Easton tweeted yesterday that he was playing the new single at his show last night, but alas, nothing has popped up on YouTube just yet, and the only thing I could find on Twitter was "enjoyed the new song!" No name or anything. Sad panda.

Looks like Capitol/EMI is going to be launching Jon Pardi's debut single soon, likely at CRS, based off the "Are you ready to 'PARDI' at CRS??" ad in tonight's issue of Country Aircheck Weekly. For anyone who was unaware, Music Row announced back in July that EMI had signed Pardi. Here's the article: EMI Signs Jon PardiEMI Records Nashville has signed singer/songwriter Jon Pardi to its roster. Pardi is already hard at work writing and recording his debut album. He is planning to release his debut single early next year. The northern California native has been playing guitar since he was eight years old. At 12 he began writing songs, and by age 14 Pardi had his first band. (L-R): Standing: Managers Dan Anderson of Red Light Management, and Charlie Walker of C3; Autumn House, Capitol/EMI Records Nashville VP A&R. Seated: Mike Dungan, Capitol/EMI Records Nashville President and CEO; Jon Pardi; and Tom Becci, Capitol/EMI Records Nashville COO Source: Music Row

Premiering a single at CRS? That reminds me of Bradley Gaskin. Whatever happened to him?

^He kinda got caught up in the Sony shuffle when Columbia basically closed down. Well, it's still there, but doesn't really have a radio team anymore, so pretty much all the artists are on Arista, BNA, or RCA now. Plus, I think they had higher hopes for "Mr. Bartender" and it stalled in the low 30's on the chart. Bradley is still under Sony's Columbia imprint, along with Joanna Smith and Jordyn Shellhart, but all the artists that were hitmakers for Columbia got moved to RCA (Miranda, Pistol Annies, Josh Thompson) and RCA also signed Love & Theft.
There's also Kristin Kelly who got signed to RCA then moved to Arista. Adam Brand and Brent Anderson both had minor top 50 hits with their debut singles for Arista. RCA has yet to launch Bush Hawg, and The Lunabelles (now a trio) are just kinda sitting there on BNA. And Sony signed The Henningsens, too, so we'll see where they wind up.
Not sure how they go forward with Bradley and some of the other newer artists. Some will probably get dropped and new artists will take their place. Not everyone makes it :(

last night at the Rascal Flatts Thaw Out tour show - Sara Evans told the crowd before singing it that "Anywhere" is going to be the next single from the Stronger album and will be coming out in April. Seems kind of far off to me but I am stoked for the song to get a chance !

Seems kind of far off to me but I am stoked for the song to get a chance ! Thank you! I am so frickin' glad they're going with Anywhere. They should've put that out second and she wouldn't have had an underperforming single. This is a strong song though, so it should hopefully regain her lost momentum with no problem.

It's going to have the same issues climbing the charts as her previous single.
They just need to get much better material for a new album. I want her to succeed, but she won't if she tries to release anything else from this album.

Meeting adjourned. Picked new single today. Thanks for all your input. I feel good about this one...
* Let's hope he didn't pick "Nobody Feelin' No Pain''. (I feel good about this one)

^I don't think he's throwing a hint there. If they honestly picked that song, it would crush all his momentum.
I full expect "Alone With You" to hit #1, and next week it'll go Gold as well. But if he wants to keep stringing up the hits, "Nobody Feelin' No Pain" is NOT the answer. And I really don't want "Anywhere With You", either...it's just too 'blah' for me. I could live with it though, I guess. But, as ya'll know, I'm pulling for "The One That Got Away". ;) Hopefully he 'feels good' because he co-wrote that one.

If there was a hint there, I thought it was "this one," as in the ONE that got away. If it's Feelin' No Pain, I might disown Jake.

Sorry for the double post, but Billy Currington tweeted earlier today to say "would be nice to hear 'Until You' on the radio. Hint, hint." I don't remember seeing anything about his next single, so wasn't sure what to make of it.

