interview

Granger Smith stopped by to hang out with Brett Alan before his show at the Toyota Taste of Country last Friday night at Coca Cola field.  While he was there we talked about the origin of Earl Dibbles Jr. and even got him to pick a winner on one of this year's games!

Siblings Kimberly, Reid and Neil Perry make up The Band Perry. The trio record, perform, promote, travel, eat...they spend a lot of time together. That alone would lead three people to have the occasional argument, but they are also siblings...

The Band Perry is "putting the finishing touches" on their third album "Heart + Beat" over the holidays. The record was rumored to be released on November 20, but with the surprise addition of a mystery collaboration and some additional polishing the debut has been pushed until 2016...

Country 'Burning House' singer Cam (Camaron Ochs) explains why you will always find her wearing yellow, who her celeb crushes are and her fear about going on tour with infamous prankster Brad Paisley in 2016. Cam's debut album came out on December 11, and Cam describes it as having "many layers" and a "California country vibe"...

Camaron Ochs (better known as Cam) released her debut LP Untamed today, Dec. 11! The songstress burst onto the scene earlier this year. Her lead single "My Mistake" stalled at No. 52 on the Country Airplay Chart, but her second single "Burning House" shot up the charts, reaching No...

I want you to picture people sitting in front of the CEO of a company and doing these things.

A Boston agency put out a job posting with some pretty ridiculous requirements and to top it all off the salary...was $0. Other requirements included a background in medicine, culinary arts and finance. Very little sleep, no vacation time and constant standing...

From songwriting to singing, Eric Paslay sure is making his mark on country radio/country music. You know him from his new #1 hit "Friday Night" that we play on WYRK, but you may also recognize songs he has written, like "Bare Foot Blue Jean Night", "Even If It Breaks Your Heart" and "Angel Eyes."

Fox 40 Sacramento reporter Sabrina Rodriguez came across her most eager interview ever when Mickey the baboon decided to show he's all hands while she did a live report from the Lodi Grope, er, Grape Festival. Oh, the perils of live TV.

Today, I was lucky enough to be surprised with a phone call from a couple of guys that have become huge country stars. With hits like "Cruise" and "Get Your Shine On", you can be sure you're going to be hearing Florida Georgia Line quite a bit this summer. Today they called me just to say hi.

Ok...I'll say it. I'm not really into the Oscars. I don't really watch the classy, well done movies much. I watch comedies. More often than not, the dumber the humor, the better.  There is, however, one actress who has recently caught my eye. It's Jennifer Lawrence, and she might have my favorite Post-Oscars interview ever.

The Taste of Country is coming on June 14!! Always a great show, and the stars always seem genuinely excited for it as well! I spoke with Gloriana about it today!
