The Weekly Single Recap: The Week Of August 2, 2013: New songs from Jake Owen, Luke Bryan,

This week Chuck Dauphin takes a look at 10 new singles including songs from superstars Brad Paisley, The Band Perry, Jake Owen and Luke Bryan. He also checks out songs from six other artists including Jeff Bates, Outshyne and "The Voice" contestant Adley Stump.  

Adley Stump - “Like This” (TuneCore):

Heavy with the attitude, but a rock swagger rather than a rap one. She screams with charisma.

Brad Paisley - “I Can’t Change The World” (Arista):

It’s OK. I love the instrumentation. But, it just left me short of a spark.

The Band Perry - “Don’t Let Me Be Lonely” (Republic Nashville):

Maybe THE hit of the fall. Has crossover written all over it. Kimberly’s vocal is both vulnerable and confident. Harmonies are tight, as well.

Lexie Hayden - “Rainin’ On A Wednesday” (Independent):

Young and talented,  song isn’t going to win any awards, but there’s some potential for the future.

Luke Bryan - “That’s My Kind Of Night”(Capitol Nashville):

Will be a crowd favorite, but hasn’t he recorded this song before?

Jake Owen - “Days Of Gold” (RCA Nashville):

Rollicking beat, Owen sounds like he’s having fun. Love the earthy feel of the verses. Should be a sing-a-long favorite in concert.

Jeff Bates - “Forever 17”  (Skydancer Entertainment):

His voice is as distinctive as it has ever been. Song about everlasting love definitely deserves some attention.

Laura Bell Bundy - “Two Step” (Big Machine Records):

Bundy has always been a charmer, and she does so once again here. Sizzles like the humidity in the deep South.

Outshyne - “Moonlight Crush” (Millstar Entertainment):

Has a warm and inviting feel. Vocal is particularly effective.

Sam Hunt - “Raised On It” (Independent):

Sigh....
