Sunny Sweeney

Country radio station employees all across the country have cast their votes on who they feel should represent country music during the 2012 New Faces show to be held during next year's Country Radio Seminar (CRS) in Nashville. The votes have been tallied, and the finalists are Sunny Sweeney, David Nail, Hunter Hayes, the Eli Young Band and Thompson Square, who will all take the stage in February

Approximately 364 days of the year, Sunny Sweeney opts for nutritious, low-fat meal options. When she's touring, she sticks to foods like Greek yogurt, fish and fresh fruit. But that's 364 days a year. Thanksgiving is an entirely different ball game. According to her record label, Republic Nashville, Sweeney is looking forward to her favorite holiday dish, a dish that has made its way through gene

The Country Radio Broadcasters (CRB) have announced the artists to be considered for the lineup at the 2012 New Faces showcase taking place during next year's Country Radio Seminar in Nashville. The Eli Young Band, Sunny Sweeney, David Nail, Edens Edge, Craig Campbell, Hunter Hayes, Thompson Square and James Wesley are the eight artists who have spent the past year making noise on the charts, whic

Sunny Sweeney's new single, 'Drink Myself Single,' no longer applies to her personal life. The singer-songwriter is officially off the market! Sweeney and her longtime boyfriend, Jeff Hellmer, said "I do" on Friday, Nov. 11.

The lyrics to Sunny Sweeney's new single, 'Drink Myself Single,' tell the story of a woman who's ready to know what it's like to live life like her man, who stays out til all hours of the night. Sweeney co-wrote the tune with Monty Holmes and the song is the third single from her newly-released album, 'Concrete.'

The third single from Sunny Sweeney's 'Concrete' album breaks a streak of sad, self-pitying tributes to heartbreak. 'Drink Myself Single' is still about a relationship gone bad, but this time the East Texas singer is getting even. Fortunately, she plots revenge as well as she sings about remorse and despair.

Sunny Sweeney is living the good life right now. Besides the release of her sophomore album, 'Concrete,' last week, the singer from Texas is criss-crossing America opening shows for Brad Paisley on his H2O II: Wetter and Wilder Tour. The tour also features the likes of Blake Shelton and Jerrod Niemann, all of whom Sweeney has bonded with over the past several weeks.

Sunny Sweeney is anything but shy. The songs on her new album 'Concrete' bare her most private thoughts and moments, but the Texan almost never flinches as she plays them onstage. That's "almost" never.

Sunny Sweeney's latest album may largely fly under the radar. The blond Texan hasn't had a big radio hit yet, nor has she found a plum opening slot on a major tour this summer. Don't let either of these blanks on her resume cast a shadow upon the quality of the 10 songs on 'Concrete,' however. It's the mature and focused project one usually gets from an artist on his or her third or fourth effort.

Over the weekend, WGNA held its annual Countryfest concert in Albany, N.Y. This year's event, headlined by Miranda Lambert, brought in thousands of country fans. The full lineup included Joanna Smith, Sunny Sweeney, Brett Eldredge, John Michael Montgomery and Randy Houser, followed by Lambert's closing set.
