Miranda Lambert, Chris Stapleton – A Song To Sing

MIRANDA LAMBERT & CHRIS STAPLETON’S LANDMARK COLLABORATION “A SONG TO SING” OUT NOW

Country music giants Miranda Lambert and Chris Stapleton deliver their first true duet collaboration with “A Song To Sing,” reflecting the truth of giving one’s soul to the music and heart to the one at home. Written together with Jesse Frasure and Jenee Fleenor, the song available everywhere now.. Listen HERE.

The sound is indelible, rising from an era that’s shaped the last five decades of Country music. When Lambert and Stapleton emerge from the low-key shuffle, smoky Wurlitzer clouds and silken guitars, it’s obvious that “A Song To Sing” is destined to join the list of most-beloved classic Country duets. Trading lines before soaring together on the chorus, the longtime friends deliver a poignant message about finding peace and purpose in love – and in the music made along the way:

You are a part of me
Baby you’re the heart of me
Together we can write a song to sing
And in that melody
Baby you’re the harmony
That you just can’t find anywhere

Lambert and Stapleton boast a combined 14 GRAMMY, 33 Country Music Association and 59 Academy of Country Music awards and have each influenced generations with their singular artistries and distinctive creative points of view. Produced by GRAMMY-winning Dave Cobb, “A Song To Sing” allows Lambert – who passed her ACM Entertainer of the Year title to Stapleton in 2023 – to witness the singular reality they share as they harken back to an era of music epitomized by Ronnie Milsap, Waylon Jennings and especially the classic Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers duets.

Of the respected visionaries, Pollstar writes, “at a time when Country is so many things, Lambert and Stapleton seem both a true north and a hinge for the future…Musically robust, they want to make actual Country music with their roots firmly planted, but with the ability to create on their own terms. It’s not fighting Music Row as much as fighting for greatness.”

Dan Davidson – Buckle Rubbin’

RETURNING TO AUSTRALIA’S SHORES THIS AUGUST CANADIAN COUNTRY MUSIC STAR DAN DAVIDSON RELEASES HIS NEW SINGLE, BUCKLE RUBBIN’

Canadian Platinum-selling country artist, Dan Davidson, is no stranger to our shores with multiple trips ‘down under’. In August, Dan returns as the first ever International Ambassador for the Gympie Music Muster; performing across the festival weekend. To celebrate his forthcoming trip, Dan releases his infectious new single, Buckle Rubbin’

Dan Davidson turns up the charm with his cheeky new single Buckle Rubbin’ – a playful country love song that’s as clever as it is catchy. Packed with personality, this fiddle-and-steel-driven track captures the thrill of making a move on the dance floor, closing the distance and testing the sparks – one sway at a time. This song is a steamy, romantic anthem for anyone who’s ever let that last call music lead them closer…and closer…until those belt buckles start rubbin’.

As Dan, describes it, “”I wrote Buckle Rubbin’ with my friends Emma Lee and David Borys. Funny enough, we were working on a completely different song when something a friend once said suddenly popped into my head. The phrase “buckle rubbing” just hit me – and I knew that was the song we were supposed to be writing. As soon as I said it out loud, everyone lit up and we instantly shifted gears. The result is a fun, cheeky country song about mustering up the nerve to get as close as possible on the dance floor with that someone you’ve been shamelessly eyeing all night.”

Dan recently also became a co-founder (alongside The Road Hammers) in the new music label, Skysong Records. Distributed by the Orchard globally and partnering with ABC Music in Australia.

Charley Crockett – Crucified Son

CHARLEY CROCKETT DELIVERS PART TWO OF THE SAGEBRUSH TRILOGY WITH BRAND NEW ALBUM DOLLAR A DAY OUT AUGUST 8, 2025

CO-PRODUCED BY CROCKETT AND MULTI-GRAMMY® AWARD-WINNER SHOOTER JENNINGS

LEAD SINGLE “CRUCIFIED SON” OUT NOW

“Widely hailed as the real thing by those who find Nashville’s mainstream product too processed.” -The New York Times Magazine

Charley Crockett, the GRAMMY® Award-nominated, critically acclaimed country iconoclast, will release his second album of 2025, Dollar A Day, on August 8 via Island Records. Once again joined by creative kindred spirit and GRAMMY® Award-winning co-producer Shooter Jennings, the new LP marks the second installment in The Sagebrush Trilogy, coming just five months after Lonesome Drifter, part one of the trilogy and his Island debut. Pre-order/Pre-save HERE. Watch the album trailer HERE. Swaggering lead single “Crucified Son” is out now.

A truly singular artist who refracts various strains of American music through his incomparable prism, Dollar A Day may very well be the apex of his signature “Gulf & Western” sound to date. Like its predecessor Lonesome Drifter, Dollar A Day was recorded at the fabled Sunset Sound Studio 3 in Hollywood, CA, with Crockett and Jennings once again helming the proceedings. “With Shooter, I’ve never felt more like myself in the studio,” explains Crockett. “I don’t feel judged. At all. It’s truly a partnership. Hell, I’d say he’s my best friend, and you can’t aspire to greatness without that kind of trust. With Lonesome Drifter, it felt like we opened the portal. With Dollar A Day, we stepped through and came out the other side.”

