The lineup for the CRS 2017 New Faces of Country Music concert has been announced, setting the tone for what are likely to be the biggest breakout stars in country music in the next year.
Drake White proves himself to be one of country music's most dynamic young vocalists with "Makin' Me Look Again," an aching love song from his Spark album.
The nominees for Album of the Year in the 2016 Taste of Country Fan Choice Awards are an interesting mix of young and veteran artists, working in a variety of commercial and more cutting-edge aspects of the format to encompass everything that's great about country music right now.
Any interview that begins with a prayer for its success probably won't result in a smooth interaction, and that stood true when radio host Nick Kessler sat down to talk with rising country star Drake White.
Drake White's debut album is a long, long time coming. Three singles and two record label deals led to Spark, and yeah there were some frustrating days and nights. His punching bag knows all about it.
If Drake White's Spark album could walk and talk it'd be the most popular kid in school. Twelve feel-good tracks make up the Alabama-raised singer's debut. There's room for smiles and hurt, depth and frivolity. You'll laugh, love and feel better about yourself after an hour spent.
It's a hot summer day in Nashville, and Drake White is ready to ignite a Spark. The singer sits in a leather chair behind a funky Nashville bed and breakfast one month before his appropriately-titled debut drops. Sitting next to him, it's easy to feel like you're home. His vibe is similar to that of a crackling campfire.
Drake White recently celebrated his anniversary with his wife, so he's no stranger to the challenges of touring while being married. Luckily, Eric Church and Zac Brown have been teaching him a thing or two.
