8 BILLBOARD COUNTRY UPDATE JANUARY 14, 2019 PAGE 8 OF 18 NASHVILLE & NATIONAL TOM ROLAND BMI hosted a No. 1 party to ceebrate Jason Adean s Drowns the Whiskey on Jan. 8 at Nashvie s Cambria Hote. From eft: Songwriter Josh Thompson, producer Michae Knox, Adean and songwriters Brandon Kinney and Jeff Middeton. INJURED GARTH FAN COMPENSATED A Kentucky woman who neary ost an eye in a freak accident at a Garth Brooks concert is counting her bessings after receiving a $65,000 baoon payment. Jean Ann Crenshaw thought she had an idea seat when she and four friends drove to Nashvie for a Dec. 9, 2017, concert at Bridgestone Arena, the first show in the fina city on Brooks three-year tour. But a panned baoonand-confetti drop honoring songwriter Mitch Rose (who penned Brooks No. 1 Country Airpay singe Ask Me How I Know ) went awry. When the baoons faied to drop, a worker used a meta poe to pry the rigging oose, but dropped the shaft into the audience in the process. Crenshaw was ooking up, attempting to coect one of the baoons, but never saw the poe unti it hit her beow the eye, requiring stitches and surgery. Iden Entertainment, the baoon company, took responsibiity for the mishap. (In a fan video posted on YouTube, the poe can briefy be seen in the right-hand portion of the crowd just after the 4:05 mark.) Crenshaw s nose was broken, scar tissue bocked her tear ducts, and she sti fees occasiona shooting pain from nerve damage near the eye. Her face remained bruised and swoen for severa months, and her husband received nasty gares from strangers who, presumaby, thought he had beaten her. Iden s insurance company, State Farm, agreed to a $65,000 settement, covering $25,000 in medica fees and $40,000 for additiona damages. The empoyee who dropped the poe was shaken by the incident, according to Iden GM/vp R.J.

13 BILLBOARD COUNTRY UPDATE JANUARY 14, 2019 PAGE 13 OF 18 MAKIN TRACKS TOM ROLAND Kane Brown Gets 2019 Off To A Good Start With A Nod To His 2018 Wedding Amid a of the hoiday buste at the end of ast year, Kane Brown and his team had an extra ayer of activity to address. As the first week of December drew to a cose, they had set Homesick a sweet midtempo baad that aready had a miitary-themed wecomehome video in circuation as a first singe for Brown even did an interview or two to make it officia. By Dec. 10, Good As You bostered by a video that incorporates scenes from Brown s Oct. 12 wedding to Kateyn Jae took the sot, and Homesick was sheved for ikey future reease. Good As You just fet more January, reasons Brown. It s not summer yet, but you re waiting for it to get warm, ike coser to March, and once that warmth starts to come around, it s just a happy song, and I want peope to have a smie on their face. Homesick co-writer Matthew McGinn may have been disappointed with the move, but it was great news for Good As You co-writers Shy Carter and Wi Weathery. And, perhaps, a wash for Tayor Phiips and Brock Berryhi, who co-wrote both songs. But even those two were midy shocked at the change in singe, in part because it came without warning. My stomach dropped, says Phiips, noting that his mother actuay spotted the switch onine. I ooked on his Facebook, and that was BROWN the first time I saw it. By the grace of God, I had co-written both of them. It didn t devastate me too much. It just kind of caught me off guard. It might we have surprised isteners a hair, too, since Good As You is a sight departure. Brown s rich, deeper tones have become a trademark in his swift ascent to stardom, but this song the second track on new abum Experiment reaches into his basement ony for a note or two at a time. The meat of the meody is pitched in a much higher and more vunerabe range than he typicay mines. With this record, I wanted something that sounded different, and Good As You is one of those songs that s outside the box for me, he says. It s a different tone of my voice and everything, and that s what I wanted to start 2019 with: something that doesn t sound ike anything that I ve reeased yet. Good As You came together in a furry once they had the basic core, though it took hours to find the starting point. Brown took Phiips, Berryhi and Weathery with