Sony Music Nashville Announces Carlton Anderson Signing To Arista Nashville

By on May 18, 2018 in In The Press

Sony Music Nashville has announced the signing of artist and songwriter Carlton Anderson to Arista Nashville.

Anderson is spending time with the Sony Music Nashville team as he prepares to launch his debut single soon. He deftly balances traditional sounds and contemporary themes and was signed as a songwriter at Warner Chappell Music, where he has written with some of the most sought-after songwriters in Nashville.

Anderson grew up in Cypress, Texas, a town northwest of Houston where sports dominated daily conversation and Friday night, but Anderson focused on the other Texas pastime: Music.

Anderson’s musical awakening started with Willie Nelson, who he refers to as “his drug” and quickly advanced to George Strait and a long line of musical mavericks. Styles varied, but the common denominator was that even though they were born in Texas their music transcended borders.

Anderson started working in the oil fields at 16 – two years before it was legal – and worked at a grocery store after school to put away enough money to buy a guitar and small PA so he could play the honky tonks and dancehalls around his hometown after graduation. But the goal was always Nashville.

After three tries he cobbled enough money and the necessary co-sign from his grandparents to attend Nashville’s Belmont University. He moved to Music City and immediately started looking for ways to pay the bills. He dropped off his bag and headed downtown to find a gig. He parked on Fourth Avenue across from the Swingin’ Doors Saloon and heard the band playing “In Color.” He walked in, asked to play a few songs, and the manager offered him a job. He went on to play there five more years.

Anderson was the first to graduate college in his family, which had a firmly grounded “go to work or go to war” mentality, but he learned the ropes through hard work, practice, paying his dues in Texas, and playing for tourists and bachelorette parties in Nashville. He focused on “connecting” with his audience, no matter how distracted or inebriated they were. It wasn’t long before more than tourists were taking notice.

Sony Music Nashville includes is three country label operations – Arista Nashville, Columbia Nashville, and RCA Nashville – and Provident Music Group, one of the world’s leading Christian Music Companies. Sony Music Nashville is a division of Sony Music Entertainment.

Two-time GRAMMY® award-winning duo for KING & COUNTRY released their poignant new single entitled “joy.” today, which debuted simultaneously with the track’s official music video, premiering on Apple Music. The song’s message is revealed quite clearly in not only the lyrics, but in its accompanying music video. “joy.” is the debut single from their highly-anticipated forthcoming third studio album, set to release later this year. Listen to the track HERE

Watch the video exclusively on Apple Music HERE.

for KING & COUNTRY is comprised of Australian brothers Joel and Luke Smallbone. Reflecting on the video, Joel explains, “We came up with the concept to shoot the video in a mock television studio as a fun metaphor to represent the need to work through the noise – to remind us that joy can always be found in any circumstance. We hope that the idea behind the song (and video) will place a spotlight on the truth, that we can actively and deliberately – moment by moment and day by day – search for and choose “joy.”

Luke Smallbone added, “We’re not talking about happiness, we’re talking about joy, and I think there’s something very, very different about those two words and how important it is for us to not just let joy fly by us, but to actively choose it. When you wake up in the morning, are you going to be joyful? I think that’s a decision we all get to make.”

The music video includes a cameo appearance by Emmy-nominated actress Candace Cameron Bure as a nightly news anchor who communicates the important message that “while our circumstances haven’t changed, our perspective can.”

 

for KING & COUNTRY sat down with Billboard to discuss their journey to ‘joy.” Read their in depth conversation in “Breaking News” HERE

The Tennessean proclaims, “The lyrics to ‘joy.’ are set to an infectious, swelling melody that compels listeners to physically respond.” Read the full feature HERE

Multi-PLATINUM singer/songwriter Kip Moore has kicked off the year with an international bang, wrapping the final of two sold-out stints in Canada last night in Winnipeg, CA (5/17), following a stacked last few months that has seen Moore play to unrelenting crowds across the world. Building a global audience from the ground up, the beginning of 2018 has also seen Moore undertake the first of two capacity-house headlining runs in Canada, as well as a highly-anticipated return to Europe, with Moore “gathering more fans and selling more albums” (Billboard,) and critics declaring Moore is “without a doubt a headliner” (Building Our Own Nashville). Ahead of his second headlining stint in Canada this week, which saw Moore play to six additional full houses, he also recently wrapped a five-show, sold-out run across Australia to thunderous applause.

Kip Moore recently released the “equal parts powerful, heartwarming and tear-jerking” (Entertainment Tonight) new music video for his new single “Last Shot.” The track is the second taken from his revered third studio album SLOWHEART and follows his fourth No. One hit “More Girls Like You.” “SLOWHEART,” is continuing to garner praise by critics across the country as Moore “blends the passion and connection for which he’s known with a new self-awareness that will speak to both commercial and underground audiences” (USA Today) as well as wrapping 2017 on multiple “Best Of” lists including Entertainment Weekly, Rolling Stone, UpRoxx, Bobby Bones Show, Taste Of Country, Sounds Like Nashville, The Boot, PopMatters and Whiskey Riff.

New Artist Abi Releases Debut Single

By on May 18, 2018 in In The Press

Twenty year old country music newcomer Abi releases her debut single today, the infectious up-tempo
“A Day Without,” co-written by the recently deceased Nashville songwriter
Andrew Dorff [Blake Shelton, Kenny Chesney], Jimmy Robbins and Lucie Silvas. “A Day Without,”
a song about loss, strikes close to home for the Nashville-by-way of Midland, Texas-based songstress, who recently lost her father, with whom she shared a unique bond,

“’A Day Without’ brings on a lot of different emotions for me. The sheer thought of losing someone is absolutely terrifying, as is the deep love you might have for a person with who you might feel
like you cannot go on a day without them,” says Abi. “I think that my father’s passing gave me a new perspective on life, and enabled me to channel much deeper emotions into my craft.”

Inspired by everything from the marvelous pop expanse of The Beatles and Shania Twain to the “storytelling” of Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson, Abi crafted her first song in third grade. She has since
developed into a powerhouse vocalist and songwriter, with an impressive resume under her belt. In 2014, Abi joined
Jesse McCartney’s North American tour and 2015 saw Kelly Clarkson handpick Abi to open her massive summer headline run, while she hit the road alongside
Pentatonix a year later. In 2017, her single “Matches” independently caught fire; striking the sweet spot between simmering country soul, twanging guitars and a fierce hook – “Light me up ‘cause baby we’re matches” – CMT fanned the flames an early
champion.

“I think that growing up in Texas, moving to LA, then to Nashville has dramatically helped me to embrace and draw inspiration from all musical styles,” shares Abi, who credits her parents for encouraging
her to pursue her passion. Further, the untimely death of her father opened Abi up to a much deeper exploration of her vulnerability, through her songs.

“A Day Without” is out now:
