Lauren Daigle Shares Inspiring New Song “Let It Be a Hallelujah”

Two-time Grammy Award winner and multi-platinum artist Lauren Daigle releases her heartfelt new song “Let It Be a Hallelujah,” out now via Centricity Music. Co-written with the late Busbee and Jonas Myrin, the track bridges the space between her landmark debut ‘How Can It Be’ and her breakthrough album ‘Look Up Child.’ It’s a stirring reflection on purpose and gratitude, capturing Daigle’s signature mix of powerful vocals, spiritual depth, and soulful sincerity.

“Eight years have passed since we wrote this song, a lot has happened since then,” shares Lauren. “I’m so grateful to have this song back in my life at this time, because had it been released after we’d written it, I wouldn’t have really understood it. The one thing that I can and will keep coming back to is that living a life of worship has never failed me.”

Since the release of her 2015 debut, Daigle has become one of contemporary music’s most beloved voices, amassing over a billion streams and earning two Grammy Awards, seven Billboard Music Awards, four American Music Awards, and twelve GMA Dove Awards. With “Let It Be a Hallelujah,” she continues her decade-long journey of faith, reflection, and connection, inviting listeners to find beauty and meaning in every season of life.

Tim McGraw Delivers Powerful New Song “King Rodeo (Live from the Inaugural Music City Rodeo)”

Three-time Grammy winner and country music icon Tim McGraw returns with “King Rodeo (Live from the Inaugural Music City Rodeo),” out now via Big Machine. Recorded during his headlining set at the first-ever Music City Rodeo in May, the live track captures McGraw’s signature storytelling and heartfelt delivery in front of a sold-out Bridgestone Arena crowd. “We’ve been working on a new record and we thought that this song was appropriate for the night,” McGraw tells fans before launching into the performance, which blends stripped-down production with the raw energy of the audience.

The video for “King Rodeo” premieres today on YouTube at 11 am ET/8 am PT, followed by an exclusive YouTube AfterParty for Premium subscribers. The visual offers a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the song and its deep connection to the rodeo spirit, featuring World Champion riders Cody Custer and Tim O’Connell, and World-ranked bareback rider Cole Reiner. Written by McGraw and Tom Douglas, and produced by Byron Gallimore, Denny Hemingson, and McGraw himself, the track reflects McGraw’s continued mastery of blending emotional truth with classic country grit.

The release of “King Rodeo” follows McGraw’s spring single “Paper Umbrellas” with Parker McCollum, and comes ahead of his landmark concert at the Field of Dreams site in Dyersville, Iowa, on August 30. The show marks the first-ever concert at the legendary movie location from the 1989 Kevin Costner film, coinciding with his late father Tug McGraw’s birthday. With more live dates to follow through the fall, McGraw continues to honor his legacy as one of country music’s most enduring voices.

Charcom and Luisa Wilson Deliver Dark Electro Intensity on “KEEP MY EYES ON YOU”

Manhattan-born producer Charcom joins forces with rising vocalist and songwriter Luisa Wilson on his newest single “KEEP MY EYES ON YOU,” out now. The track is a moody and seductive fusion of progressive house, melodic pop, and dark techno textures, marking Charcom’s most emotionally charged and ambitious release to date.

What began as a foggy sonic experiment in Berlin evolved into a pulsing late-night soundscape shaped by the city’s club scene. When Luisa Wilson added her ethereal vocals, the track took on a haunting intimacy. “This one feels like the most intense thing I’ve put out so far,” says Charcom. “It’s dark, emotional, and kinda chaotic in the best way. The production has this constant push and pull, and Luisa’s vocals just cut through everything. Definitely the kind of track that lives somewhere between the dance floor and your head at 2 am.”

“KEEP MY EYES ON YOU” unfolds gradually, with layered synths, smoky piano chords, and hypnotic percussion giving way to distorted bass swells and cinematic tension. Drawing inspiration from artists like Eli & Fur, John Summit, and SG Lewis, Charcom’s sound thrives in emotional precision, each element serving the story. It’s the culmination of his years studying at NYU’s Clive Davis Institute and translating the chaos of real life into melodic form.

Koe Wetzel Ignites Country Rock with New Single “Surrounded”

Country rock powerhouse Koe Wetzel returns with “Surrounded,” a gripping new single out now. Co-written by Wetzel with Josh Serrato, Ashley Gorley, and producer Gabe, the track marks his first new music since the chart-topping ‘9 Lives’ and delivers everything fans love about Wetzel: grit, heart, and unshakable honesty.

