Country Sensation Houston Bernard Lets Listeners In On New Single, “People We Are”

Country Sensation Houston Bernard Lets Listeners In On New Single, “People We Are”

With well over 1.5 Million streams across platforms, Boston, MA’s Houston Bernard continues to croon his country and rockabilly roots in freshly pressed single, “People We Are” — available now.

True-blue country through-and-through, Bernard writes the majority of his own music, “but I’m always open to recording others,” Bernard shares of the new track penned by Nashville-based Billboard Top 20-charting songwriting powerhouse Cole Taylor (Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Chase Rice) and Kim Penz. “And when my manager asked me to listen to this song, I knew it was right for me.”

Known across previous album releases — including Knockin’ Boots (2015), Lucky Man (2018), and the self-titled EP, Houston Bernard (2013) — for upbeat, relatable music with powerhouse vocals, recent singles “People We Are” (2021), “The Drivin’” (2020) and “American Dream” (2020) further showcase the country gent’s timeless twang that transcends age and resonates far and wide.

Houston Bernard comes from a long line of country living — both musically, and otherwise. He has shared bills with Luke Bryan, Old Dominion, Granger Smith, Montgomery Gentry, Marshall Tucker Band, Clint Black, and more, and been featured across notable Spotify playlists, The Country Network, and The Heartland Network.

A direct descendent of the famous gunfighter George “Bittercreek” Newcomb — a ‘Most Wanted Man’ in the 1890s, and a member of the notorious ‘Wild Bunch’ (who inspired The Eagles hit, “Desperado”) — Bernard’s father and uncle were a local staple known as the Rebel Brother, playing in various country bands backing the likes of Tanya Tucker and Sleepy LaBeef.

“My dad’s family had a large farm in Norman, Oklahoma,” Bernard shares. “It was a small community at the time and my father was still going to a one-room school house. My dad told me that, when he was growing up on the farm as a small boy, they were still using an outhouse — only eventually putting their own plumbing and electricity in the home.

“It seems like that would be 100 years ago, but it was not.

“My Uncle Johnny Bernard made his entire life playing and writing country music until he passed in 2003,” Bernard offers, detailing his familial draw to the craft. “I’m coming from a long line of country musicians which, making a career of music is not an easy thing to do. I’m proud to carry the same ethics for hard work and outlook into both my life and my music.

“Quality over quantity.

“To me, the story in ‘People We Are’ upholds all the philosophies and ethics of the Bernard family, which I’m proud to represent,” he continues. “Growing up on the farm in Oklahoma, generation after generation… My dad’s family was all about the standards of doing the right thing, being self-sufficient, living within means, and building something that will stand the test of time.

“I think this song represents just that, and I hope others connect with it as I have.”

Catch the Season Finale of Acclaimed New Musical Fairy Tale Series, Outta The Books

The Land of Once Upon a Time is all abuzz; who will create the best song to save the Treasury of Tales? Acclaimed new musical fairy tale series Outta The Books concluded its first season this week with its seventh episode — available now!

Written by Canadian media icon Erica Ehm, the season one finale sees the librarian at the Treasury of Tales choose the winner of the “Once Upon A Tune Talent Contest.” But will the contestants themselves unfairly influence her decision? Only those who tune in to Outta the Books will find out.

Featuring an international team of musicians, producers, and actors, Outta The Books launched as a multi-platform entertainment series in November 2020. Originally set for a theatrical debut at the 2020 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the StorySongs creative team pivoted once the pandemic hit, and Outta the Books is now an entirely virtual multimedia experience for kids and families.

Outta The Books harnesses the power of music, the most universal of communicators, to tell simple, time-tested and meaningful tales, one StorySong at a time. Characters inspired by familiar fairy tales and fables come to life as they keep stories alive through song.

Alas, the world has nearly forgotten the joy and power of time-tested stories, and so The Librarian of the Treasury of Tales decides the best way to keep them alive is through music. She organizes a talent search, which attracts a motley crew of characters who perform their original songs, each based on a classic tale like Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, the Ugly Duckling, Emperor’s New Clothes, the Tortoise and the Hare, Snow White, and more. Some of the contestants are shy (the Blue Fairy), some are a little bit wicked (the witch Trixie and the wolf C-Major), some very talented but hopelessly vain (Prince Pollywig), and two are so talentless and self-involved that they are disqualified from the competition (Warble the Ogre and Princess Euphony).