^ Interesting. This is his first album era to go deeper than three singles, and his fourth single wasn't that successful, so I would never have guessed he'd put out a fifth single. It doesn't seem like the logical choice to me, and I'm not sure that Until You would do all that well now, even though a lot of his fans seem to love it and think it should've been a single a long time ago.

WYCD in Detroit has a "new single" from Bradley Gaskin on their website: "Diamonds Make Babies." (Yes, the same one that can be found on the latest Dierks album.) Haven't seen any info elsewhere, but thought it was worth noting.

^That's...odd. I guess it was a song that Dierks didn't co-write, but still. It's on his just-released album, so I don't know why Bradley's team would want to release it as a single, considering the Dierks studio version was out there first.

Same as with Joe Nichols and Craig Morgan with "This Ole Boy" joe had it out first but Craig released it as a single.

^No, Craig's version came out as a single back in June. His album came out later than Joe's did, but the studio version by Joe of course wasn't heard until his album dropped in November, several months after Craig's song hit radio last summer.

Joe Nichols had recorded it for his new album before Craig decided to release it as a single though. It just took him longer to get his album out than it took for Craig to put it out to radio. This really isn't that weird. A long time ago artists recorded a lot of the same songs and there was nothing of it. Like Jeannie C. Riley's big hit Harper Valley PTA was covered by virtually every current female country artist at the time, including Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, Norma Jean, Bobbi Martin, Lynn Anderson, Jeannie Seely, and Dottie West.

Ms. Riley's version took the biggest jump in the history of the Hot 100 (84-7) when I was in HS in 1968, and would have been the #1 top 40 single of the year if it hadn't been for 'Hey Jude'.
I heard Bobbi Martin's version when I visited SLC that year, but I had no idea that all of those other ladies had recorded it.
I'm inclined to think that Phil's label isn't going to give up on this single anytime soon; I like it a lot, and Phil's one of my very favorite artists

I love Harper Valley PTA. Its one of my favorite old-time country songs. Such a classic.
And I believe the original and most well-known version by Jeannie C. Riley is the best. I love Dolly, but her version wasn't quite as memorable for me. I also didn't care much for Loretta's either, and I haven't heard the others (I'm just aware of their existence).

That wasn't my point, though. My point is that the public heard Craig's version first and was much more familiar with it and there aren't that many people out there who even got Joe's album. In this case, Dierks' version of DMB isn't going to be a single, but he's a much bigger name than Bradley Gaskin is, and once again, the public heard Dierks' version first...and he's been performing the song for a long time now. So I just think it's odd that Bradley's team would want to release a song that was just put out on Dierks' album. This really isn't that weird. A long time ago artists... A bit contradictory, isn't that? lol. I'm not saying it's really weird but yes, I do think it is a bit odd. Because it IS something that doesn't happen much nowadays and it's been like that for many years. Plus, the song is one of the only songs I skip on Dierks' album...certainly Bradley's camp could've found something else to put out? Something better, that wasn't just put out on an album by a much bigger name. If they go through with this and Bradley's version goes out as a single, I highly doubt it does anything.

Something better, that wasn't just put out on an album by a much bigger name. If they go through with this and Bradley's version goes out as a single, I highly doubt it does anything. Dierks stopped actually performing DMB during the winter. It's possible - and I have no idea of knowing if this happened, obviously - that Bradley's label approached the Dierks camp regarding the song and Dierks' camp conceded the song. One thing I find intriguing regarding this situation is not that Dierks had the song "first" or anything like that. I'm actually more interested in the fact that "Home" was originally entitled "Diamonds" and I think the intent was for DMB to be the lead off single roughly this time last year when they were gearing up for the release. Since "Home" has come out, it's been documented in various articles that Dierks approached Mike Dungan to re-record the album then-known as "Diamonds" because it was too far removed from Up on the Ridge and Dierks wasn't happy with the instrumentation from the original recording. They went back to the studio (as "Am I the Only One" was climbing the charts), scrapped a bunch of songs (at least 4 were cut from the original album) and re-recorded the rest. AITOO is the only song intact from the original album. So it's possible that while the re-recording was going on that Bradley's people approached Dierks' people regarding the song. Yes, it's now a fairly known song of Dierks', but I don't think that would hinder how it might do for Bradley. I know a *lot* of people who love DMB and it was highly regarded in a number of the critical reviews of "Home" so it's certainly possible that it might really 'break' Bradley. However, I still haven't seen anything that says it's 100% a single, so this might all be a moot point. I just found it interesting more than anything.

