Kenny Chesney’s 21st studio album, “Silver Sands Marina”, will be released on September 25, 2026 via HEY NOW Records. Produced by Kenny himself and Buddy Cannon, the record will feature 12 tracks, including the lead single “Carry On”, which is available now.
The upcoming album will focus on positive vibes, lifelong memories, and getting rid of things that bring you down. Like politics. Politicians and politics are trash in general. Let’s be real.
Kenny (well his team) posted the news about his new album on his socials, “new album “Silver Sands Marina” out September 25th. Listen to the title track available now. This album was built with human emotions that make us feel alive. Cheers to New Music. KC
You can pre-save, pre-add and pre-order now here. This will make a great present for myself too. Considering my birthday is September 20th.
Ella Langley says she looks to God during times of struggle, and encourages fans to do the same. She’s also read the Bible almost every single day for the past year.
Ella said, “instead of trying to go to other things like I have before, either men or drugs or other feelings to try to make myself feel a certain way, I go to Him first.”
Last year Ella struggled with her mental health and didn’t know if she wanted to be here anymore. She says what helped pull her out of the darkness was realizing her purpose in life and share her testimony and songs with fans.
Her advice is to follow the “North Star” of God as she said, “if you just wake up and focus on that every day, you give 1% better than the day before, you’re going to get through it. And you’re gonna be back to loving life again, I promise you.”

John Denver’s“Take Me Home, Country Roads” has become the victory anthem for the U.S. Men’s National Team at the World Cup.
FIFA asked each country’s team to send in a list of potential songs to play after a win. The team came up with three: Neil Diamond’s“Sweet Caroline”, Bon Jovi’s“Livin’ on a Prayer”, and the John Denver classic. After the team’s win against Australia, “Take Me Home, Country Roads” was blasted through the speakers.
England claimed Neil Diamond, FIFA is using Bon Jovi for their second half hydration break, so that left John Denver to be the U.S.’s own.
In case you missed it, Bailey Zimmerman had criminal charges filed against him due to his drunken night he had in New Mexico on May 27, 2026.
He has now issued a statement through his attorney amid his arrest warrant. He did in fact apologize to the hotel where he allegedly caused more than $16,000 in damages. It’s the PR move that has to happen now.
The statement reads…
“To the Pueblo of Sandia and my fans:
I want to address the events surrounding my canceled show in New Mexico in May and the reports that have followed. First things first, I want to apologize to the Pueblo of Sandia and to everyone at Sandia Resort & Casino. I never meant for any of this to come across as disrespectful. I am deeply sorry for my actions that transpired.
I respect your community and the hospitality and appreciate the opportunity that was given to me to perform on Native Land. I take full accountability for everything that happened and I am sorry to anyone who feels hurt or disrespected.
To my fans who bought tickets and showed up expecting a performance, I am so sorry, you deserved better from me. I understand that being a musician comes with big responsibilities, both on and off stage, and I know that I fell short that day. I am reflecting on the disappointment and concern that I caused.
I am taking this legal matter seriously. I am committed to doing the work necessary to learn and grow. Thank you to my fans for holding me accountable and for understanding that I am human. I do not take your support for granted.”
The vile witch, Joy Behar, from The View has spoken. And I’m not surprised by her continued ignorance.
The leader of “No Shoes Nation” recently joined Bill Maher for an episode of his “Club Random” podcast, where they discussed Kenny’s reasoning for not bringing politics into his music. And Kenny made complete sense in what he said…
“I’ve just never felt like it was my place. There’s a certain ego that lives in there, a certain box inside your head and your soul that you have to check for some reason to think that you can make a difference. And I (just don’t know)…
I’ve never saw it to be my place, and use my stage or platform, no matter where I’m playing, to tell people how to think or how to vote. They hear that and get that everywhere else. On every device, on every network. They are there as an escape from all of that stuff.”
Perfectly reasonable, right? I mean Kenny obviously has fans on both sides of the aisle, and his brand has never been one that particularly aligned with either political party. So, I agree with his stance on not preaching who you have to vote for from his stage.
The Viewdecided to discuss Kenny’s recent comments on not talking politics, and while the majority of the panel seemed to respect and agree with his decision. Joy Behar, on the other hand, took issue with it and seems to believe that Kenny has an “obligation” to get political. She said…
“Bruce Springsteen walks the walk. He talks about politics, he’s a great talent. He can afford it.
