Switchfoot continues rolling out the deluxe edition of The Beautiful Letdown (Our Version) with a cover of the album’s title-track by the Jonas Brothers. Switchfoot released a re-recorded take on their hit 2003 album earlier this year.
The Jonas Brothers’ take on “The Beautiful Letdown” is very faithful, with Nick and Joe delivering the song in their distinctly angelic vocals. They’re a perfect fit for this track, likely because of their long fandom of Switchfoot and this particular album.

Morgan Wallen has undoubtedly been the most successful country artist of the 2020s so far. The 29-year-old singer and songwriter has had two of the biggest albums of the decade: his 2021 release “Dangerous: The Double Album” and his recent 2023 collection “One Thing at a Time.” But Wallen has also been relevant for his controversies, whether it is partying during lockdown or his infamous drunk incident where he said the N-word. Especially since it happened amid widespread public discussion about racial inequalities in the US, Wallen was ostracized from the country music industry, although his fans seemed more enthusiastic than ever to support him. Wallen has since apologized and been welcomed back into the industry, but he’s still being ignored by Grammy voters. However, it’s 2023, and a new era of Wallen’s music is upon us. Will this year change things, or will Wallen remain goose-egged?

Alanis Morissette is using Sunday’s 2023 CMT Music Awards as a networking event for female country stars, she told Et from the red carpet.
“I love the sisterhood,” Morissette told Et’s Cassie Dilaura before heading into the show. During the ceremony, she’ll make her CMT debut with a performance of “You Oughta Know” alongside Ingrid Andress, Lainey Wilson, Madeline Edwards and Morgan Wade. The collaboration is the ten-year celebration of the Next Women of Country franchise.
“Being onstage, just with energy, I mean I’m usually so solitary onstage,” she continued. “I’m with my amazing band mates but as a woman, I’m up there alone. So to be with women next to me who are very, very soulful is like being wrapped up and swaddled.”

Kane Brown and Katelyn Brown’s touching duet about finding the one won over the hearts of the CMT Music Awards.
The married couple’s hit, “Thank God,” was named video of the year Sunday and broke Carrie Underwood’s four-year winning streak to collect the top prize.
“This is all so new to me and when we recorded this song a year ago, I never in my life would ever think that this was going to happen,” Katelyn Brown said onstage, kissing Kane Brown afterward.
“I want to say thank you so much to my amazing husband. I love you. This is so special that we get to share this together every night.”

A couple of members of a fresh generation of country music — Jelly Roll and Lainey Wilson — came away as the top victors at Sunday night’s CMT Music Awards, broadcast live from Austin for the first time. But the biggest winners may have been CMT and CBS, putting the three-hour telecast on the map as a show packed with enough performance firepower that there is merit to it having transitioned from a cable platform to major broadcast network of last year.
However much the official winners may delight a core country crowd happy to see young radio and streaming favorites get rewarded, the big draw for the CBS audience was likely a series of collaborations between country stars and their pop or rock counterparts, as has been the custom for years on the rival CMA Awards. Most notable were the all-female collabs that had Carly Pearce dueting with Gwen Stefani...

Alongside the Country Music Association Awards, the Academy of Country Music Awards are the pinnacle of the country music scene, although they have a tendency to lean commercial and snub artists like Brandi Carlile and Willie Nelson who are currently less prominent on country radio. With this year’s nominations just around the corner and many artists potentially in the mix, let’s take a look at the best of the best in the world of country and whose names you should expect to see on nomination morning.
As with virtually every country music award show these days, if there’s someone you can bet will be nominated, it’s Luke Combs. The uber-popular singer-songwriter has been one of the biggest names in the genre, dropping some of the biggest hits of the past 10 years. This time around, he will be competing with his latest record, “Growin’ Up.” The album...

When you talk about award shows, you have to talk about campaigning, by which artists are able to get their material out there in hopes that voters become more familiar with them and their craft. This year a few methods, both new and old, stand out as great ways of getting on the radar during Grammy season.
SEEGrammys flashback: Clash of the ’90s titans when Alanis Morissette beat Mariah Carey “Tiny Desk Concert”
NPR’s “Tiny Desk Concert” remains the best campaigning method right now. The intimate online series provides artists an opportunity to showcase their talent in a more intimate setting where their musicianship can be more easily appreciated. The series especially appeals to musicians, which is obviously more effective when it comes to Grammy campaigning since the Recording Academy is made up of industry professionals, and it has helped many surprise nominees like Anderson .Paak in 2016 and Jacob Collier...
