Estes signed her first publishing deal in 2020 and has since racked up more than 13 million streams across platforms and over 1 million views on YouTube, building a quickly growing fan base with her “vocal prowess and subject matter range” (PEOPLE). In 2022, “Thinkin’ ‘Bout Cheatin’” became the first release from her debut EP as well as her first music video feature on CMT.

Dillon Carmichael
July 17Recently named a New Face of Country Music by Country Radio Seminar, Carmichael has also spent much of the past few years out on the road, with his live history now including sharing bills with legends like Dwight Yoakam and touring across Europe as support for Jon Pardi. “People always ask if I get nervous before I go onstage, but the truth is playing a show is the only time I’m not nervous,” he says. “For that hour or so I can forget about everything going on in the world, and just focus on doing what I love.” And as he gets set to release Keepin’ Country Alive, Carmichael hopes his songs might provide others with a similar sense of joyful relief. “There’s a lot of different themes on this record—one song might make you want to call your mama, another might make you want to throw down and party, some songs might make you cry,” he says. “But no matter what, I hope they help you to forget about your problems for a while, to not overthink things or take yourself too seriously, and just take a little time to remember all the good things in life.”

matt vanfossen
July 24Making music that comes from the heart and touches the soul...that's what Matt VanFossen does best.
Matt VanFossen is not your average cookie-cutter country artist. He is real, he is honest, and he is true to the music he loves. Through his personal tragedy and triumphs, music has always been there, and his powerful and heartfelt vocals grab you from the first note.
His latest single is no exception. Produced by Mike Ofca, “Where You Gonna Run to Now“ is a song that talks about running from your problems. The lyrics, “When you run out of roads, run out of reasons, run out of luck and lies to believe in, Where You Gonna Run to Now?”, are powerful and relatable to all. It's about letting go; knowing that you deserve better, and finding that strength to leave the past behind. Everyone has that certain someone in their lives that they'd like to say, ”you missed your chance... you lost the best thing that ever happened to you."