I think that when you can afford you certainly should speak up. It’s an American obligation, in a way.”
Luckily some intelligence in the form Whoopi Goldberg pushed back on Joy’s assertion that Kenny has an obligation to speak on politics…because he doesn’t…
“It’s not for everybody. It’s not everybody’s ability. … Not everybody talks about politics. Not everybody wants to, and not everybody should.”
Considering how she’s literally one of the hottest things in country music. She might as well extend her tour.
Ella Langleyextended her “Dandelion” tour with 21 new dates. She’ll be joined by Kameron Marlowe, Gabriella Rose, Ernest, and Laci KayeBooth on select dates.
I’m well aware that Morgan Wallen is currently the biggest country artist on the planet in 2026…but this some real bullshit.
A re-sale pit ticket to Morgan’s “Still The Problem Tour” Baltimore stadium show that’s set for July 17th is currently listed for almost $120,000 fuckin’ dollars y’all. And no…that’s not a typo. Some asshole of a human being is literally selling their tickets for the price of $117,805.17 to be exact.
The sad part is some unsuspecting fan might even pay for that. I mean I hope someone is not really that dumb…but as a human being myself, I’ve seen some pretty stupid people overpay for something they thought they really needed. Please don’t be person that overpays for a concert ticket.
And people who charge that kind of money for a resale ticket belong in hell.
Lainey Wilsondanced to “Butterfly Kisses” by Jeff Carson for their father-daughter dance. It’s a pretty popular choice, but for Lainey, it held extra significance.
Having your father at your wedding is meaningful to any bride and groom, but it was extra special for Lainey considering how she almost lost her dad in 2022. Brian Wilson spent two months in the hospital that year with a fungal infection that took out the left side of his face, including his eye.
Lainey told Taste of Country , “they had to remove his eye and they had to remove some bones in his face. He had a stroke on top of all of that. He had nine surgeries in a month and a half. He’s not supposed to be here.”
She posted a video of her father-daughter dance from the wedding on her Instagram and captioned it saying , “I sang ‘Butterfly Kisses’ at my Kindergarten graduation so of course it had to be my father-daughter dance at the wedding.”
Bailey Zimmerman is facing multiple charges, including a felony, for allegedly trashing a hotel room in Albuquerque, New Mexico. There was a warrant issued for his arrest on Thursday.
He’s facing a misdemeanor for falsely obtaining services, and a fourth-degree felony for criminal damage to property that is over $1,000. The incident took place on May 27th, after he canceled his show at the Sandia Resort and Casino in Albuquerque at the last minute.
Bailey posted this heartfelt message on on his Instagram…
“Y’all know there’s nothing I love more than getting out on the road and playing these shows for you, so it’s so hard for me to have to say this, but I have to reschedule tonight’s (5/27) and Saturday’s (5/30) shows. I have not been feeling well and have tried to power through, but I’m not able to give you all the show you deserve.
I hate letting y’all down and was really looking forward to these shows, but I gotta take care of myself so I can get back out there stronger. We will be announcing the rescheduled dates as soon as possible, and all tickets will be honored for the new dates. Love y’all so much, and I appreciate the prayers and understanding — I’ll see you real soon.”
Now that heartfelt message that was posted on Instagram is considered to be bullshit according to this arrest warrant.
Housekeeping said Bailey’s room was a total disaster. Damages include a broken phone, damaged TV, multiple missing pieces of furniture, and a hole in the wall that amounted to more than $16,000. That also includes a $400 alcohol bill that he didn’t pay.
Finding a Father’s Day gift idea can be a lot harder than a Mother’s Day gift. But Dads…whatever you got…even if it was just a phone call, or nothing at all…is probably better than this.
A news report over the weekend weighed the “potential risks and rewards” of gifting DNA test kits for Father’s Day. A DNA test is not necessarily a paternity test…but if your dad isn’t expecting it, it does have Maury Povich-vibes.
The “potential rewards” are: It could seem like a “unique and fun gift idea” . . . one of those things someone might like, but wouldn’t buy for themselves. And “exploring family history” can be fun and inspiring.
But there are a lot of downsides, like uncovering secrets that are sad and unsettling, such as “misattributed paternity.” And “once they’re known…they cannot be unknown.” There are also legitimate concerns about data security.
So, should DNA kits be given as gifts? One expert says, “no”.
