Kelsea Ballerini has a Valentine’s Day surprise for the lovers and brokenhearted alike, as the singer-songwriter just released her new Rolling Up the Welcome Mat EP and an accompanying short film. The project follows Ballerini’s 2022 album Subject to Change.
The intimate, six-song collection doesn’t explicitly mention her marriage and 2022 divorce from fellow artist Morgan Evans, but it’s clear those life-altering events have shaped these songs in numerous ways. In a song called “Just Married,” she notes, “It felt like forever that December 2,” her and Evans’ real-life wedding date,...

Katy Perry and Thomas Rhett dive into the dreamy minds of their young artist selves in the new video for “Where We Started,” out Tuesday.
The Patrick Tracy-directed video captures the two musicians — Rhett in a denim jacket, Perry in a flowy dress and corset — as they sing to each other from separate ethereal rooms and reminisce about their teenage dreams.
In her verse, Perry reflects on her fraught journey to stardom — she released a Christian album under her birth name as a teen — and recalls “playin’ my guitar...

Dan + Shay have dropped a new song, “Lying,” along with an accompanying music video. The clip, directed by Dani Vitale and Patrick Tracy, is set in a dive bar where the musicians perform the lovelorn track before gamely joining a group of line dancers.
“I don’t miss you in my bed/I don’t hear you in my head,” the duo croon on the piano-driven song. “I don’t love you, I’m not crying/And I swear I’m not lying.”

Despite a shuffling performer line-up due to multiple positive tests for Covid-19, the Country Music Association Awards were held on Wednesday at an in-person ceremony at Nashville’s Music City Center.
In the days leading up to the ceremony, four acts — Rascal Flatts, the recently renamed Lady A, Florida Georgia Line and “I Hope You’re Happy Now” singer Lee Brice — were forced to pull out from the show after either being exposed to or testing positive for Covid.
But as they say, the show must go on, and the Reba McEntire and Darius Rucker-hosted ceremony went ahead as planned, honoring some of the biggest names in country music.
Eric Church took home the night’s top prize for Entertainer of the Year, which came up for grabs this year after seven-time winner Garth Brooks took himself out of the running. “It’s time for somebody else to hold that award,...

On September 1 the Country Music Association announced the nominees for the 54th Annual CMA Awards, and Miranda Lambert came out on top with seven bids. That not only makes her the most nominated artist of the year, it makes her the most nominated female artist of all time. Her career haul of 55 noms surpasses former record-holder Reba McEntire, who amassed 50.
Lambert is up for Entertainer of the Year against Eric Church, Luke Combs, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban. Absent is defending champion Garth Brooks, who recently withdrew his name from consideration after winning seven times. Lambert’s additional six bids are for Single of the Year (“Bluebird”), Song of the Year (“Bluebird”), Album of the Year (“Wildcard”), Female Vocalist of the Year, Musical Event of the Year (“Fooled Around and Fell in Love”) and Music Video of the Year (“Bluebird”). That’s every single category she was eligible for.

The nominations for the 54th CMA Awards are out this morning, and they don’t include country music legend Garth Brooks as a nominee for the Entertainer of the Year award.
That’s because Brooks voluntarily disqualified himself in late July, saying that he’s won too many times — seven, to be exact, including last year’s — and wants to give the opportunity to another artist.
It was a tweet from a fan that steered Brooks to the decision.
“It said, ‘Hey, man. This guy, why doesn’t he just step down (and leave) the entertainer for the next generation?’ 100% agree,” he told press according to The Tennessean. “It’s time for somebody else to hold that award.”
That leaves the possibilities open this year to Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Luke Combs and Eric Church. May the best country star win.

Listening to Dan + Shay’s new song “I Should Probably Go to Bed” under headphones can send you floating, thanks to its heavenly mix of vocal harmonies and sweeping strings. The video does likewise: the premise involves an entire house that becomes unmoored, lifting off skyward à la Pixar’s Up.
But this is no gentle cartoon. The video, directed by P. Tracy, is dark and restless, with suspenseful set pieces that evoke Cloverfield or some vintage creature feature. In one scene, traffic comes to a sudden stop on a town’s street,...

Multiple instances of Devin Dawson abound in the new video for “Asking for a Friend,” the latest single off the California native’s debut album Dark Horse.
Playing off the song’s title and the ambiguity of Dawson’s narrator in the song — is he asking for himself, or literally asking on behalf of a friend? — the clip directed by Patrick Tracy makes use of reflection, camera angles and editing trickery to create a whole host of Dawsons moping around the swanky space with hat in hand. It’s a...
