Kacey Musgraves released her new single, “Dry Spell”yesterday, and yes, it’s exactly what you think it means. In the song she pokes fun at the longest time of her life being single.
For example, her first verse has the line, “If you know what I mean, I’ve been sitting on the washing machine,” and the song ends with, quote, “nobody but the chickens are gettin’ laid.”
Kacey says, “It was a long time without any intimacy with anyone else, and I had always feared that before I experienced it, just having this notion that I needed someone to be happy, which I found to be completely untrue.”
“Dry Spell” is the first single from her upcoming album, “Middle of Nowhere”, which is due out May 1st. It includes features from Willie Nelson, Billy Strings, and Miranda Lambert. And yes, Kacey and Miranda have buried the hatchet. You can read more on that here.
Welcome to the second Friday in Mach y’all…as it’s March 13, 2026…and it may be Friday the 13th…but don’t let it scare from listening a lot of new country music this weekend.
Now be sure to do your part in visiting your neighbor liquor store to pair your favorite alcohol with your new favorite country music, because it’s how country music is supposed be enjoyed. Don’t let anyone judge you for it neither.
Here’s what we’ve found…
1.Gavin Adcock released his classic country compilation, “Counrtry Never Dies”, with the help of a lot of country artists. The 11 songs are more than worth the 39 minutes of your time. Theses covers are flawless.
2. Conner Smith dropped “Stories I’ve Never Told (Acoustic Tapes)”.
Miranda Lambert is just a normal person who ain’t afraid to show off the things she ain’t good at in life.
Cooking a pizza in a fire oven is one of those things Miranda ain’t good at too. Now I’m not judging her in anyway, because Lord knows I probably couldn’t cook that pizza any better. Cooking takes some special skills and a lot of practice to actually cook well.
Miranda posted some pictures and a video on her Instagram of her trying to cook a pizza and the caption said everything we need to know about how that went. She captioned it saying, “cooking ain’t for the faint of heart y’all!!!”
Luckily they had wine and pizza on the table…so it looks like it eventually worked out well. Wine usually fixes a lot of problems in life.
Jelly Roll was officially inducted as a member of the Grand Ole Opry Tuesday night, and wore a special piece of jewelry around his neck.
His girl Lainey Wilson was there to officially induct him into the Opry and he was wearing Johnny Cash’s cross necklace too. Johnny’s son, John Carter Cash, met him backstage to let him wear it for his big night.
Jelly Roll said, “he said it was his father’s favorite piece of jewelry that his father owned. He thinks that he would want me to wear this during the induction…I live my entire life somewhere between two middle fingers and the grace of Jesus Christ.
And I learned that from Johnny Cash, you know what I mean?…I wear black because of Johnny Cash.”
If you’re going to get into a fight at a concert…this song seems very fitting to fight to.
There was a massive girl fight that broke out at Zach Bryan’s recent show in St. Louis. It was during his controversial song, “Bad News”, which fans found to be pretty funny. One thing is for certain. Music and alcohol gets people’s emotions running high.
One person in the comments said, “this song could not be any more perfect.” Another one said, “what a great song to fight to.”

A fisherman was charged with a felony after getting caught stuffing his bass with three different weights. Organizers of the North Texas fishing tournament were suspicious that the fish weighed over 10 pounds, so they used a metal detector.
After using that metal detector…they found the weights. And since the prize money was more than $10,000, the fisherman was charged with a third-degree felony.
Lainey Wilson will in fact be making her feature film debut this Friday on March 13, 2026 in the movie called “Reminders of Him”.
