Country artist and TikTok creator, Jaden Hamilton, has signed with Sony Music Nashville.

The singer-songwriter is debuting his Ain’t That Something EP today (Oct. 16). The four-song collection, produced by Matthew McVaney, features new tracks “Thinkin’ Bout You” and the title track, along with previously released “Found Myself in a Country Song” and fan-favorite “Long Night Letting Go.”

A native of Prairieville, LA, Hamilton was raised on a mix of classic country and hard rock, surrounded by the sugarcane fields and tread-marked dirt roads referenced in his lyrics. They were the backdrops to his earliest TikTok clips, where he first established a highly-engaged digital audience, with over 365,000 followers on the platform to date. After two weeks at Louisiana State University, and faced with an invitation from a pop producer to move to L.A., Hamilton went with option three and relocated to Nashville.

“I’m so excited to get the news out that I’ve signed with Sony Nashville. I’m grateful to be a part of such a supportive team that works with many artists that I look up to,” says Hamilton. “It’s a dream come true to be able to share this news and release my EP today. I’m super proud of these songs and I think they capture who I am as an artist.”

Hamilton is managed by The Erv Woolsey Company in partnership with Regulator Management.

DISClaimer Singles Reviews: Kane Brown, Josh Turner, High Valley, Gone West

/by

There is very little in this edition of DisClaimer that is earth shattering—This week’s hallmarks are craftsmanship and competence.

Rising above the routine are Josh Turner, High Valley, the exquisite Gone West and our Disc of the Day winner, Kane Brown.

The DisCovery Award goes to the new duo Southerland, comprised of Matt Chase and Chris Rogers.

SOUTHERLAND/”Thing Is”
Writers: Matt Chase/Chris Rogers/Greg Bates; Publisher: none listed; Producer: Trent Willmon; River House/Sony
– Rollicking, good-natured and relentlessly upbeat. A single with a smile.

HIGH VALLEY/”Grew Up on That”
Writers: Brad Rempel, Ben Stennis, Jaron Boyer; Publisher: WMG/Sony-ATV/Peermusic/Kobalt, no performance rights listed; Producer: Seth Mosley; Warner
– Well written and highly engaging. The word portrait of simple values is dazzlingly detailed, and the melodic bed surrounding it twinkles like a holiday sparkler. I’m in.

JOSH TURNER/”I Can Tell By the Way You Dance”
Writers: Sandy Pinkard/Robert Strandlund; Publisher: none listed; Producer: Kenny Greenberg; MCA Nashville
– This is smokin’ hot. Turner’s arrangement ups the tempo and intensity of this 1984 Vern Gosdin classic, giving it a zesty, refreshing spin. It’s a risky business covering one of country music’s greatest vocal stylists, but Turner shows that he’s up to the task with his artfully phrased delivery. And anyone who shines a light on Gosdin’s greatness gets an A+ in my book.

ALECIA NUGENT/”Way Too Young for Wings”
Writers: Alecia Nugent/James Leblanc/Jen Stegall/Brian Maher; Publisher: none listed; Producer: Keith Stegall; Hillbilly Goddess
– Nugent is taking the unusual step of releasing two singles simultaneously. This gentle, poignant ballad about dealing with the death of a young person is for the country market. The two stepper “Tell Fort Worth I Said Hello” is aimed at Texas-music programmers. Makes sense to me, since Texas is its own planet. And since both songs are stunners.

LUKE BRYAN/”Down to One”
Writers: Dallas Davidson/Justin Ebach/Kyle Fishman; Publisher: Play It Again Entertainment, BMI/ Kyle Fishman Music, BMI/Round Hill Compositions, BMI/ Natalia’s Music Money, BMI/Memory Days, SESAC/Curb Wordspring Music, SESAC/W.C.M. Music Corp., SESAC; Producer: Jeff Stevens & Jody Steven; Capitol
– Beautifully produced. At its most basic, this is yet another uptempo, not-too-country love song. But the swirling sonic mix makes it sound like a real romance.