StorySongs and Outta the Books are the brain children of award-winning composer and producer Brian Banks. Banks assembled an accomplished cast of theatre actors, including star Karl Queensborough (“C Major,” who comes from a line of Big Bad Wolves) and Carl Spencer (Prince Pollywig) from the current cast of the London production of “Hamilton” and others based in Britain, Canada and the United States. The Librarian (Annie Kirkman, an accomplished Yorkshire based musical theater actor and producer) hosts each episode.

The show has evolved into a cooperative, creative lockdown production, with Banks in Los Angeles, director Neil Fisher in Liverpool, and writer Erica Ehm in Toronto, with all involved in every shoot remotely via Zoom.

Singles from Outta the Books have been released, and the full cast recording will be available from all music sources on February 26th (which happens to be National Tell a Fairy Tale Day). A new season of Outta the Books adventures is in pre-production, and a podcast and children’s book are in the works.

Ziggy Marley, Oscar-nominated Yalitza Aparicio And Brazilian Stars Natiruts Encourage The Union Of The Americas In “América Vibra”

“No queremos hambre, nosotros somos vida. No queremos armas, nosotros somos paz. No queremos odio, nosotros somos amor,” Yalitza Aparicio recites in “América Vibra”

Kicking off the year with a powerful song and crying out for a better 2021, Brazilian band Natiruts invited one of the world’s greatest names in Reggae, Ziggy Marley, and Oscar-nominated Mexican actress Yalitza Aparicio to collaborate in “América Vibra.” More than a Reggae anthem, the song is a manifesto that calls on the peoples of the Americas to unite, demanding a world with more justice and love. At a time when duality and walls – both physical and structural – set us apart, “América Vibra” makes an urgent request for the bridging of barriers.

The song released on Wednesday 20th January, a symbolic day that marked an important change for the world, and the single radiates a desire for a more egalitarian continent.

Ziggy Marley says: “It’s a great pleasure to collab with Natiruts and Yalitza on this song “América Vibra”. My lyrics is talking about realizing what’s going on with the environment and wanting to see some justice in the world. If we don’t do anything, nothing is going to happen, so we have to do something. I have to do something, you have to do something – that’s what we’re talking about. If the future is not right, I will make it right. We can’t wait for somebody else to do it, we have to do it. We have to take care of the planet, take care of each other and just build a better world together. América vibra!”.

Composed by Alexandre Carlo and Ziggy Marley, and performed in Portuguese, English and Spanish, “América Vibra” is backed by an award-winning team: Felipe Tichauer, with 26 nominations for the Latin Grammy and the Grammy under his belt, is in charge of mastering; and mixing is handled by 10-time Grammy nominee Tony Maserati, one of the most successful sound engineers in the world, who has worked with artists such as Beyoncé, Ariana Grande, and Adam Lambert, among others. The song also features exclusive cover art by Kobra, one of the most renowned muralists of our day, with works in five different continents.

Directed by Rick Brombal, the music video is an exciting profusion of iconic images from the Americas (Brazil, Mexico, and the U.S.), encircled by nature, as in a kind of oasis, free from the hostile environment that surrounds them. In unison, Natiruts, Ziggy Marley, and Yalitza Aparício make an appeal for the union of peoples.

Natiruts lead singer Alexandre Carlo spoke about the context that led the band to vibrate for a fairer America: “There are invisible walls in society, created mainly by human relationships and experiences in the past that still affect our daily lives. In the case of Brazil, and especially the Americas, the main relationship that gives rise to these invisible walls is the colonization process, which favored some and greatly disfavored others.” He emphasizes the meaningful role of music in this process: “Music is a very important tool, because it changes the vibration frequency, people’s energy, it leads the hopeless to believe in their own potential. In this sense, music becomes quite important to tear down these invisible walls, and that is what our song proposes, and we hope that it can captivate the hearts and minds of many people, not only in Brazil, not only in the Americas, but in the entire world.”

“The importance of ‘América Vibra’ is to show that music has no boundaries and it’s a way to send messages of peace, just as unity makes us stronger in the face of adversity. When there’s respect among people, you can witness a real transformation,” actress Yalitza Aparicio explained. “I was thrilled when Sony invited me to participate, because I’ve always been a fan of reggae, I never believed that Ziggy and Natiruts could choose me to collaborate with them. I accepted immediately, albeit with fear, as being a part of this industry makes us targets to all kinds of criticism. I try to focus on the purpose of each project, because, as you know, I’ve always accepted the challenges that come to me, especially when they’re accompanied by such a strong and hopeful message,” she concluded.

