Trace Adkins Just Fishin' (Video)

Cindy Campbell — Mon, 20 May 2013 16:31:12 +0000

I’ll warn you right now, this post is a shameless gushing celebration of one of my favorite artists. I love Trace Adkins! And he’s on my mind today for two reasons – first, because he won “Celebrity Apprentice” over the weekend – and second, because I’m going to be seeing him in concert in New [...]

Dakota Bradley, 'Somethin' Like Somethin" – Song Review

Billy Dukes — Thu, 16 May 2013 20:30:52 +0000

Dakota Bradley’s debut single ‘Somethin’ Like Somethin” is a mostly charming pop-country love song that showcases the 18-year-old’s spunky personality. He doesn’t run from his Bieber-ness. Instead, he adds just enough steel guitar to keep him on the right side of the radio.Â This singer will appeal to a younger country audience. One glance at [...]

Kellie Pickler, 'Someone Somewhere Tonight' – Song Review

Billy Dukes — Tue, 14 May 2013 18:00:05 +0000

Kellie Pickler delivers an inspired performance with a new single called 'Someone Somewhere Tonight.' The song -- originally recorded by Kenny Rogers -- is a soaring ballad that touches a range of emotions. Few will find nothing relatable on the singer's first release from an upcoming album.

Keith Urban, 'Little Bit of Everything' – Song Review

Billy Dukes — Mon, 13 May 2013 20:00:18 +0000

Perhaps it should be no surprise that after five months spent judging 'American Idol,' Keith Urban has delivered his most pop-friendly single to date in 'Little Bit of Everything.' The talented singer and guitarist uses tricks in production that a less established singer would be skewered for. The result is a delightful summer jam that's short on nutritional content.

Lauren Alaina, 'Barefoot and Buckwild' – Song Review

Billy Dukes — Thu, 09 May 2013 17:00:59 +0000

Meet the new Lauren Alaina. With just a few weeks of her senior year of high school remaining, the singer introduces a grown-up new look, grown-up style and grown-up attitude with her latest single, 'Barefoot and Buckwild.' It's especially difficult to find songs that fit when you're short on life experience, so the one-time 'American Idol' runner-up wrote her own ...

Dierks Sings With a Mainer (Video)

Cindy Campbell — Wed, 08 May 2013 15:38:55 +0000

As we gear up for this summer's Waterfront Concert Series, I keep going to You Tube, looking for cool videos of some of the artists we'll see in Bangor this summer. I've always loved the Dierks Bentley song "Beautiful World" and especially the fact that he sings it with Maine native Patty Griffin!

Lady Antebellum, 'Goodbye Town' – Song Review

Billy Dukes — Mon, 06 May 2013 21:00:19 +0000

Charles Kelley's desperation turns to anger by the end of 'Goodbye Town,' the second single from Lady Antebellum's new 'Golden' album. The song finds the trio working their bread and butter: heartbreak and a yearning for love lost. Sonically, this song forges ahead with fresh production, but it's not quite as exciting as the lead single, 'Downtown.'

Love Makes us do Crazy Things! See Hunter Hayes 'I Want Crazy' Video'

Nelson Jewell — Fri, 03 May 2013 19:00:55 +0000

Love does indeed make us do crazy, irrational things. I bet there was a time or two in your life that you did something so out of the ordinary for the one you so desperately loved. I also bet that even now you’d do it all over again. That’s really what Hunter Hayes is singing [...]
