2Elizabeth Nichols
Elizabeth Nichols is officially sounding the alarm with the release of her infectious new single, “Paul Revere,” available everywhere now.

3Walker Montgomery
Walker Montgomery tips his hat to the hopeless romantics with his new single, “I Don’t Think I Will,” out now.
The ballad taps into that all-too-common feeling of meeting the one who might actually be the one and grappling with how real those feelings are, knowing this time there’s just no turning back. The song, written by Doug Johnson and produced by Bart Butler, perfectly captures that moment of surrender when the heart wins out over the head once and for all.

7Drew Baldridge
Drew Baldridge releases an acoustic version of his current radio hit “Rebel.”
“I wrote this song after noticing how often the wrong things get glorified,” said Baldridge. “Doing the right thing can feel rebellious, and I hope fans – and one day my sons – see that being a rebel here is actually a good thing. The song celebrates doing the right thing even when it’s not the ‘cool’ or easy choice.”

8Aaron Lewis
Multi-platinum country artist and STAIND frontman Aaron Lewis today announced the upcoming release of his latest solo album, Give My Country Back, arriving July 17. The title track “Give My Country Back” is out now.
“That’s life’s struggle right there,” Lewis says. “You are the master of your own destiny, and everything happens because of your actions — whether you want to admit it or not. Self-ownership is a huge thing to learn how to do in this life, and it’s always an internal battle.”

9Kylie Morgan
Kylie Morgan dropped the official music video for “Love & Country Music.” Directed by Mike Young, the video stars rising country artist Kaleb Sanders as the ex, and they didn’t need to look far to cast: he’s already out on the road with Kylie, opening select Healed Cowgirl World Tour dates. The video leans into the comedy at the heart of the song — every time Kaleb and his new girlfriend show up somewhere, so does Kylie.