“Surrounded” paints a vivid picture of heartbreak and reflection, its lyrics unraveling the struggle of trying to escape a memory that won’t fade:
People say I’m losing my sht / Cause I ain’t got rid of yours yet / From the brush by the sink / The champagne we won’t drink / And the ring I guess you’ll never get / There ain’t nowhere I can hide / Got my whole damn world locked down / It’s a prison in my mind / There ain’t no breaking out.*

Initially teased at a radio event earlier this year, the song quickly became a fan favorite in Wetzel’s live shows. From his home state stadium dates in Texas with Morgan Wallen to high-energy festival appearances and his Jim Bob World Tour dates with HARDY, “Surrounded” has earned explosive crowd reactions everywhere it’s played.

“The way fans have connected with ‘Surrounded’ at shows made it clear this needed to be the first new song we put out,” says Wetzel. “It’s been fun seeing the fans hyped online this week and we’re excited for everyone to finally hear the full version.”

The release follows a monumental year for Wetzel, who scored five consecutive weeks at #1 with ‘High Road’ featuring Jessie Murph and dominated “Best Of” lists from major outlets including Rolling Stone, Billboard, LA Times, Tennessean, and Holler. He capped it all with sold-out Red Rocks shows, three new RIAA certifications, and a live album from the acclaimed Damn Near Normal World Tour, which drew more than 200,000 fans worldwide.

With “Surrounded,” Koe Wetzel keeps his foot on the gas, blending country grit and rock soul into one unforgettable sound.

PRYVT Return with Soulful New Single “When I Go” Featuring Big Naughty

Emerging Canadian-Korean duo PRYVT are back with “When I Go,” their lush and emotional new single featuring Korean rapper Big Naughty. Written and produced by Hanuel and Justin “JT” Tecson, the track melts together smooth alt-pop grooves, laid-back production, and soulful melodies. Big Naughty’s reflective verse brings an extra layer of feeling, making the song a heartfelt journey through memory, love, and loss.

“‘When I Go’ is a song about losing the memory of someone you love,” recalls Hanuel. “It could be viewed in either perspective. The one to lose the memories or the one to see the memories being lost. But choosing to stick by each other through everything and hoping the lost memories to be found in the mind once again.”

The single arrives alongside a cinematic self-directed video, filmed in Canada with Big Naughty’s scenes captured in Seoul. Blending visuals of romance and reconnection, the video mirrors the song’s tender emotion and dreamlike mood. “The video represents the two lovers reuniting and being able to share the moment together again,” says Hanuel. “The sense of anxiousness and relief is a big factor in what the video is wanting to portray.”

Formed online in 2023, PRYVT began as a digital collaboration between Hanuel and Tecson, who met through a Discord server. Their distinct musical backgrounds collided beautifully—Hanuel’s upbringing in worship and Korean ballads meeting Tecson’s jazz and production roots. Together, they’ve built a sound that bridges alt-rock, bedroom pop, and deep emotional storytelling.

Following their debut album ‘&Scene,’ PRYVT continue to explore themes of memory, connection, and healing through their music. With “When I Go,” they invite listeners into an intimate world where language blurs and emotion takes center stage.

MIRADOR Unleashes Rock and Roll Power on Debut Album ‘MIRADOR’

MIRADOR is out now, and it’s a roaring celebration of rock and roll’s enduring spirit. The new band co founded by Greta Van Fleet’s Jake Kiszka and Ida Mae’s Chris Turpin channels the fire of early folk, country blues, and mystical storytelling into their debut self titled album, ‘MIRADOR.’ Each track feels like a summoning of sound, a fusion of raw energy and timeless tradition.

The chemistry between Kiszka and Turpin is undeniable. They first met in 2018 when Ida Mae opened for Greta Van Fleet at the Fox Theatre in Detroit. Night after night, their shared passion for Charley Patton, Muddy Waters, Lightnin’ Hopkins, Martin Carthy, Bert Jansch, and Fairport Convention became the foundation for MIRADOR’s sound. “We were like long lost brothers,” says Kiszka. That brotherhood was captured perfectly in Savannah, Georgia, where GRAMMY Award winning producer Dave Cobb recorded the album live in just two weeks.

The first single, “Feels Like Gold,” glows with intensity. Set against the backdrop of conquest and war, it explores cultural collision and the pursuit of hope. The album’s songs span from the cinematic “Skyway Drifter” to the roaring “Heels of the Hunt,” and the emotional “Fortune’s Fate,” creating a complete universe of sound and story.

MIRADOR is taking this magic on the road with a full tour. Their November EU and UK run hits Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, London, and Dublin, followed by shows in Nashville, New York City, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Boston, Austin, and Portland, plus a newly added San Francisco date on October 4.

As Kiszka puts it, “We’re trying to immerse people in the world of MIRADOR and where we’re coming from. There’s so much duality in the album: the humanity, the soul, the adventure, the tyranny, and the journey.” MIRADOR’s arrival marks a thrilling new moment for modern rock and roll.
