Ryan Hurd recently released his debut album, Pelago…
…which features the smash-hit song “Chasing After You” with his wife Maren Morris.
While that track from the album is the favorite of many, Maren shares her favorite from Pelago, “I have a couple of favorites, but the one that I’m excited for everyone to hear is called ‘Hell Is An Island.’ And it’s just a really unexpected turn from what you think it will be about. The title is just so mysterious and when you hear it, I don’t want to give anything away but it’s just very jammy and you just want to like hear it at a festival and rock out. But it’s, it’s also just a brilliant lyric, but I’m jealous.I’m jealous I wasn’t a writer on it. That’s the ultimate compliment.”
Ryan agrees with Maren’s pick, “I’m glad that’s your favorite, that’s one of mine too.”
American Idol fans now know where the next season will start…Febraury 27th 2022
ABC TV has announced American Idol will return for a fifth season Feb. 27. Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie return as judges, and Ryan Seacrest is back for the 5th Season on ABC, and 20th season overall.
Luke is now a seasoned pro on Idol when it comes to judging talent, but he admits that he’s learned and changed up some things since he first began on the show, “I think how I’ve changed as a judge is when I really, really like something, I know it, and when I don’t, it’s like let’s get back to the talent. Sometimes we get some wild and crazy artists in there, and if it’s practical, I like to try to be the champion. If it’s a little out there for me, I’m more vocal about that. But the beauty of me and Lionel and Katy is we really kinda can feed off of each other. We know what each other’s thinking, and it’s a true friendship and a true partnership with all of us. I mean, we’re really focused to find the best talent we can find, because it certainly validates our show and it gives us purpose and reason for being there…we’re working 12 hour days, multiple days in a row, and we want our work to really come to light by finding the right winner and even getting the Top 10 perfect.”
As fans wait for the new season to start – they can check out a pretty talented guy in the meantime…Luke Bryan’s current single at country radio is “Up”
Check out Luke’s performance from this year’s CMA Awards….

Casi Joy loves this time of the year, “I am a Christmas fanatic” – and in 2021 this alumni of The Voice is putting her own spin on the holiday classic “Winter Wonderland.”
Casi shares why she picked the song she did to record this holiday season, “‘Winter Wonderland’ has always been one of my favorites!”
She also admits that she didn’t give her team much time when it came to making the track, “I’m very impulsive, and decided just a few weeks ago to record it! This is not the first time I’ve given my poor producer, Zach Hord, absolutely no time to track and mix a full song, but he nails it every time!”
Even in that short time period, Casi made sure that this recording of “Winter Wonderland” had a unique sound, “I wanted to put my own classic twist on ‘Winter Wonderland” with ‘yodely’ flairs and traditional instrumentation, and I’m so happy with how it turned out! Christmas time has always been like a big bowl of nostalgia for me, so it felt right to go back to my traditional roots for this song!”
When it comes to the holidays and that “big bowl of nostalgia” – turns out, that was handed down to Casi, “My family really does it up on Christmas, and the traditions are endless! My favorite one would have to be the game we play to guess which presents are ours! My mom comes up with themed code names for each of us (like football teams, Disney princesses, Star Wars characters) and we have to stand by the pile/code name we think is ours! Whoever guesses their code name correctly wins $20! The problem is, pretty much every year, my mom loses the list with the code names or forgets who’s present she wrapped, so one of the guys always ends up opening decorative towels or something!”
Make your Christmas season a little merrier with Casi Joy’s take on “Winter Wonderland.”
