But it’s his soul-bearing, heart pounding disposition that makes him more than just an entertainer for the masses. Not afraid to be vulnerable, Mullins takes his audience on a deep journey with him, constantly seeking truth and humility. The Pennsylvania native obsessed over music as an adolescent and pursued it seriously during his college years in Chattanooga. A few years later, he made the bold move to Nashville, surrounding himself with other creatives to better perfect his craft. But his music and marriage was tested when his wife Whitney fell and suffered crippling physical and mental setbacks as a result. Through the dark, they relied on their faith and commitment to each other, which in turn, inspired his newly released single, “Better Man.” Penned solely by Jon, the heart wrenching ballad brings a whole new meaning to the classic vows, “for better or for worse.” It’s no wonder that this highly anticipated single is already being hailed as “his best song to date”.  It’s also no wonder that his recent stint on NBC’s The Voice gave Kelly Clarkson “chills.” With an intuitive nature and introspective mind, Jon Mullins shatters the glass ceiling of expectations in a smoke and mirrors industry. In the process, he ignites a spark that will burn for a long time to come.                         01:05:00The Chris Sandy ShownoJon MullinsThe Chris & Sandy Show with Jon Mullinsb1857fcc-5ec5-463d-a60a-715b5ca343081228fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/09/22/the-chris-sandy-show-with-bri-bagwellCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/09/22/the-chris-sandy-show-with-bri-bagwell/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/09/22/the-chris-sandy-show-with-bri-bagwellTue, 22 Sep 2020 19:30:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Bri BagwellBri Bagwell is a force to be reckoned with.

Chris Moreno is a Nashville recording artist, who in just a short period of time has been making waves as an up and coming artist to watch. Known for having an extremely loyal fan base which started in Boston and is quickly expanding to the rest of the world through relentless touring and an engaged online presence, he performs both acoustic and with his full band, and clocked in over 150 shows in 2019 alone. He was nominated for Best Country Artist two years in a row by the New England & Boston Music Awards, as well as best songwriter, and best song (Before You).  Chris's latest single "Where I've Been", released in April 2020, was featured on one of Spotify's officially curated playlists and the song has received high praise from press outlets all over the world. His music has been streamed over a half million times and he has over 10,000 monthly listeners on Spotify.  Chris's honest sound and sincere delivery connects with fans on a personal level and its core, Moreno’s music is a genuine reflection of his real life experiences and down-to-earth personality. As one reviewer put it, his songs “draw in the listener as if a deep secret or universal truth is about to be revealed.”  Moreno’s music mixes elements of a modern country sound with a noticeable Pop/Rock edge, and he brazenly wears the alternative rock influences of the 90’s and 2000’s on his sleeve. The result is a unique sound that feels both fresh and familiar at the same time. Chris continues to tour and put out a steady stream of music and has worked with Nashville producers Jonathan Roye (Kelsea Ballerini) and Justin Wantz. 00:58:00The Chris Sandy ShownoChris MorenoThe Chris & Sandy Show with Chris Morenoe4a212ef-ed1e-4bb6-a56f-98ad4145059f12014fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/09/11/the-chris-sandy-show-with-deana-carterCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/09/11/the-chris-sandy-show-with-deana-carter/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/09/11/the-chris-sandy-show-with-deana-carterFri, 11 Sep 2020 19:30:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Deana CarterCome join us for a great conversation with Deana Carter on The Chris & Sandy Show at 330 PM EST.

