If there’s one thing we love, it’s a good Country Duo! Especially one composed of a male/female solo! Meet Trey and Jennifer of Smithfield! The two have been friends since they were 10 years old, so it’s safe to say their bond is unbreakable. What makes this duo unique is that they both take turns with lead vocals and they take on a wide range of songs. Their vocals blend harmoniously as they performed their latest single “When You’re Gone” inspired by one of the cowriter’s wife!

LE PROJECT CVR 3000x3000

Ballerini recently had a girl’s party to celebrate women in country music. Of course, Ell was in attendance along with Carly Pearce who also has a cut on The Project.

See the lyrics from “White Noise” below and pre-order The Project!

White Noise
(Kelsea Ballerini, Josh Kear, Ross Copperman)
Broken heart beating silence and breathing
That’s all I hear these days
Ceiling fan spinning rumors beginning
That’s all I hear these days
‘Cause your memory is louder than the static
My head on your heart was such a habit
Going crazy now that I don’t have it
I don’t have it
CHORUS
Another headache from a loud crowd Friday
Another lover throwing gravel in the driveway
Another love song driving down the highway
But it’s just white noise
It’s just white noise
Another wakeup to the TV on sunrise
Another breakup with the echo of your goodbye
But it’s just white noise
It’s just white noise
‘Cause I miss you boy
So it’s just white noise
Bartender last drink, taxi on South Street
That’s all I hear these days
Friends calling friends baby
All in love and crazy
That’s all I hear these days
‘Cause your memory is louder than the static
My head on your heart was such a habit
Going crazy now that I don’t have it
I don’t have it
REPEAT CHORUS
Anything other than your voice X3
But it’s just white noise
Anything other than your voice X3
But it’s just white noise

Thompson Square Is Determined To Get New Music to Fans! – See Their Announcement!

Leave a comment

Shawna and Keifer Thompson of Thompson Square, took to social media to clue fans into a big announcement that was coming later. However, twitter followers got a head’s up when they RTed an article mentioning they were parting ways with their record label.

Stoney Creek Records, a division of Broken Bow Records (home to Jason Aldean), has been the duo’s home since they first got a record deal back in 2010. The duo has two #1 singles and has racked up 7 award wins along with 2 GRAMMY nominations!

It’s been four years since the duo’s last album and since then fans have gotten a few singles, but are anxious for that third studio album! It has been just as frustrating for the duo as it has been for fans. Although, Stoney Creek has been a huge part of all their success, in the end sometimes a label can only take an artist so far.

It’s like ending a relationship on good terms, but knowing that it’s no longer beneficial for either party. Sometimes it takes that step to take control back over the vision and music. Without a label, Thompson Square will have more freedom to release music, an album and just do more of what feels good creatively. This is a good thing for fans eager to hear more music from the duo and a future album might just be around the corner.

In the meantime, the duo promises to stay very active on social media, where they have started “WinoWednesday” where they sing, hang out and drink wines while their fans tune in.

 

To our favorite duo, we can’t wait to see what you have in store, and we will always be in your corner.
