The record business is notoriously fickle and not prone to second chances yet here James Otto is with his second release. Does his perseverence pay off or fall flat?

Major record labels often follow trends when signing new artists. While some may insist that Capital Nashville's newest group is a trend follower, they might actually be blazing a trail.

With a voice that was made for Holiday music, Faith Hill presents her Christmas album.  With a complete orchestra behind her, the album is quite a yuletide treat.

Blessed with the ability to turn plain words into musical poetry, Bruce Robison has carved out a highly-regarded career as a singer-songwriter. "The New World" is his latest album and has many of the hallmarks of his past albums along with a leaner, rawer sound.

The path to country music stardom has rarely gone through Salt Lake City, Utah or London, England. The fact that Julianne Hough’s path to music city took her through both cities is unprecedented.

In an unusual move, Capital Nashville has chosen to release a "Greatest Hits" album only 3 albums into his career. Instead of 'just releasing' it, the artist involved his fans in the creation of it.

While it wasn't intended to be the original single from the band, it was part of the soundtrack for Toby Keith's movie "Beer For My Horses."  Now with the EP, the trio presents 3 other fun tracks in addition to the single.