Jessie's heritage spans across four generations of commercial fishermen, and she spent much of her childhood aboard the hand-built family boat; searching for Dungeness crab and albacore tuna, and then selling their catch at the market and in their family restaurant. Hard work runs in her blood. “From an early stage, I was able to support my dream of pursuing music with the money I earned working as a baiter on our fishing boat or selling our fresh catch at the Farmer’s Market,” Jessie remembers. “But I always knew that music was the end-game. It has always been my number one passion.” It’s doubtful, however, that Jessie knew that entering a Battle of the Bands contest, through which she won an opening slot on Gretchen’s Portland tour date, would literally change her entire trajectory. Upon hearing her sing, Gretchen invited her onto her tour bus and urged Jessie to begin the journey that every young country singer-songwriter must embark upon — she moved to Nashville.  Jessie immersed herself fully into writing, teaming with some of Nashville's best, and spent countless hours in the studio working on her sound. Discovering the true art of songwriting under the watchful eye of Gretchen and her multi-talented friends and collaborators, Jessie realized the true depth of what she wanted to say. “These new songs have helped me find my voice and who I am, both in the writing room and in the studio. 00:59:00The Chris Sandy ShownoJessie GThe Chris & Sandy Show with Jessie G05819ec9-0c5c-43c6-b2ea-79f71efae02212010fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/09/02/the-chris-sandy-show-with-julia-coleCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/09/02/the-chris-sandy-show-with-julia-cole/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/09/02/the-chris-sandy-show-with-julia-coleWed, 02 Sep 2020 19:30:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Julia ColeCome join us for a great conversation with Julia Cole at 330 PM EST / 230 CST on The Chris & Sandy Show.

As one of Nashville’s most established performers, Terry McBride has forged an impressive four-decade career in country music as an entertainer, songwriter and musician. Along the way he’s worked with legends like Brooks and Dunn and Delbert McClinton, written countless hit songs and participated in the country revolution in the ‘90s leading a hit-making band, yet he’s waited until now to emerge as a solo artist. His dynamic set list blends new material, familiar songs he’s written for others, and modern classics like “Sacred Ground,” the signature hit from his band McBride & the Ride. Growing up outside Austin, Texas, McBride always wanted to be in his father’s band, finally getting the coveted spot after auditioning once he graduated high school. The early ‘80s brought him to Austin where he secured a job as a bass player with Delbert McClinton. Eventually making his way to Nashville and forging a solid friendship with Ronnie Dunn, McBride is named as a co-writer on 13 of Brooks & Dunn’s singles, with an overall 25 cuts with the duo. This rich catalog includes the No. 1 smash, “Play Something Country,” as well as Brooks & Dunn’s two duets with Reba McEntire: “If You See Him/If You See Her” and “Cowgirls Don’t Cry.” He also placed songs with Garth Brooks, Easton Corbin, Josh Gracin, Cole Swindell, Gretchen Wilson and many others. In addition, McBride and Chris Stapleton co-wrote “Gonna Come Back as a Country Song” for Alan Jackson. After nearly 20 years away from the spotlight, McBride has spent the last few years returning to center stage. Inspired by the honky-tonks and dance halls of his youth, he released an EP in 2017 titled Hotels & Highways EP and just wrapped up a new album Rebels & Angels 00:50:00The Chris Sandy ShownoTerry McBrideThe Chris & Sandy Show with Terry McBride8b165fe1-6884-43f7-ba3b-b39d4b6feeba1204fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/28/the-chris-sandy-show-with-mollie-codayCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/28/the-chris-sandy-show-with-mollie-coday/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/28/the-chris-sandy-show-with-mollie-codayFri, 28 Aug 2020 19:30:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Mollie CodayCome join us for a great conversation with Mollie Coday at 330 PM EST on The Chris & Sandy Show. With deep roots in gospel and country music, Mollie Coday has naturally found her own voice in country