Last weekend, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum hosted a book talk with host, writer and producer of the country music history podcast Cocaine & Rhinestones, Tyler Mahan Coe. The program was moderated by museum writer-editor Allison Moorer, and during the program, Coe discussed his new book Cocaine & Rhinestones: A History of George Jones and Tammy Wynette, which is based on the podcast’s second season.

The book features illustrations by Emmy-winning artist Wayne White, and following the book talk, Coe and White signed books at a reception in the museum’s Haley Gallery, where White’s artworks for the book were on display.

Nashville-based rock band Dogpark has signed with Severance Records, a division of Big Loud Rock, and released their debut single “Caviar” with the label. The band also recently announced they’re heading out on their “Breaking in America Tour” through December.

“When Mike [Easterlin] and I launched Severance Records less than a year ago, our mission was clear: trust our instincts and sign the bands that truly moved us,” says Steve “Stevo” Robertson, Co-President of Severance Records. “We could feel indie rock on the rise, and we knew we wanted to back bands with world-class vocals and killer songwriting. Dogpark embodies everything we believe in, and from the moment we heard their sound, we were beyond stoked. We never checked the numbers; just the goosebumps on our skin.”

Canadian country artist Zach McPhee has signed with RLive, the management division of Republic Live. McPhee, who has garnered over 12 million global streams to his name in less than a year, was recently crowned the winner of this year’s SiriusXM Top of the Country competition.

“I’ve had the privilege of following Zach’s journey from the start of his music career, and it’s been remarkable to witness his growth. The support he’s received from major streaming platforms and country radio speaks volumes about his talent,” says Anne Stirk, Director of Marketing & Brand Strategy at Republic Live. “His authenticity, both as a songwriter and performer is evident in his ability to create meaningful connections with listeners. We are beyond excited to welcome him into the RLive family and help him reach new heights as he embarks on this next chapter!”
