Where abes once discovered, deveoped and marketed acts, the current mode often requires that the performers deveop both their craft and an audience before they find their way onto a record-company roster. Thus, the seven artists that wi aunch their first abum or EP for a prominent imprint during the first six months of 2019 have invariaby created some kind of history on their own. That incudes buiding a n a u d i e n c e through heavy touring and/or producing EPs for sef-reease. LANGSTON JENKINS The creative cass roing out between January and June shows just how much the genre s marketing formua and content is changing. EMI Nashvie artist Jon Langston is reeasing tracks one at a time rather than in a coectabe bunde. Broken Bow artist BLANCO unites the country/hip-hop trend in a next-eve bend. And three of the entries incorporate foreign roots: Twinnie, a singer/actor from the United Kingdom; Canadian singer/songwriter Aaron Goodvin; and King Caaway, a six-man ensembe with two European-bred members. Here s a ook at the seven acts breaking out during the first haf of 2019 with the equivaent of their first abum or EP for a prominent country abe: BLANCO (Broken Bow) Speechess may be a Dan + Shay hit, but it s aso a word that BBR Music Group executive vp Jon Loba u s e s t o describe Banco Brown, whose authentic hybrid sound is sefdefined as traier trap part TWINNIE traier park, part trap music. After spitting his chidhood between the urban hood and summers in the country, he is abe to seamessy knit mutipe genres together, bending Tracy Lawrence, T-Pain, Dixieand Deight and The Beach Boys in a series of yet-to-be-reeased tracks. Rea artists don t just break rues; sometimes they rewrite them. LANGSTON: KRISTEN BARLOWE POWER UP FOR DUSTIN S SIXTH #1 SINGLE!

2 August 6, 2016 biboard.com BILLBOARD COUNTRY UPDATE JANUARY 7, 2019 PAGE 2 OF 23 Aaron Goodvin (Reviver) The winner of the Canadian Country Music Association s songwriter of the year award, Goodvin paced songs with Luke Bryan, Jon Pardi and Coe Swinde on his way to a dea with Warner Music Canada. His voice has a grainy tinge, appied to a mix of hooky uptempo songs and reveaing baads. Raised in Aberta, 420 kiometers from the High Vaey boys, he spent much of 2018 in Nashvie working on his U.S. debut, which wi be reeased as part of a goba roout on Feb. 8. Sam Grow (Average Joes) With three sef-reeased EPs under his bet, the Maryand-bred Grow is an experienced music maker with his first fu country abum due in the spring. Having payed a reported 200 ive dates in 2018, he s a hard-working band eader with a smoky voca tone who counts Evis Presey, Sam Cooke and Wiie Neson among his infuences. Sti, there s a sight Daughtry undercurrent to his first Average Joes singe, History Repeats Itsef, due in ate January. Lauren Jenkins (Big Machine) Two years after issuing her inaugura EP, Jenkins obs her first abum, No Saint, into the market on March 15 with a voice that empoys mutipe personaities. Her ower resonance is haunting and spooky, whie her upper register is biting and forcefu. Quiety introduced on a 2014 Nashvie abum paying tribute to Mötey Crüe, her taents extend beyond the microphone: She wrote, co-produced and starred in a forthcoming short fim, Running Out of Road. King Caaway (Broken Bow) As country music becomes increasingy goba, King Caaway is a natura evoution, a six-piece band with roots that extend from Minnesota to Deaware to Scotand to Gibratar. Its debut EP, rife with thick harmonies, poppy energy and ikey a cover of Stephen Stis Love the One You re With, has a target date of Jan. 25. Produced by Ross Copperman (Dierks Bentey, Brett Edredge), the band s drummer has some key country heritage: Chris Deaton s father is CMA Awards producer Robert Deaton. Jon Langston (EMI) Langston is roing out tracks in a Sam Hunt fashion: There s no officia major-abe EP, though he has aready digitay reeased five songs and expects to have perhaps three more in circuation by June. The previousy sef-reeased artist has toured aggressivey in the Southeast, buiding an audience before manager Kerri Edwards KP Entertainment (Bryan, Swinde) picked him up. Langston s deivery combines swagger and immediacy over a production that s ceary geared for modern country radio. Twinnie (BMG) The photo on her website has a distinct Shania Twain vibe, as does the pop-eaning hooks in her sometimesdanceabe tunes, particuary the oping Type of Gir. Haiing from York in northeast Engand (you just know someone is going to abe her the Duchess of York ), Twinnie Lee Moore earned attention in the U.K. soap Hoyoaks and payed the Country Music Association s C2C Festiva in Her first U.S. EP is expected Feb. 1.