music. Her talent driven family has been playing and performing professionally all over the world for generations. Her mother Dawn, who is an elementary school music teacher candidly states, “Mollie was determined to find music her own way. She wouldn’t let any of us teach her, including me [laughing].” Fueled by co-writes and dedication to heartfelt lyrics, Mollie has a passion for telling a story and relating to people through song. At the age of 14, Mollie began performing at venues around the DFW area and United States, including House of Blues Dallas, Globe Life Park and Disney California Adventure Park, to name a few. She placed as a semi-finalist in the nationwide competition NASH Next in 2016 and as a category winner at DFW Icon in 2015. She is currently preparing to release her first single on all platforms. 00:47:00The Chris Sandy ShownoMollie CodayThe Chris & Sandy Show with Mollie Codayc3aaa038-e763-4fb4-a047-7a8833aaf5161200fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/27/the-chris-sandy-show-with-cory-marksCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/27/the-chris-sandy-show-with-cory-marks/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/27/the-chris-sandy-show-with-cory-marksThu, 27 Aug 2020 19:30:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Cory MarksCome join us for a great conversation at 330 PM EST / 230 CST with Cory Marks on The Chris & Sandy Show. Mixing country music with the hard-hitting stomp of rock & roll, Cory Marks makes his debut with WHO I AM. Full of autobiographical storytelling, guitar-driven anthems, drinking songs, and breakup ballads, WHO I AM is rooted in the influence of Cory's hometown, where he grew up surrounded by the salt-of-the-earth residents of North Bay, Ontario. It was there where he began playing drums at ten years old. Whenever he wasn't banging along to songs by Deep Purple, Ozzy Osbourne, and Rush, he was listening to his parents' country records, developing a deep appreciation for outlaws like Waylon Jennings and Merle Haggard. Those two genres — classic country and amped-up rock — would eventually join forces in Marks' own music, earning him a string of gigs with heavyweights like Toby Keith and Brantley Gilbert along the way. 00:49:00The Chris Sandy ShownoThe Chris & Sandy Show with Cory Marksf8e94236-50e9-442c-9279-6f4ca3ede2a21198fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/26/the-chris-sandy-show-with-antonio-moraesCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/26/the-chris-sandy-show-with-antonio-moraes/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/26/the-chris-sandy-show-with-antonio-moraesWed, 26 Aug 2020 19:30:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Antonio MoraesCome join us for a great conversation with Antonio Moraes at 330 PM EST on The Chris & Sandy Show Although born in Brazil, Antonio Moraes grew up in Texas on the family ranch. He enjoyed the country life with his father who was competing as a professional bull rider on the PBR circuit. Antonio grew up listening to Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard and soon developed a passion for country music. At the age of six, he began learning to play guitar, piano and drums. In 2008, Antonio’s father, Adriano, retired from bull riding as the only 3-time PBR world champion and the family moved back to Brazil. Leaving Texas only fueled Antonio’s love for country music. With four Brazilian produced singles under his belt, Antonio moved to Nashville in 2018 to continue chasing his dream of becoming a country music artist. 00:52:00The Chris Sandy ShownoAntonio MoraesThe Chris & Sandy Show with Antonio Moraes393bec74-e8dc-4cd7-b349-63b02024890f1196fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/24/the-chris-sandy-show-with-stephanie-ryannCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/24/the-chris-sandy-show-with-stephanie-ryann/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/24/the-chris-sandy-show-with-stephanie-ryannMon, 24 Aug 2020 20:00:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Stephanie RyannCome join us for a great conversation with Stephanie Ryann at 4 PM EST on The Chris & Sandy Show.

Hailing from California's Central Valley, married duo Joe & Martina have been performing together for the better part of a decade, continuously honing their craft and developing into one of Country music’s most recognized rising independent artists.

