We got a chance to check out Australia’s own Joe Robinson, last week at MTSU. Guy gives a whole new meaning to the phrase musically inclined. At 20 years old the kid has become champion of Australia’s Got Talent, moved to America, signed to a label, and toured all over the world. The youtube sensation, best known for his crazy good guitar skills, is a raw talent and a true artist. Be sure to check him out!

Gloriana Does Nashville!
Gloriana is back in town and better than ever!!
The newly configured three some gave a whole new meaning to ‘less is more,’ last night, when they packed the house for their first Nashville showcase since CMAfest. Fresh off their fastest rising single, Kiss You Good Night, and in anticipation of their long awaited second record, the group played some hits, covered some classics, and introduced what is soon come. These comeback kids have got an awesome new poise, attitude and repertoire, that kept us on our feet and left the whole crowd asking… Cheyenne Who?
Grammy Party!
Our good friend, Zack invited us to watch the Grammy’s VIP style last night as the annual Grammy members Viewing Party, hosted and catered by the Hard Rock. Free food and good music. Not to shabby.

‘Storm Warning’ Hits the Hall of Fame.
We checked out the gorgeous, amazing, and thankfully legal Hunter Hayes at the Hall of Fame‘s free family day, this past Saturday. The room it’s self could have used a storm warning, it was wall to wall with toddlers, preteens and middle aged women galore, each singing every last word. Hunter is a Warner Nashville recording artists of whose debut single “Storm Warning” is currently sitting pretty in the top 20, and his bragging rights include but are not limited to opening up for Taylor Swift on the most recent leg of her Speak Now Tour and being the first artist play every instrument on every track on an album… ever. And he’s 19! We’ve seen Hunter twice before and we think he’s really extraordinary. He’s a true child prodigy. He was born for the stage, and he will be a super star. We just know it!

An Evening With Canadian Recording Arist Brett Kissel.
It’s sometimes easy for us to forget that there’s a whole world of country music outside of Nashville. Especially up north in Canada. But thanks to the amazing Mr. Louis O’Reilly, the head hancho at 306 Records, we’ve been pleasantly re-reminded. Friday night we got the ins at a small artist viewing party right outside of town.
The headliner was a young Canadian artitst by the name of Brett Kissel, who’s as sweet and sincere as the stuff he writes and sings. With a host of different influences, the 21 year old cowboy does everything from Jazon Mraz to George Strait to Ian Tyson, and then some. Brett’s been making his way between Edmonton, Ca and Music City USA, for the last year, establishing himself as true player in both scenes. He’s got a great career ahead of him and we can’t wait to see what’s in store!
How awesome is this?! Jamming with one of our favirote singer/songwriter’s Hannah Dasher
