Jenna Paulette
On the heels of being named Apple Music’s Country Riser of the Month for March, Paulette arrives with her debut album, The Girl I Was.
The concept for the album, produced by Will Bundy with impressive writer credits including Rhett Akins, Jessie Jo Dillon and Ashley McBryde, surfaced while Paulette was attending a writers’ retreat. She was driving alone, content with her blue heeler as her passenger, enjoying the sunset in the distance, when an image of her eight-year-old self came to mind. She reminisced on the simplicities of life then – a freckle-faced child helping her grandfather on the ranch – dirty, full of purpose and well-loved. She was determined to get back to her.

Elvie Shane
Marking the first new music since BBR Music Group/Wheelhouse Records singer/songwriter Elvie Shane’s acclaimed Backslider album debut, Shane shares his new song “Forgotten Man” out now. An anthem for those chasing the American dream with calloused hands and a weary, but still-believing heart, it’s another example of Shane’s deep-feeling take on country, co-written by the rising star with Dan Couch, Luke Preston, and Oscar Charles.

Scott Stepakoff
Is it ironic that Scott Stepakoff, a happily married songwriter with two kids, is releasing a song about a guy who is going through a painful divorce and pawned his wedding ring for $162? Maybe it is, but it’s hard to argue with raw emotion that resonates. Persuaded by a viral Tik Tok moment, Stepakoff, a veteran Nashville songwriter who spends his days writing music and pursuing artists to cut his songs, is the artist on this old school sad song, aptly named “162,” that is true even though it didn’t happen to him.

HunterGirl
2022 American Idol runner-up and 2023 “Artist to Watch” (Music Mayhem), HunterGirl released “Lonely Outta You.”
“There are a lot of songs about guys telling girls, ‘Hey, you’re lonely, let me make you less lonely,’ and when I was thinking about that, there aren’t really songs from a girl’s perspective on this that makes the same connection,” says HunterGirl. “Everybody gets lonely sometimes. I wanted to give another perspective and tell the other side of the story.”

The Milk Carton Kids
Tommy Prime
“I wrote this song about the first panic attack I had,” says Tommy Prine about his new tune “Reach The Sun.” It happened before he played his very first show. “Even though it was something I had always wanted for myself, the gravity of what I was about to do set in and it was hard to process,” Prine remembers. Like the rest of the songs from Prine’s upcoming debut This Far South—out June 23rd.

Caylee Hammack
Caylee Hammack is back with an emotionally raw new song “History Of Repeating” is out now.
“Love is my weakness, my kryptonite even,” shared Hammack. “It’s the small girl inside of me looking for true love, and really believing I’m going to find it. This song is a very honest admission of some bad decisions that I think anyone can relate to making… those decisions sometimes we repeat, even though we know it’s not what is best for us. The humanness of our habits and hearts and a swig of Jack Daniel’s for flavor.”