In the future, the song will be part of the worldwide release of Natiruts new original project, which will be available on all digital platforms by early April. A well-established band that’s been around for more than 25 years, Natiruts’ compositions have the ability to speak of hope and positivity without falling into the trap of detachment.

Carrie Underwood To Release “My Savior” Album Of Gospel Hymns On March 26

Seven-time GRAMMY Award winner Carrie Underwood will follow the extraordinary success of her recent Christmas album, My Gift, with an album of gospel hymns, titled My Savior. The new album will be released on CD and Digital March 26, 2021, just prior to the Easter holiday, and on vinyl April 30. My Savior is co-produced by Underwood and GRAMMY® Award winner David Garcia, with whom she co-produced her critically acclaimed 2018 album Cry Pretty, her seventh album to be certified Platinum or Multi-Platinum by the RIAA.

My Savior, which will consist of covers of traditional gospel hymns Underwood grew up singing, is a spiritual companion to Underwood’s first-ever Christmas album. “It’s been such a blessing to make music like this, inspirational music that is near and dear to my heart,” says Underwood. “These two albums have been on my musical bucket list since the beginning of my career and were planned long before the events of the past year, but somehow it feels like the perfect time to share these beloved songs with the world.”

Underwood’s co-producer on My Savior, David Garcia, is a multi-platinum selling, four-time GRAMMY Award-winning record producer and songwriter. With his early roots in Christian music, over the past decade he has achieved chart-topping success across multiple genres of music with over 20 #1 songs to his credit. He has twice been named ASCAP’s Christian Music Songwriter of the Year (2015 and 2019), has written three ASCAP Award winners for Christian Music Song of The Year, as well as won nine Dove Awards. In addition to co-producing the Cry Pretty album, Garcia and Underwood’s collaborations include co-writing tracks such as her #1 hit “Southbound” (with Josh Miller), “Drinking Alone” and “Love Wins (both with Brett James), all of which have been certified Gold by the RIAA, as well as the original tracks “Let There Be Peace” and “Sweet Baby Jesus” (both with Brett James) on My Gift, among others.

Released September 25, 2020, My Gift topped charts throughout the holiday season. It debuted at #1 across multiple global charts, including Billboard Country, Christian and Holiday charts, marking Underwood’s eighth straight album to debut #1 on the Billboard Country chart. The album went on to claim the #1 spot on that chart for six non-consecutive weeks (four consecutive weeks). The album remained at #1 on the Christian chart for 14 weeks and debuted #1 on the UK country chart (her fifth #1 on the chart) and #1 on the Canadian country chart. My Gift consistently remained in the Top 5 on the Billboard Holiday Album Chart throughout the season, including #1 for six non-consecutive weeks. It reached #5 on the all-genre Billboard Top 200 and appeared in the Top 10 for six non-consecutive weeks. Additionally, My Gift was the #1 selling album for 2020 in all genres at Amazon.

Five songs from My Gift appeared on the Top 40 Holiday Radio Music Chart: “Hallelujah” (duet with John Legend), which was the third most played current title across all radio stations running holiday music in 2020; “Little Drummer Boy” (featuring her 5-year-old son, Isaiah Fisher); “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas;” “Let There Be Peace” and “Mary, Did You Know?” Underwood became the first woman to replace herself at #1 on Billboard’s Hot Christian Songs chart when “Hallelujah” sent her Amazon Exclusive “Favorite Time of Year” to the #2 spot, marking her third #1 on that list. Additionally, for three straight weeks, she held the top three slots on the list, with her recording of “Silent Night” at #3, making her the first artist to hold the top three positions on Hot Christian Songs for multiple weeks.

My Gift featured a combination of beloved traditional favorites celebrating the spiritual nature of the holiday, as well as several new originals, including the two written by Underwood, Garcia and James. GRAMMY® Award-winning producer, mixer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Greg Wells produced and arranged the album.

New Documentary on Acclaimed British Singer-Songwriter Paloma Faith Announced

New Documentary on Acclaimed British Singer-Songwriter Paloma Faith Announced

BBC Music TV today announces Paloma Faith – As I Am, a one hour film for BBC Two and BBC iPlayer, which follows over a year in the life of the singer-songwriter, Paloma Faith.

