George Strait Releases Here For A Good Time

Posted on by

George Strait Released His Latest Single: Here For A Good Time! George Strait has released his 89th single to country radio! “Here For A Good Time” was written by Strait, his son Bubba Strait, and Dean Dillon and will be on his new album due out later this fall. The single has been named his second highest debut in his career, landing at 29 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. With 80 adds, it is the most added song to country radio this week! “I think this is the longest time, during my recording career, without anything new on the radio,” said Strait. “It’s good to be back and I want to thank country radio for their continued support. Have a great summer!” “King George” has been at it for over 30 years and has the most number one singles of any artist in history including Elvis! He never lets his fans down, staying true to his “Pure Country” sound. A Texas man, he makes everyone fall in love with his gentleman tendencies and likeable personality. He has no flash, his shows consist of him, a guitar, some wranglers, and his band, standing there keeping rhythm and singing to his devout fans. As always, we are happy to see him continue with his career and wish him a great summer as well!

Alan Jackson Releases New Single: Long Way To Go! Alan Jackson has released his new single, “Long Way To Go”, to country radio! It is a fun song just in time for summer, just exactly what we like to hear from AJ. “Seems like every time you turn around lately, there’s just something heavy going on in the world, so I felt like singing something that was kind of light and fun,” Jackson said. “I hope some people like it.” He expects to release the album later this fall. Until then we have his classics (and some of my favorites) “Chattahoochee”, “Gone Country”, “Country Boy”, “Www.memory”, “Midnight In Montgomery”, “Pop A Top”, and “She’s Got The Rhythm” to keep us occupied!

Throughout the record we get a touch of rock, blues, and R&B. “It’s country all day long, but it also rocks, there’s blues – I can’t deny it. I keep the Vaughan guitar in there, but with fiddle, banjo, and steel guitar in there as well. So it’s this whole different vibe.” Vaughan is the latest artist with Kick It Up Music and Records and “Downtime” has been released as his first single!

Trace Adkins Just Fishin’ Video

Trace Adkins Releases Video for Latest Single Just Fishin’. Trace Adkins latest single “Just Fishin’” is a far cry from his more wild songs like “Honky Tonk Badonkadonk“! As much as we love those (and we do), it’s nice to have the change of pace, and see Trace showcase his softer side. Similar to “You’re Gonna Miss This“, this latest single takes on a paternal and loving tone, and highlights just how fast things can pass us by. So far, “Just Fishin’” which was released late March, has received favorable attention. The video debuted Friday, June 3rd, and it is nothing short of adorable (if you can use the term adorable about a big man like Trace). It features scenes of a “father” and “daughter” spending the day together at the lake, and appropriately mirrors the themes expressed in the lyrics. “Just Fishin’” is featured on Adkins upcoming album, Proud To Be Here, which is due out on August 2. You can check out the video here! Just Fishin’ – Trace Adkins – Trace Adkins Videos
