Once again, Keith Anderson CD gets delayed
Thursday, May 15, 2008 – This time, the delay for Keith Anderson's second CD is two months. After having most recently been slated for a June 24 release and prior to that May 20, Anderson's "C'mon!" now is slated to drop Aug. 6.
The single, "I Still Miss You," is "active, healthy, Top 25 and climbing and still a comparatively young record in terms of how long it takes these days for a single to work its way up the charts," said SonyBMG spokesperson Chris Melancon.
Anderson's debut came out in 2004 and had hits including "Pickin' Wildflowers."

C'mon!
When Keith Anderson arrived on the country music scene three years ago, his debut - "Three Chord Country and American Rock N' Roll" - fully described his style. The Oklahoma native hasn't changed a bit staying with the combination of hard-rocking country and sentimental ballads, but he's chosen a title that captures the energy of the album with "C' Mon!"
The title track picks up where the last album left off, but sometimes it's hard to figure out where »»»

Three Chord Country and American Rock & Roll
Keith Anderson is apparently another one of those musicians that consider it in vogue to emphasize their well trodden small town Southern roots as if that were a name check to entering the country musician's union. Anderson does just that on the title track, co-written with John Rich of Big & Rich fame, one of several they penned together. Anderson's bent really is southern rock meets Lonestar as he gives indications of wanting to be Mr. Everything as he sings of "crankin' everything from Brooks & »»»

Editorial: A fine night for Taylor Swift –
Taylor Swift's showing at the Country Music Association awards Wednesday night was no surprise. In some respects, it was invigorating to see someone who was not male and not around umpteen years like some of her male counterparts take home the biggest prize of the night, entertainer of the year. »»»

Radney Foster told fans that he came home from the University of the South one weekend early in his college career and told his parents in the wee hours of the morning that he wanted to quit college and head to Nashville to pursue a music career. His parents agreed...fortunately.

Concert Review: Neko Case overcomes obstacles –
The opening of Neko Case's show was unusual to say the least. "I'm angry right now," said the red head. "We just had a big fight with the promoter. We're going to sing weird, but we're actually very happy to be here."
Making quite clear that she was not a happy camper, Case still channeled her musical energies... »»»

To say that Lyle Lovett has a great new album in "Natural Forces" is a newsflash akin to announcing that oxygen is now available for mass consumption at no charge. Lovett's musical quality is as automatic as a politician's promise and infinitely more trustworthy, which might lead one to believe that, at a certain level, the Texas singer/songwriter has become slightly jaded by the consistent accolades thrown his way. One would be very mistaken.... »»»

When "Mountain Soul" became a critical success, it wasn't long before fans began requesting a follow-up from Patty Loveless. "They were questioning last year when I was ever going to do another record such as the first 'Mountain Soul,'" Loveless says. "So, Saguaro Records came to me about doing another record with them, and we suggested doing one to coincide with the popularity of what the first one did."... »»»

Rosie Flores played in Screaming Sirens, back when cow-punk wasn't (yet) cool. She also helped turn Los Angeles, that underground roots rock town south of Bakersfield, into a flourishing alternative country music scene in the '80s. Her self-titled debut album was produced by Peter Anderson, who played guitar and produced some guy named Dwight Yoakam, and she even handled lead guitar work for Butch Hancock's band in 1994. She ain't done yet, though, as her new CD demonstrates.... »»»