18 BILLBOARD COUNTRY UPDATE JANUARY 7, 2019 PAGE 18 OF 23 MAKIN TRACKS TOM ROLAND Russe Dickerson Finds A Big, Wide Sound In New Singe Every Litte Thing Russe Dickerson s sophomore singe, Bue Tacoma, focused on a very specific territory, as the song foowed a coupe on a drive up the Caifornia coast. Its successor, Every Litte Thing, goes a over the map. Lyricay, it detais a woman with competing consumption interests: She s a fan of coffee s amperage and of red wine s chi effect. Musicay, it reies on an amost whimsica whiste at the outset, but bows into a big, fat sonic bast in the chorus. And styisticay, it incorporates a country-fed banjo jange aongside a funk-inspired bass and at-rock guitar soo. In reaity, it s a simpe song not a whoe ot of yrics and big effects from a sma number of instruments but it defty ceebrates the compexities that emerge in any human reationship. This song is 100 percent me, says Dickerson. It s my sound, my energy, my vibe, bragging on my wife yricay, upbeat, uptempo, a itte synth in there, poppy-ness on top of the super-country banjo and countryeaning yrics. That s down the midde for me because I ove country music, I ove pop music, I ove rap music I ove it a, and it s a kind of formed together in this song. Whie it s 100 percent Dickerson, adding to the song s compexity is that it s aso 100 percent a refection of the songwriting triumvirate at the heart of his eary success. Parker Weing and Dickerson s producer, Casey Brown, co-wrote each of Dickerson s first three singes with him and, oddy DICKERSON enough, in the order of their reease. Yours was fashioned at Brown s home in January 2014, whie Bue Tacoma and Every Litte Thing came in the months afterward, the atter one emerging at Brown s office in the suburban-corporate atmosphere of Provident Music Group in Frankin, Tenn. He had a itte room that had a bunch of windows in it, notes Weing. It was a sma room, maybe ike 10 foot by 10 foot, and he had a piano and his desk in there, so it was pretty sma. But we wrote a ot of songs off of Russ s first record in that room. They had a snap-and-cap percussion oop running to estabish some sort of tempo when they penned the third singe, and Dickerson casuay whisted a bouncy ick that caught Brown s attention. He asked Dickerson to repeat it, and the snippet morphed into Every Litte Thing. He doubed the hook with a banjo and a side for texture. I payed the exact same thing over those whistes, and that became the intro hook, says Dickerson. It s the same as the verse meody, so that s a huge motif in that song. Whie Dickerson and Brown cobbed those ayers together, Weing toyed with words that might work with that foundationa meody. My baby, she s Aabama/A Dixieand Deight used a reference to a Country Music Ha of Fame band and one of its signature songs, connecting it with the easy ike Sunday morning hook from a Commodores song to set up some of the woman s buit-in contradictions. We get crazy on a Saturday night, says Dickerson, referencing another yric, but easy ike Sunday morning is such a perfect inverse to that description of her. The three songwriters and their spouses were a friends during their tenure at Nashvie s Bemont University, and pieces of the yric pointed to quirks in each of their reationships: A Seatte and Sonoma coupet payed up the hot coffee/red wine dichotomy in Kaiey Dickerson s tastes, whie Nataie Brown s verba gaffes ed to another image. There s a ine in the first verse When she forgets the punchine, it sti gets me every time which is inspired by Casey s wife, who aways says common phrases wrong, observes Weing. If it s ike a popuar idiom or phrase that peope woud say, she aways gets it wrong, and it s aways hiarious. It didn t have a tite when they started, but Dickerson used a semi-stuttered effect to ead them to its branded hook. I was singing, Every itte, every itte, and that s a I had, he remembers. I was just kind of mumbing the rest, and we kind of coectivey were ike, I ove every itte thing about her ove. As soon as we discovered that, we just kind of dove into a these specific things. Whie the whiste/banjo/side combination created a ivey sonic intro, the chorus got its own unique sound with one big supporting note the bass, guitars and a synth a stacked together that swes and recedes into and out of the beat to create a powerhouse effect. Dickerson added a nimbe, repetitive guitar soo that provides yet another earworm to a string of hooks, and they pued together a dynamic demo that day with Dickerson singing ead, not even bothering to cean up the pop on the P sound in that punchine yric. Every time we re comping a voca, me and Casey, I just isten for personaity, says Dickerson. I don t isten for perfection or even perfect notes or perfect pitch. I want anything that gives me a itte smirk or gives me a itte chi or any personaity that comes through. I take that over a perfect voca any day. At east haf the voca from that demo remained when they cut the fina version, estimates Dickerson, and that incudes that P pop. He simpified the guitar soo a hair, paring a repetitive tripet pickup down to just one or two notes. And somewhere aong the way, Weing s pubisher at the time 3 Ring Circus founder-songwriter Jeffrey Steee ( He Yeah, Raise Em Up ) convinced them to separate the Aabama/Commodore references and side a new yric into the first verse. Every Litte Thing aways seemed ike it had potentia as a singe, and after Yours and Bue Tacoma both ascended to No. 1 on Country Airpay, crowd reaction cemented those projections. When Bue Tacoma was out this past year, I got to go out with Russ a bunch on the road to write for the next record, says Weing. Watching peope respond to Every Litte Thing amost as strongy as they had been to Yours and Bue Tacoma made it reay cear that was going to be the next singe. Tripe Tigers reeased it to country radio via PayMPE on Nov. 14, 2018, and it s currenty No. 47 in its fifth charted week on the Country Airpay ist dated Jan. 12. In the end, the song s simpe appreciation for a compex woman and its abiity to disti a battery of infuences into a coherent core seems to make a direct connection. The pieces in Every Litte Thing may come from a over the map, but they fit together in a unified way as Dickerson pays at the edges of country s commercia box. I want to push the boundaries, he says. I m not afraid to do that.
