Rising country act Gloriana will be representing country music, along with Taylor Swift, this coming Sunday when the American Music Awards program is telecast on ABC TV.  The Embem/Warner Brothers Quartet is up for Breakthrough Artist Of The Year.

Even though "It's America" went #1 on the charts and the follow-up single "Fifteen Minutes" scored a Top 15 hit for Rodney, he seemed to be losing his charming homespun likeability.  That has changed as this single returns him to exactly what made him a star, relatability.

Love and Theft scored a Top 10 hit, the only new artist of 2009 to do so (so far),  with first single “Runaway” off of their debut album World Wide Open and now the trio has moved on to their follow-up single in “Dancing In Circles.”  Will the song be a hit?

You better take this from me: Carrie Underwood’s Play On is like a disease.  This disease is one that assaults your senses so that you are now listening to contemporary country pop record.  Is this good or bad? Or is it both?

After stumbling their way to #30 with "Fight Like a Girl" earlier this year, Bomshel seems to finally have something that their career has previously lacked: momentum. "19 and Crazy" has broken into the 40 with surprising speed, but should it be moving this fast?

While most of Taylor's fans likely have the original version of Fearless, they're likely going to want their own copy of this album as well as it features not only one or two bonus tracks but six new ones along with a dvd full of videos.

Watch Jessie James' debut country music video. It's a song from her self-titled debut album for Interscope Def Jam Records.

The Bellamy Brothers have been writing and recording hits for many years now and to remind folks that they're still around they've come out with this comprehensive collection of their past (and present hits).

Jimmy Wayne has made no secret of his love for the music of Hall & Oates, particularly their smash 1976 hit "Sara Smile."  While most people thought he'd eventually cover it for an album, never would it have been seen as a single, yet here it is.  Will the song be a hit?

With two #1 hits under his belt from his third album Little Bit of Life Billy Currington certainly is understandibly riding high.  Will this new single continue the hit streak or does it signal a 'safe' approach to garnering airplay in hopes of a solid, middle of the road career?
