Openly Gay Country Singer Chely Wright Releases New Dance Remix

Apr 6, 2011, 10:00am Music Is My King Size Bed
Openly Gay Country Singer Chely Wright Releases New Dance Remix Admittedly, I'm not the BIGGEST fan of country music but I have my moments. Yeah, I've dabbled, and I'm not ashamed. I will tell you though, that the quickest way to my heart is a good old fashioned dance remix of a country song. You hear me country artists?! Leann Rimes did it and had MUCHO success on the club charts. Hell, Leann even released a whole album of remixes! I understand that some artists don't want to stray too far outside of their comfort zones but I [...]

Strum This! Songs About Guitars

Jun 13, 2010, 10:59pm YuppiePunk | Adventures in Middlebrow
Strum This! Songs About Guitars The guitar and rock & roll go hand in hand - or least hand on fretboard. Even before Link Wray poked holes in the speakers of his amp to create distortion, guitars have been the foundation on which rock & rock was built. B.B King named his guitar Lucille, a name more familiar to his legion of admirers than the names of either of his wives - or even his bandmates. As well, most hardcore rock fans could tell you a few different guitar models. The Fender Strat and Gibson Les Paul are household names in the rock world. How [...]

Chely Wright - Lifted Off the Ground

Mar 23, 2010, 4:51pm Direct Current
Something interesting is happening with Chely Wright . Fifteen years after breaking out as a fresh, new face of Nashville, Wright could have continued down the mainstream country/pop road, singing mostly other writers' songs and playing the "radio-hit-or-die" game. But we knew change was afoot when Wright signed with Vanguard, home of numerous earworthy , eclectic performers (and DC faves ) such as The Watson Twins, Greg Laswell and Mindy Smith. Then we heard that Wright's self-penned new album [...]
