Critic’s Pick

One of country music's biggest hitmakers of the 2000s returns with a new song this week, but he's got competition for the top spot on this Top 5 list.

Nail says he recently re-discovered a song that brought him back to the rush of being a young, touring artist with dreams.

Bookending this week's Top New Country Songs are an icon and a fascinating newcomer who toys with the genre.

Don't worry about skimming through the dozens of new country songs released this week.

Dierks Bentley and friends, Zach Top and Tyler Childers all make the list.

The No. 1 song on this list scorches everything you thought you thought you knew about the artist.

Lyrically, this is the far more interesting of the two songs.

Shaboozey's new country radio single is "Highway," a heartbreaker that's not afraid to twist the knife.