The Sagebrush Trilogy began back in March with Lonesome Drifter, and the initial salvo was met with a wide range of critical praise – Pitchfork says “Crockett seems both talent-wise and generationally well-placed to build a bridge between genres through the sheer force of his writing” while NPR Music says Crockett has “really effortlessly carved out his own space” – and saw Crockett notch his biggest debut on the Billboard 200 yet. Lonesome Drifter was also the #1 album sold at indie record stores across the U.S. in its first-week. In March, Crockett joined The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon for a stunning performance of Lonesome Drifter standout “Easy Money.” Watch HERE. He also stepped out in front of the iconic Austin skyline background at ACL Live at the Moody Theatre to tape his return to Austin City Limits TV for the show’s upcoming 51st season in addition to appearances on CBS Mornings, The Daily Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, NPR Music’s “Tiny Desk,” and most recently The Joe Rogan Experience where Charley first announced Dollar A Day – listen here. Crockett has also been nominated for the 2025 Americana Honors & Awards for Artist Of The Year and Album Of The Year for Lonesome Drifter.

Crockett is currently in the middle of a stretch of headline dates that saw him return to Red Rocks last week, and in August, he will head out with longtime friend Leon Bridges on “The Crooner & The Cowboy Tour.” The tour begins August 26th in Milwaukee, WI.

ABOUT CHARLEY CROCKETT:

“Street busker turned critically acclaimed singer-songwriter turned actual country star” (Rolling Stone), Charley Crockett has never been someone who asked permission to take a shot at his dreams. Instead, the GRAMMY® Award-nominated Texas-born maverick defied the odds at every turn, tapping into a rebellious strain of country, rising from an open guitar case on a Louisiana sidewalk to selling out some of the world’s most renowned venues. Crockett has paved a singular path out of Texas, taking his home state wherever he goes and bringing his signature “Gulf & Western” sound to the world. Crockett and his music have received praise from The New Yorker, The New York Times, Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, and Variety, and garnered hundreds of millions of streams. He picked up his first GRAMMY® nod earlier this year, and in the last year alone, he notably headlined Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, CO, twice, played the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, CA, and sold out two nights at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN. Speaking to his impact, CBS Mornings chronicled his journey, and he’s sat down for interviews on The Daily Show and most recently The Joe Rogan Experience. Plus, he’s graced the stage for performances on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Austin City Limits, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and CBS “Saturday Sessions” in addition to playing behind NPR Music’s “Tiny Desk.” With multi-GRAMMY® Award-winning Shooter Jennings as co-producer, the same unapologetic spirit, diehard work ethic, and no-nonsense honesty drive Crockett’s latest era, resulting in The Sagebrush Trilogy. Beginning with his Island Records debut Lonesome Drifter in March 2025, the trilogy continues with new album Dollar A Day, out less than five months later.

Jake Banfield – Lasso

RISING ARTIST JAKE BANFIELD UNLEASHES HIS GENRE-DEFYING NEW SINGLE “LASSO”!

With over 1.2 million followers on TikTok and a rapidly expanding fanbase across all major platforms, Jake Banfield is fast becoming one of the most exciting breakout artists of the year.

The 25-year-old singer-songwriter returns with his bold new single, “LASSO”-a genre-blending, emotionally-charged anthem that has already surpassed 6 million Spotify streams and over 1.2 million streams on YouTube views within weeks of release.

“LASSO” showcases Jake’s signature sound: a genre-blending fusion of country roots, pop accessibility, and alternative edge, wrapped in honest, emotionally resonant storytelling. The song uses Western imagery and modern production to explore themes of emotional entanglement, longing, and the feeling of being roped into something deeper than expected.

“LASSO” is the latest single from Jake’s highly anticipated debut album, set for release in September 2025. Fans can expect more of what’s made Jake so relatable and beloved-authentic lyrics, genre-defying melodies, and a fresh perspective on modern country-pop.

Hailing from Mannford, Oklahoma, Jake Banfield’s music is inspired by a wide array of influences-from ’80s rock and hair metal, to ’90s R&B and hip-hop, to 2000s pop and modern country. His sonic blend draws comparisons to artists like Sam Hunt, Post Malone, Russ, and Kane Brown, yet remains distinctively his own.

Though he once envisioned a future in basketball, a chance encounter with a pawn shop guitar rerouted his path-and soon after, Jake found his voice and his audience online. His viral rise began with acoustic originals on TikTok, quickly capturing the attention of millions with his authenticity, vulnerability, and magnetic presence.

David Vaters – The Truth Will Set You Free

Don’t just listen-awaken. The truth is coming July 18th!
Singer Songwriter David Vaters’ Anthem of Clarity

THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE

In an era of information overload, fake news, and hidden agendas, David Vaters delivers a timely and powerful anthem with his NEW single, The Truth Will Set You Free. Vaters crafts a country rock anthem that feels both urgent and timeless-a call to intellectual awakening that resonates just as deeply today as it would have 2,000 years ago.

From the opening lines, Vaters sets the tone with a modern-day lament:
“I read the headlines on my android / And boy I got to tell you now / I don’t believe it for a minute / Something smells high up to the heavens.”

With a sharp, prophetic edge, he challenges listeners to question the narratives fed to them, warning against deception in an age of spin and manipulation. The song’s driving rhythm and raw, earnest vocals give it a heartland country rock energy, while the lyrical depth roots it in gospel and faith-based tradition.

The chorus is a bold declaration, echoing the words of Scripture with unshakable conviction:
“Ya, the truth will set you free / That’s straight from the man upstairs / And ya know he knows whose pulling your strings.”

Vaters doesn’t just sing-he testifies, urging listeners to seek wisdom and discernment. The track’s crossover appeal lies in its seamless fusion of social commentary and spiritual exhortation, making it equally at home on rock, pop and even Americana playlists.

The bridge offers a liberating invitation: “You can be a slave as long as you want to / And if you want to you can break free… today.” It’s a rallying cry for personal and collective freedom, wrapped in a melody that’s both anthemic and intimate.

With The Truth Will Set You Free, David Vaters has crafted more than just a song-it’s a movement. Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or just someone hungry for authenticity in a world of noise, this track demands to be heard. Stream it, download it, add it to your playlists-and let the truth resonate.