KINKY FRIEDMAN/”Resurrection”
Writers: Kinky Friedman; Publisher: none listed; Producer: Larry Campbell; Echo Hill
– The soulful title tune of Friedman’s current CD serves notice that he’s not the snarky comic presence that he used to be. It’s a toe tapping meditation on death and the passage of time, sung with a soft, folky rasp that exudes sincerity. Willie Nelson drops by to harmonize.

JUSTIN MOORE/”We Didn’t Have Much”
Writers: Jeremy Stover/Randy Montana/Paul DiGiovanni; Publisher: none listed; Producer: Jeremy Stover & Scott Borchetta; Valory
– The restless shuffling tempo propels this toe-tapper-with-a-heart. It gives it a certain edge and helps lift the song above mere nostalgia and a familiar poor-but-happy message. It’s a glimpse into Moore’s album to come next year.

MARGIE SINGLETON/”Never Mind”
Writers: M. Singleton/S.S. Singleton; Publisher: aintquittin, BMI; Producer: Stephen Shelby Singleton & Derrick Dexter Mathis; aintquittin music
– Singer-songwriter Margie Singleton celebrated her 85th birthday on Monday by releasing a new EP. Its title tune is a bass-heavy rumbler with an autobiographical lyric that she delivers with moxie. Active for seven decades, Singleton has sung hit duets with George Jones and Faron Young. She has written “Lie to Me” (an R&B hit for Brook Benton), “She Understands Me” (a pop hit for Johnny Tillotson) and “Laura What’s He Got That I Ain’t Got” (a country hit by her late husband Leon Ashley). And she’s still at it.

KANE BROWN/”Worship You”
Writers: Eskeerdo/Kane Brown/Matthew McGinn/Ryan Vojtesak; Publisher: Songs Of Universal, Inc., BMI/ Kane Brown Music, BMI/BMG Gold Songs, ASCAP/AIX Publishing, ASCAP/Kobalt Group Music Publishing, SESAC/McGinntellectual Property, SESAC/True Blue Works, SESAC/Krispy Pork Gang, BMI ; Producer: Dann Huff; RCA Nashville/Zone 4
– A repeated acoustic guitar figure sends a rippling wave through this super-romantic ballad that’s shot through with religious metaphors. His performance is a slow-burn dandy. This guy’s stardom seems to burn brighter with every release.

GONE WEST/”I’m Never Getting Over You”
Writers: Colbie Caillat/Danielle Leverett Reeves/Jason Bradford Reeves/Justin Young/Liz Rose; Publisher: Warner-Chappell/Sony-ATV, no performance rights listed; Producer: Jamie Kenney; Triple Tigers
– This packs a punch. The anguish and ache in the farewell tune are made all the more piquant by the facts that this is the group’s swan song and that Colbie Caillat and Justin Young are breaking up as a couple. Caillat is noted as a Grammy winning pop artist, but it is Hawaiian music star Young’s soul-searing performance here that sent chills up my spine. Intensely moving. I am going to miss this always-flawless foursome.

KASSI ASHTON/”Black Motorcycle”
Writers: Kassi Ashton/Luke Laird; Publisher: Creative Nation; Producer: Kassi Ashton & Luke Laird; MCA Nashville/Interscope
– The track is a muffled mess. The lyric consists of the same inane phrase repeated over the over. There is nothing “country” about it. Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?

Florida Georgia Line Receive Angels Among Us Award From St. Jude

/by

Florida Georgia Line

Florida Georgia Line was honored with the Randy Owen “Angels Among Us” award today (Oct. 15) during a livestream for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Themed “We Won’t Stop,” the livestream is an annual celebration of partners affiliated with the Country Cares for St. Jude Kids radio program. The theme will also extend to social media and feature a variety of artists and influencers in the music industry.