Paloma has had number ones all over the world, multi-million albums sales, headlined Glastonbury and sung to tens of thousands every week, but in recent years, she has taken on her toughest challenge yet – having a baby.

With unlimited access to Paloma as a woman, a mother and an international pop-star in the public eye, this film follows Paloma on an emotional journey, as she balances the demands of a vital make-or-break tour with writing a new album, launching an acting career and being a first time mum.

The film observes Paloma’s life, both front and backstage, in the midst of a pivotal year in her career. It features appearances and contributions from Rag’n’Bone Man, Ty Taylor and Jonas Blue as well as her band, management and family members. We see her struggling with choices every mum will be familiar with, whilst embarking on enormous career challenges in a cut-throat business.

Paloma not only returns to work after having her baby, but also to huge expectations to break Australia and America. At every turn, we ask ‘Will Paloma pull it off? Will she be successful and if so, what sacrifices will she be forced to make?’

Paloma says: “I was very reluctant to let a camera into the very personal experience of working as a first time mum but Jane Mingay who made the film is also a mother and a friend so I felt safe. The result is very telling, exposed and at times emotional for me to watch. Also, I hope it’s a testament to all working mothers out there. As a feminist, I don’t believe in aiming for patriarchal ideals in order to be a success. I believe in embracing our feminine strengths and abilities in order to try and navigate success in a male dominated and judged world. The film I hope gives some insight into this.”

Jan Younghusband, Head of Commissioning, BBC Music Television says: “Paloma Faith – As I Am, from first time director Jane Mingay, shines a light on Paloma’s incredible achievements in her career to date, whilst also taking an honest look at the reality of balancing the commitments of parenthood with a demanding career. It’s a warm and often moving film and I’m delighted that we’ll be able to bring Paloma’s inspiring story to viewers on BBC Two.”

Paloma Faith – As I Am is a 1 x 60 film produced by Andy Glynne for Mosaic Films and directed by Jane Mingay. It was commissioned by Patrick Holland, Controller, BBC Two and Jan Younghusband, Head of Commissioning, BBC Music TV. It will be shown on BBC Two in the coming weeks.

What is a personal loan? If you find yourself in a financial bind, this might be a question you have wondered once or twice.

In a nutshell, a personal loan is money you borrow from a lender that is paid back in a series of installments. You will have to pay interest on the loans and you might be charged additional fees. There are many different types of personal loans that you can use, depending on your situation and the amount you need.

Unlike other loans, personal loans are relatively easy to secure and they are funded quickly, giving you the money you need to handle an emergency situation or an unexpected expense. If you are wondering about the types of personal loans that are available, this short and simple guide is for you.

Unsecured Loans

An unsecured loan is a loan you secure without any collateral. You qualify for the loan based on your creditworthiness. If you are wondering if an unsecured loan is for you, consider getting guidance from bonsaifinance.com.

Secured Loans

One of the most popular personal loan options is a secured loan. This is a loan you qualify for based on the collateral you put up. Collateral can be anything from the title to your car to real estate.

Personal Lines of Credit

A common personal loan type is a personal line of credit. This type of loan is similar to a credit card, you have a limit you can withdraw from during a certain draw period.

As long as you pay the balance, you can continue to borrow. When the draw period is up, you have to pay any outstanding balance on the account.

Debt Consolidation Loans

If you want to consolidate your debt, consider getting a personal loan. A debt consolidation loan is useful for combining your high-interest debt into one low-interest payment. These loans are ideal for unsecured debt, such as credit cards, payday loans, medical bills, and more.

Payday Loans

A payday loan is a type of loan that is an advance on your paycheck. You apply for the loan and repay it by an automatic withdraw on or around your payday. These loans are typically high-interest and are ideal for emergency situations.

Credit Card Cash Advances

A credit card advance is a type of loan you can get without being approved. If your credit card has a cash advance feature, you can borrow up to your limit by withdrawing the funds from a bank or an ATM. If your card doesn’t have a cash advance, consider contacting customer service.

These Are the Common Types of Personal Loans

These are the common types of personal loans that are available.

Depending on your situation, you may need an unsecured or secured loan. You can also apply for a personal line of credit or a debt consolidation loan. Payday loans and credit card cash advances are also valid options when you need funding.

These are the most common types of loans you can apply for.
