Country Artist Interviews

Eric Church | Rob + Holly

It’s a big day for Riley Green, who is not only celebrating his 36th birthday, but the release of his third studio album, Don’t Mind If I Do.

“It feels fitting that this album is out on my birthday because this project feels very true to who I am, where I come from and what I’ve learned along the way,” Green shared of the project, available now. “I learned to play guitar to my granddaddy’s favorite Country songs from back in the day and this new album is a throwback to the era when I first became a fan.”

Don’t Mind If I Do delivers more of the Alabama-native’s signature sound fans have fallen in love with including featured songs like “Damn Good Day to Leave,” which is just one of two current singles Green has climbing the charts at Country radio.

“A break-up song that was fun I thought was a good idea,” Green told Audacy’s Rob + Holly of the track during an interview earlier this year at Faster Horses Festival. “I loved the Brad Paisley, ‘I’m Gonna Miss Her’ — I love that thought of, ‘it doesn’t sting as much when she leaves if the fish are bitin’ and I’m listening and you’ve got a cooler of beer,’ you know?”

“Obviously ‘You Look Like You Love Me,’ the song I have with Ella Langley is doing really well,” he said before sharing he didn’t initially plan on having another duet with her so soon, but it was meant to be. “She was on tour with me and I wanted a female voice on [this song]. I asked her to come by and sing on it, just to get somebody there, then I was going to figure out who I was going to get and she just crushed it,” he shared. “So, we may have another song together.”

Hear additional details about the album, Green’s athletic abilities, past Halloween costumes and more by checking out his entire interview with Audacy’s Rob + Holly above.

Riley Green | Friday Night Takeover

The Country music door is wide open these days with several cross-genre artists stepping through to immerse themselves in the family-like fanbase. In turn, established Country artists have had their own fun with cross-genre collabs and trying on new sounds, but if you ask JonPardi — there is a limit.

“You’re missin’ out if you’re not going to take advantage of all this influence coming in from everyone,” he said of welcoming new influences.” You’ve got HARDY screamin’ and playing out crazy amphitheaters, then you got Post Malone here — he actually cut a really great, pretty Country, Country record — so it’s just like everybody is kind of having fun and I feel like you’ve gotta experiment a little bit.”

He continued, “It’s fun, but you don’t wanna go too crazy… I’m not gonna do nothin crazy.”

Pardi shared traditional Country will always be at the root of his music as he recalled listening to the greats in the ‘80s alongside his grandmother. He loved it so much, in preschool his teacher shared he came to class each week claiming his name was a different Country artist.

“I was told I came to preschool with a different Country singer’s name every other week or so,” he shared. “One week I was Randy Travis one week I was Merle Haggard. I was George Strait one time.”

While childhood was all about Country for Pardi, he ventured out to some Pop/Punk music in his high school years, which he still enjoys today. While the Alternative sound isn’t something he plans to incorporate into his music, the lyrics and overall feel is something that he says helped him with songwriting.

“In high school I was really into Rock and Punk Rock… If we’re going to throw it out — I’d really love to meet Blink-182,” he shared. “I’ve pretty much X’d out [met] all the Country heroes, so I’m moving on.” He continued, “It was fun music, it was happy and it pumps you up. I took a lot of that kind of style of writing and energy to bring it to Country music.”

Some of that songwriting will be featured on Pardi’s forthcoming album, which is expected to be announced in the coming months. Fans got their first taste of what’s to come with the brand new single, “Friday Night Heartbreaker,” available now.

“We went a little more Rock ’N Roll, it’s still got fiddle and steel [guitar],” he said of the record. “There’s just a little more of Soul and Rock in this next record. Even in 'Friday Night Heartbreaker,' you kind of hear it.”

Jon Pardi | Friday Night Takeover

RascalFlatts is back and couldn’t be more excited to hit the road in 2025 with the recently announced Life Is A Highway Tour to reconnect with the fans, their music, and each other after a five year break as a band.

After being forced to cancel their originally scheduled farewell tour in 2020 due to the global pandemic Gary LeVox, Jay DeMarcus and Joe Don Rooney are making good on their promise for tour dates with one noticeable change — this tour is not labeled “farewell.”

“I feel like in a lot of ways, we have a greater appreciation for what we had,” said bassist, Jay DeMarcus. “I think we needed to go through some personal growth individually — go through some seasons in our lives and try some other things. I think it’s allowed all of us to get away, get fresh perspective and come back with a renewed energy and appreciation for what we have.”

Added frontman, Gary LeVox, “In 2020, who would’ve thought that something called COVID would start the whole entire world shutting down? That really put life in perspective and how fragile it is. Not just what we’ve been able to accomplish together… it just put everything in perspective.”

The 21-city trek will celebrate 25 years of music for the trio who racked up 17 Number One hits, over 23.4 million albums sold, 35 million digital downloads and countless awards. Joined by special guests Lauren Alaina and Chris Lane, the tour will include stops in Green Bay, Toledo, Huntsville, Fort Worth, Orlando and more.

“We’re anxious to put the show together and give the people something that they’re gonna be really pumped about,” said DeMarcus.

“It’s just been awesome to read the comments and see the love - the outpouring of love and enthusiasm,” said Rooney of announcing the tour this week. “They put us here, so we’re gonna go back out and celebrate with them. We love our fans — the Flattheads!”
