BusCall Nashville To Part Ways With Tin Roof Ahead Of New Opportunity

Live music showcase BusCall Nashville has decided to part ways with Tin Roof after six years of residency. The last show will take place on June 5 before CMA Fest.

The news comes as the BusCall team prepares to explore a new opportunity that aims to elevate the showcase experience. Details regarding the opportunity are still under wraps.

“We are incredibly grateful for the support and partnership we’ve enjoyed with Tin Roof over the past six years,” share Justin Bralts and Jon Sepulveda, Co-Owners of BusCall Nashville. “Tin Roof has been an amazing home for us, and we will always cherish the memories we’ve made there. However, we believe that now is the time to pursue a bigger opportunity that will allow us to take BusCall to the next level.

“We wouldn’t be where we are today without the incredible community that has surrounded us at Tin Roof,” they continue. “We’re grateful for the memories and friendships we’ve made, and we look forward to creating many more in the years to come.”

With a commitment to supporting the local music community, BusCall Nashville seeks to provide up-and-coming artists with a platform to display their talents in front of enthusiastic audiences.

“We’re excited about what the future holds for BusCall Nashville,” add Bralts and Sepulveda. “We can’t wait to share more details with our fans very soon.”

Georgia Webster To Explore The ‘Signs’ On May 31

Georgia Webster is set to release her third album, Signs, on May 31. She shared a new track from the project, “This Ain’t A Breakup (feat. Nightly),” today (May 10).

Webster drew inspiration from artists like Olivia Rodrigo, Kelsea Ballerini, Kacey Musgraves and Lennon Stella who all share the female perspective of broken relationships on the new track, where she expresses the “will they, won’t they” feelings she encountered while navigating young love.

Working with producer King Henry, the artist sought to develop a more mature sound on the new collection that captures her cross-genre influences and new direction she is hoping to head as an artist. The eight-song project features previously-released tracks “Attention” and “Delusional.”

“I wrote ‘This Ain’t A Breakup’ about a situationship that ended last year,” notes Webster.”This guy and I had been going on dates and doing all sorts of relationship-type things, but we never put a label on it. When he ended it with me, it felt like I was going through the worst breakup of my life. As I was feeling all the emotions, I thought of the lyric ‘if this ain’t a breakup, then why am I broken?’ and took it to the studio with some of my friends later that week.

“When the song was finished, I couldn’t help but feel as if something was missing—especially since Connor Moye, one of my cowriters on the track, sang on the original demo—so I reached out to Jonny [of Nightly] to hop on it with me,” she continues. “I have been such a fan of his for a while so I am very excited that he agreed to it and cannot wait for everyone to hear how it came out.”

Signs Track Listing:

1. “Attention”
2. “Delusional”
3. “This Ain’t A Breakup”
4. “Jupiter”
5. “Town Talks”
6. “Wedding Song”
7. “Life Before You”
8. “This Ain’t A Breakup (feat. Nightly)”

Blessing Offor & Dolly Parton Team Up For ‘Somebody’s Child’

Dove award-wining artist Blessing Offor has teamed up with music legend Dolly Parton for a new collaboration, “Somebody’s Child.”

The song, co-written by Offor, Josh Ronen and Joy Williams, begins with Offor’s vocals and piano playing before Parton joins in with a vocal choir. The lyric is a reflection on compassion and humanity.

“We’re all ‘somebody’s child,” Offor explains. “It’s such a simple concept, but I hope it’s the beginning of us all realizing that there’s always a point of empathy, there’s always common ground if we want to find it. And there’s no better embodiment of finding common ground, finding relatability, than Dolly Parton. I’m so honored and humbled to have her on this project.”

“I know it’s too easy to say it was a blessing singing with Blessing,” adds Parton. “But it was. I love the song “Somebody’s Child” and I am very proud to be a part of it.”

Thomas Rhett Releases New Track From Upcoming New LP Due In August

Thomas Rhett is scratching his head at his luck as he releases his new single, “Beautiful As You,” from his upcoming seventh studio album set for release Aug. 23 via The Valory Music Co.

A high-energy celebration of hitting the romantic jackpot, the track is a tribute to those lucky enough to be reminded every day that they are loved by someone way out of their league, and Rhett is set to debut it on the upcoming 59th Academy of Country Music Awards. Produced by Julian Bunetta, “Beautiful As You” is the follow up to Rhett’s 22 No. 1 singles, which has the hit-maker feeling re-invigorated and ready to push the creative envelope.

YouTube video

“This is an anthem for everybody who feels like they out-kicked their coverage,” Rhett says with a laugh. “There was one day a couple years back when I was looking at my wife, and I was like, ‘Why in the world did you choose me?’ I get to be with someone who could easily be on the cover of a magazine, and I get to see her in all her forms—a partner, a mother, a friend, even a philanthropist. I just feel like I’ve got a first row seat at almost-perfection, if you will. And like the song says, ‘Seriously, what is somebody as amazing as you doing with somebody like me?’

“Lauren and I are just in a different phase of life than we have been for awhile,” he continues. “Now it’s a little easier to go on date nights, do stuff with friends, stay up a little bit later—I don’t know, maybe even sleep in a little bit! So much of my music is a reflection of the stage of life we are in—we’re in a very joyful season—and this song is just the tip of the iceberg to the rest of this next album.”
