DISClaimer Single Reviews (10/5/11)
/by Robert K OermannI can’t remember a recent listening session with so many well-done platters. Jake Owen has the audio production to beat. Mark Willis has the week’s most striking song. Gloriana is glorious. Kenny Chesney’s bringing the star power. […]

/by Robert K OermannThis week at the Convention Center, it’s round-the-clock picking and singing at the IBMA World of Bluegrass confab.

/by Robert K OermannLet’s take a break from the Music Row mainstream and listen to some platters that have, shall we say, a little more class?
DISClaimer Single Reviews (9/14/11)
/by Robert K OermannCountry music has returned. With Sunny Sweeney, Merle Haggard and newcomer Glenn Kearney leading the charge, this listening session was packed with hard-core sounds. There’s not a pop platter in the stack. […]

DISClaimer Single Reviews (8/24/11)

DISClaimer Single Reviews (8/10/11)
/by Robert K OermannWith temperatures hovering near 100 muggy degrees, day after day, we have definitely reached the Dog Days of Summer in Tune Town. In weather like this, who the heck feels like making the effort to find new music? I do. I always do, especially when folks are playing at the top of their games.
DISClaimer Single Reviews (8/3/11)
/by Robert K OermannIt’s nice to know that country hasn’t forgotten its sense of humor. Reckless Kelly’s “Good Luck & True Love” made me smile because of its cleverness. Sam Roark found me grinning from ear to ear with her merry “Check Out Girl.” Buddy Jewell had me openly chuckling from his performance of “Jesus, Elvis & Me.” And, trust me, you have GOT to listen to “No Beer Here” by Amy Ames. It is a complete hoot.
