Already spinning at KAJA, WIOV, KBEQ, KIXZ, KUBL, WTGE, WIWF, WPOR, WHWK, WJVC, KRRV, WXXK and WPUR!
Thanks to the support and enthusiasm of radio, Jaron and the Long Road To Love is releasing new single “Beautiful Lies,” featuring guest vocals by Big Kenny.
The song was originally released as part of Jaron’s “Wednesdays No Longer Suck” YouTube series, where he records and releases a new song with accompanying video every Wednesday. So far Jaron has recorded eight originals and four covers including Hall & Oates’ “You Make My Dreams.” Since its release, “Beautiful Lies” has found numerous fans in country radio who couldn’t wait to play it.
Jaron first emerged onto the music scene in the late 90s as one half of sibling duo Evan and Jaron, who enjoyed a run of successful singles including the multi-platinum hit, “Crazy For This Girl.” After a short hiatus, Jaron returned to music in 2009 and found success right off the bat. His first single, the humorously cathartic “Pray For You,” was a slow-building smash in 2010 and has gone on to sell over 1 million digital downloads. His 2010 album Getting Dressed In The Dark was released shortly after and has sold over 120k copies to date.

“Twenty Years Late”
Aria Records / Turnpike Music
David St. Romain’s latest single to hit country radio is the soulful ballad “Twenty Years Late,” which officially goes for adds April 4. The song comes from his just-released album All I Really Wanted To Say, which features songs by Brett James, Chris Tompkins and Jeffrey Steele as well as St. Romain’s own contributions.
“This song is a genuine look at many mother/son or mother/daughter relationships,” says St. Romain. “We, the sons and daughters, often forget how much our mothers have done for us throughout our childhood and as we grow older and have our own children, we realize how much we miss about those childhood memories.”
St. Romain first gained national attention when he made the finals of Nashville Star in 2007. Hailing from Alexandria, Lousiana, St. Romain blends a high energy live show with country, soul, rock, and a dash of Cajun influence.
“I would like people who listen to this album to look at the songs as a slide show of my life,” he says. “Every song holds true with my life experiences. It’s the first consideration when I choose the songs to record and it’s certainly factors heavily in the songs I write. A song has to make me feel something the first time I hear it.”

“It’s Still Country To Me”
Homage Records
“It’s Still Country To Me” is the new country radio release by Homage Records artist Sabastian Roberts. Veteran songwriter/producer Mark Oliverius teamed with Roberts to produce his debut full length album Unwanted Man, which includes highlights like the Lorrie Morgan duet “Dress For The Rain.”
“Working with Mark was simply incredible,” says Roberts. “His sheer musicality, his instincts for orchestration, it all helped make this album what it is.”
Roberts hails from Minnesota, where he grew up listening to a wide range of music and started performing live by the time he was 15. He played everything from blues to Top 40 to heavy metal, but his heart was set on country and in 2008 he set out for Nashville. His first studio EP, It Is What It Is, was produced by 80s hitmaker Tommy Tutone (“867-5309 Jenny”).
With the release of Unwanted Man, Roberts is poised to take the next big steps in his career. “Unwanted Man is a homage to the incredible talent in Nashville today, to the creative writers and talented musicians and to my wonderful producer who was so inspiring,” he says. “I’m ready to show my vocal ability and variety with the world and see what doors open next.”