FGL’s Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley have supported St. Jude families for many years, including involving their families and pets in the This Shirt Saves Lives social media campaign since 2017. They have engaged in special moments with St. Jude patients like surprising St. Jude patient Ian on stage at the Nashville Symphony in 2018 when Kelley led a crowd of more than 1,500 fans in singing the “No More Chemo” song to him, in celebration of his last round of chemotherapy. Last year FGL added a surprise tour stop at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital during their  Can’t Say I Ain’t Country Tour. Due to their popularity, the event attracted a record crowd of patient families for an on-campus event.

“There is truly no place like St. Jude,” said Hubbard. “Whenever we visit, we are continually inspired by the kids’ strength and their amazing stories of bravery. Giving back is in our hearts and to be presented this award is an absolute honor.”

Kelley adds, “Music is healing and we love being able to help in any way we can to further the mission of St.Jude. And, for this award to be named after Randy Owen—who has always been one of our influences—that’s pretty incredible.”

“Tyler and Brian have always exemplified the true heart of the Angels Among Us Award by giving their time, love and voices to our mission, making such a powerful impact on the lives of children worldwide through their support of St. Jude,” said Richard Shadyac Jr., President and CEO for ALSAC, the fundraising and awareness organization for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. “Through a year that has been tough for everyone, they have still shown steadfast support to us. I’m honored to present them with this distinction as members of our St. Jude family.”

The recognition places FGL among the ranks of eight past recipients, including Alabama frontman Randy Owen, 2020 award-winner Lady A, Jake Owen, Brad Paisley, John Rich, former ALSAC Chief Operating Officer David McKee (posthumously), St. Jude Country Cares Advisory Board member Sharon Eaves (posthumously), and Darius Rucker.

Easton Corbin is releasing his new EP Didn’t Miss A Beat on November 13. Corbin unveiled a video for the title track/single earlier this week, which was released to radio in August. He performed it on NBC’s TODAY Show last month. Corbin signed with UTA for exclusive booking representation in all areas, it was announced in September.

It follows on the heels of his single “Turn Up” which came out earlier this summer, as well as his second collaboration with global EDM star Lost Frequencies, “One More Night,” which has already racked up over three million Spotify streams.

“I know I can’t wait to get back on the stage, so for me, this song is representative of how I’ll feel that first night back performing. Like I ‘didn’t miss a beat,’” Corbin told People. “We shot the video at my buddy’s farm, so filming it felt like I was at home. It was really comfortable for me.”

Country music was well represented on the 2020 Billboard Music Awards last night (Oct. 14), at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.

Garth Brooks was the first country artist to receive the ICON Award which recognizes “the cultural impact of an artist whose extraordinary talent as a creator, writer and entertainer has stood the test of time.” The ICON Award was presented to Brooks by a previous recipient, the iconic Cher.

“To Miss Cher—getting to hold the award that you got makes me feel…cool. And ‘cool’ is never a word I would use to describe me,” Brooks said as he accepted the award. “If I had to thank one person or one entity, it would be God Almighty for through Him all things are possible. If you talk about down here on this planet, Bob Doyle…the group from Nashville and L.A. To the love of my life, Trisha Yearwood. The three girls—Taylor, August, Allie—I will love you beyond my time here on this planet. Country radio—you gave me this! And to all those people that fill those stands: thank you! Thank you for my life!”

Luke Combs walked away with three awards, including Top Country Artist, Top Country Male Artist, and Top Country Album for What You See Is What You Get.

While accepting Top Country Artist, Combs said: “This is an incredible honor and something I would have never dreamed of when I was growing up and when I started doing this. I just want to thank the fans out there, my beautiful wife at home, my team, my band…I hope everybody is staying safe at home. Thank you so much for loving what I do.”

Maren Morris was awarded Top Country Female Artist, while George Strait won Top Country Tour. Dan + Shay took home Top Country Duo/Group and their hit with Justin Bieber “10,000 Hours,” won Top Country Song.