The line between gossip and psychotherapy is sometimes mighty thin. There Goes the Neighborhood, the debut album by Jenny Tolman, casts the clever newcomer – hailed by Sound Opinions as a “storyteller par excellence” – as a member of a high-class, white trash welcoming committee, an observant woman who sees other people on her own fictitious block through a humorous, surface-scraping veneer. Tolman conveys her songs with “the sass of Nikki Lane mixed with the clever wordplay of Brandy Clark,” according to Rolling Stone, making a scintillating statement about the complexities of modern femininity by exploring her own womanhood through a make-believe town. Music provides the ideal vehicle for Tolman to examine a sometimes-painful world with a blast of sardonic humor as she continues to distance herself from very difficult teen years and fully embrace her bold, brazen adult viewpoint. “We live in a society where you’re told not to feel things,” she says. “But that’s literally what you survive off of: your feelings and your instincts.” 00:58:00The Chris Sandy ShownoJenny TolmanThe Chris & Sandy Show with Jenny Tolmandfe2db12-74cd-456c-8469-f7c7226644541179fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/10/the-chris-sandy-show-with-rudy-gatlin-from-the-gatlin-brothersCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/10/the-chris-sandy-show-with-rudy-gatlin-from-the-gatlin-brothers/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/10/the-chris-sandy-show-with-rudy-gatlin-from-the-gatlin-brothersMon, 10 Aug 2020 19:30:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Rudy Gatlin from The Gatlin BrothersCome join us for a great conversation at 330 PM EST with Rudy Gatlin from The Gatlin Brothers on The Chris & Sandy Show.

It’s very simple, she is a force of nature.” – Cody Dickinson (North Mississippi Allstars) Gritty soul and blues singer, Gina Sicilia, always stays one step ahead in her songwriting and music. The Newtown, Pennsylvania-native, who now calls Nashville home, has never been one to sit still musically. On her new album, Love Me Madly, Sicilia slides fervently and warmly into a wide range of soul music, from pop-inflected, hooky tunes, like “Love Me Madly”, to horn-drenched heart-stoppers. Produced by Cody Dickinson of the North Mississippi Allstars, with Luther Dickinson performing guitar on tracks including “Misery With You”, Gina Sicilia’s ninth studio album showcases her ability to get inside a song and inhabit it, so that the lyrics and music flow effortlessly from her body, heart, and soul. Songwriting and singing are second nature to Sicilia.  She was singing and performing at local talent shows when she was 6, and started writing songs when she was 12. “I got into blues and soul when I was a young teenager,” she says, “and by the time I was 18 or 19, I was singing in a blues band. In my early years in college, you could find me at the weekly blues jams at Warmdaddy’s in Philadelphia.” 00:53:00The Chris Sandy ShownoGina SiciliaThe Chris & Sandy Show with Gina Siciliac9d91b6e-c1ea-4e8a-abe9-bd33a27a66261175fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/07/the-chris-sandy-show-with-trey-roseCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/07/the-chris-sandy-show-with-trey-rose/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/07/the-chris-sandy-show-with-trey-roseFri, 07 Aug 2020 19:30:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Trey RoseCome join us for a great conversation with Trey Rose today at 330 PM EST on The Chris & Sandy Show. With his versatile vocal range and ability to connect with an audience, Trey Rose has quickly become a sought-after live performer across the United States and a “must-have” on playlists across the globe. When it comes to vocalists and artistry, there is a difference between a performer and the artist who makes a connection with his audience. Rose is the latter. “Music is a universal language. Music can connect a room full of complete strangers within a matter of minutes. It doesn’t matter what everyone has going on in their lives, where they came from, or who they are. The right song can make someone forget about all that and just escape. My goal is to bring the audience to that better place; even if just for a moment.” Trey Rose is a force to be reckoned with; from the very first note, his soulful grit, combined with his southern rock and pop musical influences, captivates audiences young and old. Born in Hugo, Oklahoma, Trey was drawn to music as a youngster. “I remember hearing a Matchbox Twenty song on my way home from school and I immediately thought, ‘I want to do that!’ ”     It wasn’t the glitz and glam of performing on stage that attracted him; Trey became obsessed with the writing and the creative process, and he was motivated to move listeners with his music. Trey is currently in the studio putting the finishing touches on a series of tracks scheduled to rollout throughout the remainder of 2020. 01:04:00The Chris Sandy ShownoTrey RoseThe Chris & Sandy Show with Trey Rose1a99aafe-fdba-4b37-b11f-cc81583a019d1173fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/06/the-chris-sandy-show-with-frank-myersCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/06/the-chris-sandy-show-with-frank-myers/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/06/the-chris-sandy-show-with-frank-myersThu, 06 Aug 2020 19:30:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Frank MyersCome join us today at 330 PM EST for a great conversation with Frank Myers on The Chris & Sandy Show.