Oh, I don't mean to suggest it would do bad for Bradley because Dierks recorded it first. I'm just saying that I don't see Bradley breaking through with that song, even if some people do like it. That's just my opinion, and I could certainly be wrong, but I just don't see it as a strong enough song to really catch on and give Bradley his "break".

I don't know - I might be biased because of the Dierks factor, but I think if DMB had been Bradley's first single (and I LOVED "Mr. Bartender") he might find himself slightly more established. To me, DMB is one of those songs that Brad Paisley could have recorded. It has that novelty feel but isn't quite a "Red Solo Cup." It's definitely polarizing (as we're illustrating! lol) but if given the chance, it might be a surprise hit.
As an aside, every time I post "DMB" I think Dave Matthews Band.
ALSO, Billy Currington keeps tweeting about "Until You" and definitely referred to it as his new single.

So I just think it's odd that Bradley's team would want to release a song that was just put out on Dierks' album. I see your points, and they are valid. That said, I'm part of the public, and as a strictly-radio fan of Dierks Bentley (and not even that a lot of the times, considering I hated Home for instance...), I've never heard DMB. Unless I go out of my way to listen to it, I would only hear it if its a single. Granted, with YouTube and stuff nowadays its not too difficult (for me) to find a song and listen to it without buying the album or the song outright, but there's a lot of people out there who listen to country music who don't have Internet and unless they own Home, they won't be like "What gives Bradley? This is Dierks' song!" So, its only really his fans who went to his concerts who will care, or diehard fans who bought the album. And this may be a situation like Lee Brice's with Kenny Chesney's album where he decided to release it for himself since KC didn't. Dierks may have no intention to release it as a single, and the only way we'd know that if he made a public statement about that, but chances are if he said anything we wouldn't hear it. I'm sure BNA isn't thinking that they are beating Dierks to the punch or pulling one over on the fans or anything like that. carriekins: Interesting! I didn't know why they waited so long to release his new album, and I had been puzzled over that when they made the choice. But it all makes sense now. So thanks for shedding that light!

^Yeah, I just mean that Dierks' version is more heard because he's played it live before, is a bigger name than Bradley BY FAR, and his album opened with close to 60k copies sold, whereas I think Craig's recent album opened with 12k or something like that and Joe Nichols' album did even worse. And then Bradley is even less of a name (at this point) than both Joe and Craig.
With Lee and "Seven Days", he was a co-writer on it, so it was pretty easy for him to put that song on his album...because it really is his. Dierks didn't have a hand in writing DMB and I seriously don't think he ever planned on releasing it as a single, especially after they went back in and changed up the Home album big time. So Dierks is probably fine if Bradley wanted to release it as a single. The only thing I was saying that was odd about the whole thing is that it was only just released on Dierks' album...maybe Bradley wanted that song in particular for some reason, or maybe the writers pitched it to him as well. I do think he could've come up with a better song but again, that's just my opinion. Or maybe if he just wanted any ol' Dierks song, he could've reached back into Dierks' catalog and found an unreleased album track...chances are there's a bunch of them better than DMB. I just don't like that song, really...it's easily my least favorite on Dierks' album. And I really like the album, so I'm glad they he went back in and changed it up and didn't name it Diamonds. Maybe some of the songs that got taken off were good as well, but several tracks on the finished product are excellent and they likely wouldn't have been on there if Dierks hadn't changed things up.
