First Listen: Kelly Clarkson "Tie It Up"
America’s first Idol, Kelly Clarkson, who has had multiplatinum success with pop anthems and power ballads, is tapping into her southern roots with her latest single “Tie It Up.” The singer first hinted at a promising country career when she teamed up with her childhood idol – and future mother-in-law – Reba on the country legend’s Duets record.

What The GIF? Vol. 4
The sun is shining and the allergies are in full swing, which can only mean one thing: it’s May! I realize my updates have been few and far between lately, but I promise it’s not because I don’t love you all (that only applies to some of you).

But I couldn’t let you go any longer without serving up another helping of What The GIF? With the nice weather, and my new project in full swing, I’m ready to get back into the routine of things…

Listen! It’s Vetrano!: Reality Hits Nashville
As a blogger in the digital age, I have the pleasure of sharing my thoughts and musical recommendations with thousands of people that I know personally (and intimately *wink, wink*) and others of whom I probably will never get the chance to meet. For those of you in the second category, I’m sorry I’ve neglected to introduce you to my highly inappropriate and snarky side. The side I’m most proud of, really. Since the New Year, I’ve had the pleasure of talking to many of my readers in Nashville about what they want to see on this space. That’s when “reality” hit me. So without further ado I introduce the…

The Voice: Season 3 Finale
Last night the final 3 contestants on NBC’s hit reality competition ‘The Voice‘ had one last chance to win over America’s vote. Ultimately it was a one-horse race as season frontrunner Cassadee Pope separated herself from the other two with her epic performances of Faith Hill‘s “Cry” and a rerun of her season breakout “Over You” – a track that coach Blake Shelton penned with his wife Miranda Lambert. Shortly after the former Hey Monday frontlady performed the Lambert hit on the show, radio stations across the nation picked up her version as a single. The first time a contestant from the series has had this kind of mass appeal before…

The singer-songwriter withdrew from high school, packed up his car, – which became the roof over his head – and moved to Texas.…

On May 1st, Carrie Underwood returns with her fourth studio album Blown Away. The fourteen track country crossover album, including the hit first single “Good Girl”, was named one the “Most Anticipated Albums of the Year” by Entertainment Weekly.
