskyy is one of the pieces of this album that represents so much a part of my journey from West Virginia to now. One of the prevailing themes on this album is freedom. That’s something I truly believe in, and think is our most precious gift as Americans. The song is grounded in observing life in the United States, then to people from other countries who speak different languages and to one across the ocean that’s at war. We start to realize how similar we all are.”

On this one year anniversary of the invasion, I'm reminded of the ways we are all so similar.
Here is the first song available from my new project. This is "Same Here". Featuring Pres. Volodymyr Zelenskyy (@ZelenskyyUa)https://t.co/oWdVc8e7dv pic.twitter.com/AsivvDponb

— Brad Paisley (@BradPaisley) February 24, 2023

Added Paisley, “That’s one of the things the President says in the song, ‘There is no distance between our two countries in such values.’ They are longing for what we as Americans have already. It’s heartbreaking watching this struggle in modern time for freedom and democracy and the ability to just simply be who they want to be in peace. And this song is something that I hope resonates not only with my fans and people in America, but people anywhere that feel a similar desire to be free and safe and happy. Because I really do believe that as human beings when you take away the banners that determine what country we all live in, we all want the same things.”

Proceeds from the song will go to UNITED24 for their Rebuild Ukraine program launched by Pres. Zelenskyy as the main venue for collecting charitable donations to rebuild and restore homes damaged by the current war. This reconstruction plan is the largest rebuilding project in Ukraine since the second World War. Brad’s relationship with Pres. Zelenskyy grew from his participation in the ‘Ukraine: Answering the Call’ charity telethon in 2022 which was broadcast in prime time in the USA. Last month Brad was named an ambassador for UNITED24.

Jordan tells us they’re really excited to meet their third child, but they’re waiting to find out whether it will be a girl or boy. “We got another one coming in June,” he says. “I gotta figure out how to not have kids in the summer because I’m usually pretty busy. I don’t know what I was thinking then but, you know I’m so excited. There truly is no greater joy in the world than welcoming a baby, and we don’t know what it is. We’re gonna wait and find out, but (we’re) really excited come June to be bringing home a baby brother or a baby sister to Lock and Eloise. So far Kristen’s been great. Everything looks healthy, you know, we’re just continuing to pray for a safe delivery and looking forward to meeting the little fella or little girl here soon. I’m pumped.”

Jordan just released his brand new album, Bluebird Days, this past Friday (February 17th).

Dierks Bentley readies his 10th studio album GRAVEL & GOLD for release Friday (February 24th). The collection, which features his latest single “Gold,” is a diverse, 14-track album about perspective and self-awareness at many levels from the personal to the professional. It’s also a testament to the many strains of country music Bentley has mastered and cultivated in his career, from the arena shaker to the barroom weeper to the bluegrass fireballer.

The Arizona native, who spent part of the pandemic in Colorado, recorded this new album not once, not twice, but three times. “You know, the first time I went to go in to record this album was during the pandemic, and it wasn’t a lot of fun being in the studio where you had to get Covid testing and you had to wear a mask,” recalls Dierks. “Very non-conducive to making art, to making music, so it really kind of messed up the session a little bit. And I cut 14 songs and decided it just was missing a little bit of the spark that comes from the fun of being in the studio and collaborating with your friends without all of those restrictions. So, the first take didn’t go so well because of that, but it just got more fun the more I worked on it, and by the time I went back in to the studio for the third time, man, it was nothing but just great vibes, great energy and I think you can hear that throughout the whole album.”

1. “Same Ol’ Me” (Luke Dick, Jon Randall, Dierks Bentley)
