Dakota Bradley's 'Somethin' Like Somethin" – Song Review

Georgia — Tue, 21 May 2013 14:00:37 +0000

Dakota Bradley is a young (very young!!) up-and-comer in country music. He’s under Tim McGraw’s wing and he has a promising career ahead of him. His debut single, ‘Somethin’ Like Somethin” is charming and filled with pop-country goodness. He’s 18-years-old and doesn’t run from that. But the song has enough country twang to make it [...]

Zac Brown Band's 'Jump Right In' – Song Review

Georgia — Thu, 16 May 2013 14:05:03 +0000

Zac Brown Band’s latest single, ‘Jump Right In’ is another testament to how much fun these guys love to have. Since their last album, ‘Uncaged’ came out, this song has been the opener for their concerts. And rightly so, ‘Jump Right In’ is the logical choice to begin a concert. And the lyrics provide the [...]

Kacey Musgraves 'Blowin' Smoke' – Song Review

Georgia — Sat, 11 May 2013 01:00:05 +0000

Kacey Musgraves has made a lot of new fans with her debut single, ‘Merry Go ‘Round.’ She’s going to make a lot more with her second single, ‘Blowin’ Smoke.’ The song is about the life of waitress and her desire to get away from that scene. Kacey Musgraves is not your run-of-the-mill country artist. And [...]

Lee Brice's 'Parking Lot Party' – Song Review

Georgia — Sun, 05 May 2013 15:00:55 +0000

Lee Brice’s new single, “Parking Lot Party’ is a great summertime anthem! The previous Lee Brice hits like ‘I Drive Your Truck’ and ‘A Woman Like You’ are soft, sensual and even tearful. But ‘Parking Lot Party’ is a far departure for the South Carolina native. Maybe he needed a little pick-me-up after all those [...]

Chris Young's 'Aw Naw' – Song Review

Georgia — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 19:29:41 +0000

Chris Young’s new single, from the title, sounds like a cheesy stereotypical country song. It’s anything but… ‘Aw Naw’ is a song I could see listening to with my girlfriends as we get ready for a night out on the town! It reminded me a little of college, getting ready to go out around 10pm, [...]

Hunter Hayes 'I Want Crazy' – Song Review

Georgia — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 02:00:12 +0000

You heard Hunter Hayes perform his new single on stage at the ACM Awards. But did you really get a good listen to the song? Well, you’re in luck! Listen to it here! Hunter has a way of singing very wordy songs, but the ability to keep them very clear and entertaining. “Who cares if [...]

Little Big Town, 'Your Side of the Bed' – Song Review

Georgia — Tue, 09 Apr 2013 19:13:29 +0000

I heard this song before Sunday night’s performance on the ACM’s. I liked the song, but after watching Little Big Town’s performance of it, I now love the song. What a moving performance! And the song is something that (I’m sure) resonates with a lot of couples that have fallen out of that “honeymoon phase” [...]

The Band Perry's 'Done' – Song Review

Georgia — Tue, 05 Mar 2013 20:16:12 +0000

The Band Perry has written some pretty depressing songs. Great songs, but sometimes they’re pretty dark. Their new single is a strong departure! The second single from The Band Perry‘s second album, ‘Pioneer’ is upbeat, fast and loud. ‘Done’ is about just that – being done with a relationship. “You crossed the line too many [...]

Lisa Matassa's 'Somebody's Baby' – Song Review

Georgia — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 20:14:01 +0000

Country newcomer Lisa Matassa is from Long Island and brings a mix of pop and rock alongside a booming country voice. And she happens to be a part of Cat Country 107.3′s Partner in Hope Concert! For those of you that became a Partner in Hope with us during our Cat Country Cares For St. [...]

Gary Allan's 'Pieces' – Song Review

Georgia — Tue, 19 Feb 2013 15:43:13 +0000

Gary Allan’s follow-up single to ‘Every Storm (Runs Out of Rain)’ is an uptempo country/rock song that is more optimistic than his other songs. The song tells the story of how every little experience builds together to make Allan whole. Piece plus piece has made him who he is today. Predictable, yes. But it’s a [...]

Jana Kramer's 'Whiskey' – Song Review

Georgia — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 20:42:29 +0000

Jana Kramer’s second single ‘Whiskey’ proves that’s she’s into this country thing for the long haul. The singer/actress debuted this song back in 2011 on her TV show ‘One Tree Hill.’ But it didn’t really make an impression until she put it on her album Jana Kramer that came out in June of 2012. I [...]

Kenny Chesney's "Pirate Flag" – Song Review

Georgia — Wed, 06 Feb 2013 20:30:45 +0000

Kenny Chesney‘s new single, “Pirate Flag” is classic Chesney. The song talks about leggy models, salty air and island living. Cat Country 107.3 started playing the new tune last week in heavy rotation. And for good reason. The song isn’t immediately catchy, but keep listening and you won’t be able to get the soft melody [...]

Greg Bates 'Fill in the Blank' Song Review

Georgia — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 20:34:38 +0000

Greg Bates has a great sense of humor. And his new song ‘Fill in the Blank’ proves that fact. It’s a short song (it’s only 2 minutes and 28 seconds long!) but the charming lyrics and good beat lend a hand to make it unforgettable. “We could / in the water, in the truck / [...]

Florida Georgia Line's 'Get Your Shine On' – Song Review

Georgia — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 15:56:16 +0000

As if ‘Cruise’ by Florida Georgia Line wasn’t good enough, they have out done themselves with their latest single, ‘Get Your Shine On.’ Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley make up Florida Georgia Line and they have proven that they are the next good-timing country party band to come out of Nashville. Or, well, out of [...]

Darius Rucker's 'Wagon Wheel' – Song Review

Georgia — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 15:38:14 +0000

I am so excited that Darius Rucker has covered this song! Originally recorded by Old Crow Medicine Show, this song has been a sleeper hit for them for several years. Now, Darius Rucker can give it the exposure that it deserves! You can’t help but tap your toes and sing along to the beat of [...]

Hayden Panettiere's 'Telescope' – Song Review

Georgia — Wed, 09 Jan 2013 20:11:19 +0000

Hayden Panetierre plays Julliette Barnes on the TV show "Nashville." She really sings (and plays the guitar...) on the show, so with the show's success, of course she's going to put out some of the music! Here's my take on 'Telescope'...
