When “Five More Minutes” hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart, Scotty McCreery and his wife, Gabi, were in the mountains. They popped a bottle of champagne at midnight when it was made official and “sprayed it like we won the World Series,” McCreery said.
The duo Two by Two will perform Wednesday night at 8:30 p.m. as part of the Acoustic Showcase series in the Front Room Coffeehouse in Baker University Center.
Good Morning,
The weekend is here, and so is new music. This week’s releases are heavily dominated by women of all genres. Whether your into folk-inspired Americana (First Aid Kit’s Tender Offerings) or indie-pop is more your vibe (Pale Waves’ debut My Mind Makes Noise), there are tons of female-led bands and artists to listen to. Here are some of the highlights:

Here is a list of all the competitive EGOT winners along with a few honorary:
The weekend is here and you all know what that means: new music. This week has been filled with some new albums from seasoned artists, as well as new singles from artists on the rise.

The weekend is arriving, and there are tons of concerts in the Athens area to attend. Whether music lovers are seeking rock music or folk is more their vibe, there’s definitely something for everyone. Here are some shows happening in different area venues.
Friday is finally upon us, which means new music releases are here as well. With the three-day weekend beginning, having tunes to soundtrack the festivities is a must. Whether you’re into indie pop (Troye Sivan’s Bloom would be your go to) or hip-hop is more your style (Kanye West’s slightly weird, new single “XTCY” is for you) there’s something that everyone can enjoy. Here are some of the highlights from this week’s new music releases:
Pioneering alternative-rock band Arctic Monkeys has finally released its new album, Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino. Released on Friday, the album follows 2013’s AM, which received both critical and fan praise. With the band’s new album, Arctic Monkeys changed its sound. Stepping away from their signature alt-rock vibes, Tranquility Base is funky and even a bit retro. In fact, the album seems to feature very little guitar.

Kendrick Lamar – arguably the best rapper of this generation – just won a Pulitzer for his 2017 album DAMN. You inevitably had a friend who shared something about it on social media if you aren’t in tune with Pulitzer Prizes. But what’s really cool is that this is the first time a hip-hop album has won. What is even cooler is that this is the first time any genre that isn’t classical or jazz has won.

I thought I’d take a break from promoting songs and promote some artists I’ve previously neglected that consistently put out great songs. They’re the special ones, afterall; I just write about them. Here’s seven musicians to start listening to if you aren’t already.
Looking at mountains from a distance is like looking at a movie poster outside a cinema. The size, shape and colors are evident, but the substance of mountains and foothills will not reveal itself without direct interaction — without going inside.
“O-H” Lorde screamed to a student-heavy crowd at Ohio State University’s Schottenstein Center on Saturday night. “I-O” echoed off the walls of the arena, much to the delight of the 21-year-old New Zealander.
Each of Vampire Weekend’s three albums has the distinct aroma of a different season.
The Growlers don’t have a bad song. Every album builds on the next, with better production and songwriting each release.
Certain musical approaches facilitate hyper-personal songwriting. Folk artists craft tragic autobiographical tales; pop musicians convey public and private breakups. But nothing matches hip-hop artists when it comes to self-referential lyrics.
Weezer has been cranking out alternative hits since 1994, and I’ve always been a fan. But the quest for popularity on its latest record, Pacific Daydream, left me confused and disappointed.
