Fiercely independent, Jamey Johnson recorded much of "That Lonesome Song" on his own prior to licensing it to Mercury Nashville in early 2008.  It's a complete song cycle that chronicles a dark period in Johnson's life.  Like all great songwriters, he's channeled that darkness into a stark collection of timeless songs.

In a remarkable streak of radio success (which has also been backed up in concert ticket and album sales), Brad Paisley is now country music's hottest hitmaker with a string of chart-toppers that reaches back over three album releases to 2005.

With a pair of hit singles, a few awards and a coveted Grammy Award nomination for "Best New Artist," to say that 2008 was a great year for Lady A is an understatement.  With the new year a few weeks old, the trio is now out to make 2009 even greater.  Will this single help them?

At the suggestion of friends, Joey+Rory entered CMT's "Can You Duet" despite not really being an active duo before.  They didn't win the show but are the first artists from it to release their debut album. And what a fine album it is.

With this single, Tim's label Curb has culled a seventh radio track from "Let It Go," a record which was released nearly two years ago.  While some of those singles failed to do much, the last one, "Let It Go," Went Top 5.  Will this ballad have similar success?

Warning: Tradtional country music ahead.  With Todd Fritsch having secured a successful regional career, he continues to turn out solid traditional songs (with steel guitar solos no less) that should please many people but will radio give this fine

Known more for his good looks and his relationship to the equally good-looking Julianne Hough, Chuck Wicks returns to radio with the very strong "Man Of The House," probably the most traditional-sounding track on his debut single.  That being said, why should we care about it?

With an ominous melodic backdrop, "Devil In The Mirror" comes at you quickly.  By the time Richie Fields' his you with that voice of his, you're sure to have bought into what he's singing, without even really listening to the lyrics.  He's that good. Is the song worth this praise?
