Taylor Swift Begin Again Music Video

Posted on by

WATCH: Taylor Swift Releases Video for Begin Again Off New Album Red. Taylor Swift released her brand new and highly anticipated album, Red earlier this week (check out my complete review!), and in the onslaught of all things Taylor, she has debuted a new music video for track, “Begin Again“. This track is easily one of the more low key, and *almost* country songs off the new album, and the imagery is definitely more mature than what we saw in her pop-ish “We Never Ever Getting Back Together” video. Check it out below, and don’t forget to let us know what you think in the comments section! Watch: Taylor Swift “Begin Again” Music Video.

Montgomery Gentry Releases EP

Posted on by

Montgomery Gentry Releases New EP, Friends and Family. Montgomery Gentry has released their EP, Friends and Family. It consists of four tracks, including their current single, “I’ll Keep The Kids.” “I’ll Keep The Kids,” is a very emotional and honest song that unfortunately many will, and already have, relate to. It speaks of the struggles of a nasty divorce and how people can get greedy and not realize what is important in life. “Ain’t Out of the Woods Yet” was also released on Colt Ford’s album, Declaration of Independence. Also on the EP is “Where I Come From” (remix featuring Colt Ford) and “Good Ol’ Boys.”

Hayden Panettiere to Release A Country Music Album

Posted on by

Hayden Panettiere Hopes to Record Full Length Country Music Album. Hayden Panettiere is currently starring alongside Connie Britton on ABC’s hit new drama, Nashville, as the young, conniving and emotionally damaged pop country singer we love to hate, Juliette Barnes. So far, she’s already had to sing a couple of times for the role, and it looks like she wants to do a lot more of it! Hayden recently shared with US Weekly that she’d love to record a full country record! “I recorded an album when I was younger, and I always said that if I was going to go back to music, I would do country. I’m keeping my fingers crossed.” -Hayden Panettiere Like many young starlets, Hayden already has a background in music/recording in addition to her acting chops with credits on Disney soundtracks like Ice Princess and Disney Girlz Rock. She even released her own pop single in 2008 titled “Wake Up Call“. It’s super poppy stuff, but based on her performance on Nashville, I think Hayden could offer up a pretty decent country album. You can actually purchase tracks from Nashville via iTunes!

From that point on, I fell in love with the brand.” -Turner Turner will also be featured in Ariat’s new “Passion” advertising campaign. The ad will appear in several publications including Southwest Airlines’ magazine Spirit, Cowboys & Indians, American Cowboy and Western Horseman. “Josh is a true fan of our brand.
