Album Review: Maggie Rose’s ‘Cut To Impress’

By on February 25, 2013 in Album & Song Reviews

Just received an advance copy of Maggie Rose’s debut album on RPM Entertainment entitled ‘Cut To Impress‘ produced by Blake Chancey, Stephony Smith, and James Stroud.  The most recent single “I Ain’t Your Mama” (a playful, mid-tempo, female anthem) was released earlier this year to country radio and had some success by landing in the top 30.  I had hoped it would climb higher for this extremely-talented artist whose career I have followed since she went by Margaret Durante about a year and a half ago when she underwent a bit of an image revamp taking her from the blondish/brown longhaired “girl next door” to the short, playful platinum blonde bombshell image of the “girl next door” gone slightly bad (although, just between you and I, she’s not really bad at all, but a real sweetheart) and all grown up.  Just a fun image revamp to relaunch her as an artist; showing some growth and branding as an artist.  Yes, I said branding because as an artist they are also a brand.    Continue Reading →

By on February 25, 2013 in In The Press

Hot Country duo Florida Georgia Line have premiered their brand new video for “Get Your Shine On” today!

The exclusive VEVO debut was directed by Declan Whitebloom and shot on the white sandy beaches of Cancun, Mexico and features exciting scenes from the Hard Rock Hotel Cancun property. From dawn until dusk every day, the newcomers proved their love for all things aquatic from racing jet skis to filming underwater. The guys and their crew made a few “new friends” during a little lucha libre. The team also survived a flat tire on a deserted road while making their way to Tulum.

Florida Georgia Line Sell Out Shows Nationwide

The follow-up to FGL’s Double Platinum, multi-week #1 smash “Cruise” is poised for similar success. “Get Your Shine On” has sold over 300,000 copies to date and is already a Top 20 hit. Both are featured on their Republic Nashville debut album, “Here’s To The Good Times,” which earned the highest debut album sales of 2012 for a new Country artist.
