<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“When a trip to BeachLife Ranch was pitched for <em>More Than the Music</em>, I was immediately sold!” Newman shared. “Country and Americana music on a beach – yes please! Boasting an incredible artist line-up, yummy food, beachy vibes and even line-dancing right by the water – what more could you want in a music festival? A huge thanks to the folks at BeachLife Ranch for hosting us and all the amazing artists who took the time to chat with me. I can’t wait to bring our viewers along for the journey!”</p>
