13 years ago Liv Carter Comments Off on Concert Review: Jeffrey Steele – Franklin 4 the Cure Benefit – September 15, 2012
On Saturday, September 15, 2012, Jeffrey Steele performed at the Franklin for the Cure benefit, a very worthy cause raising funds for Vanderbilt University’s Monroe Carrell Chidren’s Hospital. To further help the charity, the evening’s host, GAC’s Storme Warren, helped auction off a signed acoustic guitar halfway through the show – an auction which brought Read More

Single Review: ‘You Go Your Way’ – Alan Jackson

13 years ago Liv Carter Comments Off on Single Review: ‘You Go Your Way’ – Alan Jackson
Songwriters: Troy Jones, Tony Lane, David Lee Alan Jackson has released a third single, ‘You Go Your Way,’ from his Thirty Miles West album. ‘You go your way/and I’ll go crazy’ ends the chorus, but Jackson’s telling of this tale reveals not a hint of any descent into ‘crazy.’ Instead, we get a matter-of-fact performance Read More

Songwriters: Michael Carter, Brandon Kinney, Cole Swindell After his impressive, self-titled debut album, Craig Campbell is ready for the sophomore release challenge. He starts out strong with first single, ‘Outta My Head.’ You can sanitize your surroundings of the material reminders of that lost love but you can’t run from your memories, such is the Read More

13 years ago Liv Carter 3
Songwriters: Thomas Rhett, Rick Huckaby, Lance Miller Following his debut single, top 15 hit ‘Something to Do with My Hands,’ Thomas Rhett gets a little more serious on the follow-up. From the hypothetical of ‘if you could have a conversation with a historical figure…,’ he imagines what he would do if he could have a Read More

Single Review: I Like Girls that Drink Beer – Toby Keith

13 years ago Liv Carter 3
Songwriters: Toby Keith, Bobby Pinson There is a difference between releasing material geared toward an audience and pandering to it. While Toby Keith has been good at doing the former, he is often guilty of the latter. As such, he has been populating too many of his songs with beer-swilling ‘dudebros.’ And now, apparently, he Read More