him for a weekend tour run that started at Riverfront Park in Peoria, I., on June 16. Minutes after the bus eft Nashvie, Brown messaged Carter and encouraged him to swoop over from St. Louis and pitch in on the writing session. They tried severa other musica ideas first, and none of them reay jeed. The guys were, beieves Phiips, trying too hard to write a wedding song. Adding to the pressure, he knew that whatever they created woud need to satisfy the bride, too. Kateyn is a hard critic, says Phiips. I ve earned that. If she oves it, then he s going to ove it. I don t fee ike I write songs for Kane Brown. I fee ike I write songs for Kane and Kateyn Brown. As the afternoon turned into eary evening, they sti had nothing of substance. Finay, Carter and Brown retreated to the back of the bus, and Carter found a eisurey groove on the mandoin that matches his personaity. He just has this vibe and energy to him that s reay specia, notes Berryhi. He s very chi. When Carter repayed that initia thread for the fu group, Berryhi recreated it on a Stratocaster, fiing in the chord structure and emphasizing its Memphis sou fee. Weathery captured that on a aptop, adding in some sappy percussive effects on the downbeat. Then the words came pouring out in two batches: iquid, conversationa verses that contrast with more stringent, on-the-beat chorus rhythms. I fee ike we wrote a verse to one song, and we wrote a different chorus to a different song, and we had to make them work together, says Phiips. They were a itte bit off. So were some of the words. Gir, you re more than just the surface compiments the woman s depth in a way that s unconventiona, maybe even grammaticay incorrect, but sti gets the job done. I didn t know what it meant, but it doesn t sound wrong, notes Brown. And the hook I just wanna be good as you woud ikey be as good as you if the writers were concerned about their grades in Engish cass. They tried to do it correcty but didn t fee it worked. The as woud have thrown the syncopation of that meody off a itte bit, says Phiips. Sti woud have worked, but it woud have fet a itte more cuttered. I don t know. I fet ike it hit. Likewise, the song s overa message comes through, though if the premise is taken iteray, I just wanna be good as you seems more appropriate to say to a mentor or roe mode than to someone in an equa partnership. That was a discussion that came up, recas Berryhi. But with the three of us I know that are married out of the peope who wrote this song, we a woud agree that we re not as good as our wives. There s a bigger message hidden in that. I can t say that s wrong. They finished a rough demo quicky whie Brown payed the show that night, and back on the bus, Brown took a quick video of the guys singing aong with it. He was so enamored that he shared it on socia media a itte before 1 a.m. Producer Dann Huff (Keith Urban, Brantey Gibert) kept the spirit of that demo intact, making ony subte changes in the fina recording. He sowed the tempo a hair and deayed drummer Aaron Stering s fu arriva unti the second verse. Huff used Berryhi s introductory notes from the demo s guitar soo as a buiding bock before changing up the back haf. And he added some echo to the voca production, though the buk of it got removed. He was using this deay, so every time I woud say, Good as you, it woud say, Good as you again, remembers Brown. It made it fee a itte more pop than what it aready sounds, and Kateyn is the one that pointed that out. I usuay aways go with what she says. Once Good As You repaced Homesick as the singe, RCA reeased it to country radio via PayMPE on Dec. 17. It debuted at No. 55 on the Country Airpay chart dated Jan. 12, 2019 (it made a quick spash at No. 17 on Hot Country Songs even before it became a singe). It s currenty at No. 37 on Country Airpay, with Homesick very much in the mix as a possibe ater singe. When I hear that song, there s something that just puts a smie on my face, and I just hope that for other peope as we, says Brown. It s that thing guys want to te their girs and they don t reay know how to do it, and hopefuy, if they hear that song, they can be ike, Hey, here s what I fee about you. JOSEPH LLANES