Steven Keene grew up in Brooklyn New York and got his start playing the folk clubs and cafes of the Greenwich Village scene in the late ’80s and early ’90s alongside contemporaries Beck, Susanne Vega, Shawn Colvin, and others. Heavily inspired by the songwriting of Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie and Leonard Cohen, he began performing his earliest material at The Speakeasy, the now-closed folk club that was a singer-songwriter staple in the ’90s. Keene played regularly at joints like Sun Mountain Cafe and the Chameleon, and for years would crisscross the streets of McDougal and Bleecker, playing well-known clubs including the Bottom Line, Lone Star Cafe, the Mercury Lounge, the Bitter End, Arlene’s Grocery, and the legendary CBGB’s. But for Keene, it was always about the music, and never about the fame. Maybe that’s why he surrounded himself with only the best players, focused only on the music, and became obsessed with honing his craft as he gigged his way from one smoke-filled Village club to the next. “Sometimes the perspective is from myself, and sometimes I’m writing a song through someone else’s eyes,” reflects Keene. “I’m not very big on insisting on explanations behind the songs I write, only because everybody’s got their own take on them, like a painting or any art form. I think less is more when it comes to talking about my own personal experience of a song.” 01:00:00The Chris Sandy ShownoSteven KeeneThe Chris & Sandy Show with Steven Keene15719ee5-48dc-437f-8ae3-866a1e9455a21168fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/03/the-chris-sandy-show-with-aaron-coleCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/03/the-chris-sandy-show-with-aaron-cole/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/03/the-chris-sandy-show-with-aaron-coleMon, 03 Aug 2020 19:30:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Aaron ColeCome join us for a great conversation with Aaron Cole today on The Chris & sandy Show at 330 PM EST! Christian rapper, singer, and songwriter Aaron Cole began nurturing his musical aspirations at a young age, releasing numerous independent projects throughout his childhood and adolescence, culminating in a 2017 label deal with Gotee Records when he was only 18. He entered the Christian charts with the TobyMac collaboration "Right on Time," and began releasing a steady stream of singles. Born in Bristol, Virginia on February 28, 1999, Cole's entry into the music business started when his father, an audio engineer and musician, wrote a rap song called "Jesus Is the Rock," which became the title of then four-year-old Cole's first album. Throughout his childhood and teenage years, he released a handful of other independent Christian rap projects like 2007's The Trinity and 2012's 4th Period. Following his 2016 EP, If I Can Be Honest, he was picked up by Gotee Records and earned his first chart success with the 2017 single "Right on Time," a collaboration with label founder TobyMac. "One More Day," the bright R&B-oriented single from his 2018 EP Virginia Boy, featured a greater focus on singing than rapping and he continued to mix both vocal styles into singles like "Mama Said" and "Patient with Me." ~ Timothy Monger 00:56:00The Chris Sandy ShownoAaron ColeThe Chris & Sandy Show with Aaron Cole4718abd1-72e5-4513-b63f-a1f981599bd21165fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/02/the-chris-sandy-show-with-elizabeth-lyonsCountry Musichttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/02/the-chris-sandy-show-with-elizabeth-lyons/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/newcountrymedia/2020/08/02/the-chris-sandy-show-with-elizabeth-lyonsSun, 02 Aug 2020 21:00:00 GMTThe Chris & Sandy Show with Elizabeth LyonsCome join us for a great conversation with  Elizabeth Lyons today at 5 PM EST on The Chris & Sandy Show Since a young age, ELIZABETH LYONS love for music, her high energy, and commitment to getting things done is contagious.
