Brown’s episode features endearing stories such as how his wife, Katelyn Jae, ended up being featured on album track, “Body Talk,” the songs he wrote for his children that are featured on his brand new album, The High Road, and what he is doing to gear up for his upcoming headline tour.

Josh Turner recently played a sold-out headline show at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium, the first time he’s headlined the venue since his sold-out show in 2021. Before the show, Turner was presented with three plaques celebrating RIAA certifications by CEO and Chair of UMG Nashville, Cindy Mabe. The plaques commemorate Turner’s hits “Why Don’t We Just Dancc” being certified three-times Platinum and “Long Black Train” being certified double-Platinum. His album Haywire was also certified Platinum.

“Wow! What a great night at the Mother Church of Country Music!” says Turner. “Sold out show, Tim McGraw’s mama was in attendance, Mike Wolfe of American Pickers was there, my family and lots of friends, and to top it off, my label presented me with three plaques! Thank you to all you fans for making this possible!”

New Label Concept Prairy Launches

Prairy, a new label concept that is changing the way artists fund, create and share their work with the world, has launched. The company is focused on speed in all ways—closing and funding deals and servicing artist needs. Free of the traditional chains that weigh down legacy music companies and without a physical office, Prairy employs a San Francisco venture style organizational model that celebrates speed, iteration and flexibility, allowing it to invest freely in what matters to its artists and partners—operational agility, transparency and support. The new company has already assembled a diverse roster of artists including Dylan Espeseth, .idk., Ri Wavey, Nicole Amoroso, yurms and imprint partnerships with Trench House and others. prairy team members are strategically located throughout the U.S. and Canada, including Los Angeles, Nashville, New York and Atlanta.

“The system is broken, and we think there’s a better way,” says Scott Lewis, Prairy founder. “The music industry is accustomed to schedules set by the month—we prefer to get things done in days, not weeks.”
