Elle King and Miranda Lambert’s team-up is one we didn’t know we wanted, but we’ll be damned if it isn’t exactly what we needed. It’s poppy and a little bit country and a lot of fun.

Artist: BRELAND
Hometown: Burlington, NJ
Genre: Country
Related: Willie Jones, Niko Moon, Blanco Brown
Song: Cross Country
Notes: BRELAND is making a name for himself, earning fans and streams and love – and Cross Country is the next step in his introduction to listeners. The autobiographical song gives us a look at the life that brought the New Jersey native to us. And, if there’s one takeaway for everyone – it’s this, “I tried to fit in, but didn’t, I’m different ya I know. No the houses I stayed in were great but they never felt like home. So I’m going cross country I won’t stop running til I find where I belong”. Keep an eye on BRELAND. Trust us!

Artist: Command Sisters
Hometown: Toronto, ON via Alberta
Genre: Alternative
Related Artists: JJ Wilde, Beach Moms, ARI,
Song: Rain On My Parade
Notes: Sarah Command called Rain On My Parade “the most personal song she’s ever been a part of writing.” It’s a new sound for the sisters and gives us another taste of what we may be able to expect as they continue their journey. The vocals are front and centre, carrying the song, but the guitars and rhythm section can’t be overlooked, bringing the whole thing together in the background and giving us the complete picture. We’re in!

Song: Had A Good Weekend
Notes: Emerging Canadian country artist Shantaia is back at it again with Had A Good Weekend – and we are here for it. This is the kind of good time song that you can share with your friends, that will take you back to a memory or have you making plans for a good time. Shantaia has fun with it, she sounds great, and we should all be ready to hear a lot more from her. Be ready!
