New and Exciting
Lot's of new music has dropped in the past few weeks, and I've especially been looking forward to Megan Moroney's new Album, Am I Okay?
If you've listened to it, I'm curious if you have a favorite. Here's mine:
How about that HARDY album, Quit!!, too? I've seen mixed reactions to it but I haven't yet listened through the full thing.
Don't forget that the WQMX studio line is for more than just our great local contests- you can text or call in 24/7 to chat about whatever is on your mind. I'm happy to discuss new music with you anytime!
That number is 330-370-2000 for Your Country! 94.9 WQMX.
On TV Yesterday and TODAY!
Last night was a big night on late night TV! First off, Hailey Whitters made her late night debut singing her debut single "Everything She Ain't" on JImmy Kimmel Live! What a moment for the rising star:
HARDY and Lainey Wilson made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to sing their duet "wait in the truck", and once again (thinking back to their CMA performance) this was soooo good!
HARDY then made an appearance on the third hour of the TODAY show to talk about his new album and sing another song off of his new album "the mockingbird & THE CROW", this one's called "screen":
It's HARDY Album Release Day!
The wait is finally over, HARDY dropped his new album 'the mockingbird & THE CROW' at midnight today! The new album which is half country and half rock, already has two singles that are climbing up two different charts. You've heard "wait in the truck" featuring Lainey Wilson on 94.9 WQMX and his single "JACK" has been played on our sister station 107.3 Alternative Cleveland! We're not kidding when we say we are HUGE supporters of HARDY!
When HARDY first announced that he would be releasing his sophomore album, he also previewed "here lies country music", "TRUCK BED", the title track "the mockingbird & THE CROW". Those songs definitely left fans, including myself, really wanting to hear the rest of this album. The titles stylized with lowercase titles for the country side, and all caps for the rock side so you know which is which, but it really doesn't matter. All the songs showcase his brilliant song writing and each song recorded with passion in the vocals as only HARDY could to tell the stories in each song.
As a fan, I love every song on this album, but I couldn't wait to hear "happy". When Sarah Kay asked HARDY which of the songs off of the album was his favorite, that was the one. All of the songs on the album were co-written by HARDY, except that one, that one was all him. It's a song that personifies the word 'happy', the lyrics turn 'happy' into a person and it is so good! Take a listen below and make sure to add "the mockingbird & THE CROW" to your collection!
