Can’t say I saw this collaboration coming, but man is it a heater. By this point, there’s a good chance you’ve probably heard Tyler Nance’s viral hit “Keeps Me Sane.” The insanely catchy and hard-driving tune released back in July by the Lamar, Missouri native quickly gained traction on social media, and then it spread like wildfire. Now, in less than six months, the tune has amassed over 75 million plays across streaming platforms, and there are no signs of that momentum slowing down. As good as the original version of “Keeps Me Sane” is, though, Nance brought in some outside talent to feature on a new version of the track, and it’s even better than the original. Released today, and accompanied by an awesome music video, the latest version features another fast-rising country act in The Castellows, who contribute vocals and killer harmonies. In a press release circulated by the team at Niche Media, Nance provided some context behind the decision to release another version, and touches on how great of an experience it was working with The Castellows to bring this one to life. “It was always a dream of mine to collaborate with another artist on a song. The way the original version took off blew my mind and I’m so excited that it paved the way for me to work with The Castellows. I was able to join them in the studio and we all filmed the official music video together. They’re super easygoing and kind – the entire process working with them has been something I’ll always remember. I’m just really grateful.” Check out the new music video for Tyler Nance’s hit “Keeps Me Sane” featuring The Castellows here: What a song. And there is plenty more where that came from. At 22 years old, Tyler Nance is just getting started, and his growing catalog of original music is already full of great music. Here are a couple of my favorites everyone needs to check out. “Shovel” “Whiskey Me or the Pain”  Rising to fame through social media in somewhat similar fashion to Nance, The Castellows are a spectacular trio of sisters who set the internet ablaze a few years back by posting covers on TikTok and Instagram. They have been around long enough to prove they are the real deal, though, and far from some sort of fleeting viral sensation. Here are a couple of recent originals they have released. “Sheltered” “Heartland” And if you like what you’ve heard from Tyler Nance and The Castellows, then you’re in luck. Both are touring heavily in the new year, with Nance supporting Ian Munsick for quite a few shows and The Castellows doing the same for Luke Combs across the pond in Europe. Between these high profile opening gigs, though, Nance and The Castellows are each scheduled to take the stage at several festivals and a handful of headlining gigs as well.

We all have to get our start somewhere. Just like many other musicians, Ella Langley has always dreamed of having a career in music. The Alabama native has been chasing this dream since a young age, releasing her first songs at 18. Langley has often said that making music is the only job she’s ever wanted, and it’s all she’s done in her career, solidifying to fans that this is her destiny. Ahead of the CMA Awards, Langley joked that she’s “addicted to the road.” “I literally am addicted to being on the road and playing shows. I’ve been on the roadmap every weekend since I was 18 years old, minus COVID. I’m obsessed with it.” Which is a funny statement, but it is a good thing. It rings true because the touring life is not for everyone. It’s a lot of long nights, time away from loved ones, and it takes a toll on your body. However, Langley knew this was the life she wanted, and she has made her dreams come true. While the “Choosin’ Texas” singer might be singing in front of sold-out crowds every night now, her music career started off like many others, singing for a room filled with just a few bodies. It’s always fun to hear how artists got into performing, whether it was Lainey Wilson, who was a Hannah Montana impersonator for years, or even just singing down at the local theater for a few people who stumbled in; everyone had to get on the stage somehow. However, in Ella Langley’s case, her starting stage looked a little different than others…and in fact, she dealt with a pretty tough crowd in the early days of her singing career. “I kind of say my first concert ever was for cows. Yeah, that’s where I got my start, I guess.” Langley said during a conversation with Chase Sapphire Reserve. “We live with a big pasture behind our house. I would steal my brother’s iPod, climb to the top of the barn, and just perform… When ‘moo’ sounds very close to ‘boo’, it toughens a girl up.” HA. Hey… everyone’s got to get some performance experience somehow, right? While I am sure a field full of “boo” sounding “moos” did get Langley to grow some tough skin, at least this audience couldn’t throw tomatoes at her if they didn’t like the performance. The cows must not have given her too much childhood trauma because Langley purchased a home in her hometown of Hope Hull, Alabama, earlier this year. Langley shared with Katie Neal from Audacy’s Katie & Company that this was her first major purchase since blowing up, and that being close to her home and family always keeps her grounded. “It just brings me back to who I am at the root of me every time I go back there. And when it comes to writing songs and being in that state of mind, I think it’s important to have a place like that.” While Langley admitted that she will always have a residence in Tennessee, too, given that she’s only a short car drive from her home state, she feels it’s essential to keep some roots there as well. “I think I’ll always have to live in Tennessee to some extent in my life, but being from Alabama, it’s so close. It’s under four hours to get there.” Home is where the cows you sang to reside. Ella Langley has come a long way from those days, but she will never forget the c(r)ow(d) that gave her the confidence to sing in front of people. Fire up Langley’s latest number one single while you’re here, “Choosin’ Texas.” The post “Moo Sounds Very Close To ‘Boo’, It Toughens A Girl Up” – Ella Langley Recalls Performing For A Pasture Of Cows As A Young Girl first appeared on Whiskey Riff.

A Marine veteran said he felt "betrayed" after U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents detained his wife, Chanidaphon Sopimpa of Thailand, during a green card meeting last month. Sopimpa's attorney Derek Poulsen told Newsweek that she overstayed her visa but had no other criminal record. Her arrest comes as a growing number of immigrants have been detained during green card meetings in San Diego over the past month. Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin told Newsweek that applying for a green card "does not confer legal status."

A suspect who allegedly planted pipe bombs blocks from the U.S. Capitol on January 5, 2021, is now in federal custody after a nearly five-year investigation, law enforcement sources told Fox News Digital on Thursday.

The FBI has made an arrest in its nearly five-year-old investigation into who placed pipe bombs outside the offices of the Democratic and Republican national committees the evening before Jan. 6, 2021.
