Full dates and details can be found below..

On Friday whilst in Berlin, McNown released his brooding new track “Call Me If You Miss Me”, with its official performance video. “Call Me If You Miss Me” captures the bittersweet longing and search for closure that follows the end of a relationship. This new track continues the story of his stunning sophomore album Night Diving, released earlier this year via Fugitive Recordings x The Orchard x Columbia Records.  
 
“‘Call Me if You Miss Me’ is one of the first songs written in the creation of Night Diving and I’ve been so eager to give it to the fans” says McNown. “It comes as a promise that we’re not done, and more music will always be the Max McNown way”.

McNown recently made his TV debut on The Kelly Clarkson Show with a charming performance of his radio hit “Better Me For You (Brown Eyes).” Just one month before, host and singer-songwriter Kelly Clarkson covered his breakout GOLD single “A Lot More Free” on her TV show.

One of the “brightest newly minted stars to come out of Nashville in recent years” (GRAMMY.com), McNown has impressively sold out every stop of his debut headline tour after spending the past year opening for stars like Wynonna Judd, Wyatt Flores, Michael Marcagi, Sam Barber, 502s, Corey Kent, Trampled by Turtles, JOSEPH, and more. Fans can expect to hear his viral hit “A Lot More Free” and newer songs from NIGHT DIVING, a graceful fusion of folk and pop produced by Jamie Kenney (Colbie Caillat, Laci Kaye Booth).

McNown’s latest triumphs include being named a 2025 Amazon Music Artist to Watch and Billboard’s Country Rookie of the Month for November of last year following his feature as CMT’s Next Up Now artist alongside the release of Willfully Blind. The EP landed as the Oregon-born artist made his AmericanaFest debut, and as we saw another major resurgence of his breakout hit single “A Lot More Free.” Since the single’s release it has recently achieved RIAA Gold certification, earned him a top spot as #1 on Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart, peaked at #1 on the iTunes singles chart and #1 on the TikTok Breakthrough USA chart, climbed the Canadian Hot 100 chart, and was placed on Spotify’s Hot Country and Viral 50 global playlists.
 
ABOUT MAX McNOWN:
At 23, Max McNown has already been on a storied musical journey. Taking control of his future, overcoming personal challenges, and drawing inspiration from his brother who was bravely fighting cancer, McNown packed his bags and drove from remote Oregon to Southern California. From there, videos of him busking on a pier made an impact online and eventually grew into a legion of supporters on TikTok (now 2.2M+ followers). After attracting interest from major TV talent shows, McNown auditioned for one, before deciding it wasn't for him, and gracefully turned them down as he knew he needed to walk his own path.

C2C 2025 performer & Northern Ireland artiste Janet Devlin releases Back to My Senses

C2C 2025 performer & Northern Ireland artiste Janet Devlin releases Back to My Senses

































Northern Irish singer-songwriter Janet Devlin is making a vibrant return with her new single, Back To My Senses’ (preferred music platform; first released digitally on 15 Nov 2024) out on 25th February via OKGood Records. 

Fresh from back to back success at BBC Radio 2 (recent singles ‘Red Flag’ (released 4 Oct 2024; tagged country) and ‘Best Life’ landed coveted month-long positions on the BBC Radio 2 B List Playlist) her track ‘Back To My Senses’ serves as both a moment of honest self-reflection and a plea directed at her former lover, following the painful misstep of a breakup. Featured on her critically acclaimed album, ‘EMOTIONAL RODEO,’ this new single highlights her country-rock evolution and ability to transform personal struggles into uplifting, resonant music.

‘Back To My Senses’ reflects the profound impact of Devlin’s mental health on her love life, leading her to mistakenly end a partnership. Opening up on the meaning behind the song, Devlin shared, “On paper this looks like one of the cringiest things I’ve ever done! I had a mental health crisis which led to me breaking up with the person I was with – the manic episode lasted for about three days. When my feelings came flooding back to me and I realised what I’d done – I wrote this song and sent it to them along with a groveling text message. And guess what – it worked!!

With ‘Back To My Senses,’ Devlin unveils the first song from her recording journey at the legendary Blackbird Studios in Nashville, where the album’s roots were planted.

The track means a lot to me as it was the first song I ever recorded in Nashville, so in a way it was the catalyst for me taking the leap and recording the whole album there. It was also played a load on the last UK tour so I made sure that I had my guitarist lay down his backing vocals and get my mandolin player on there as well – it would have felt empty without them! Sonically, it’s a bit dad rock – but I wanted it to be. I know it may not be the coolest thing nor have I ever been cool – so I embrace it, as it’s one of my favourite genres!” – Janet Devlin

Powerfully merging Devlin’s Irish charm with pure rock elements, ‘EMOTIONAL RODEO’ drew influence from the fiery energy of the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Americana legend Chris Stapleton. It captured the essence of loving fearlessly, despite the challenges that come with Borderline Personality Disorder and bipolar disorder.

‘EMOTIONAL RODEO’ (released 15 Nov 2024; tagged Contemporary Country) has had a major impact since its release, galvanising Devlin’s place in the country-rock scene. The album reached #1 on iTunes Country Charts#4 on the UK Official Country Artists Albums Chart#5 on the UK Official Indie Breakers Chart, and #21 on the UK Official Independent Albums Chart. With singles reaching #31 in the Big Top 40#15 in the UK iTunes Charts#4 in the iTunes Country Charts, national radio play on Capital & HeartAbsolute CountryNew To 2 with Scott Mills, placements on the BBC Core playlist and over 110 regional radio playlists. Singles ‘Red Flag’ and ‘Best Life’ landed coveted month-long positions on the BBC Radio 2 B List Playlist, the latter peaking at 38 in the UK Radio Monitor Airplay Top 100.

The album also saw press coverage in the likes of Daily ExpressDaily MirrorDaily MailThe SunOK!Record CollectorThe Irish PostThe Irish NewsWonderlandCelebMixATC, VIP Magazine, and Record of the Day. Other notable recognitions include a special appearance on The Late Late Show Country Music Special (the world’s longest running live chat show), an interview with Ray D’Arcy on RTE1 and Red Flag video shown on Sunday Brunch.

Following the album’s whirlwind success, Devlin is set to embark on several live dates this year, showcasing her exceptional country-rock material. After supporting country star Corey Kent in February, she kicks off on March 8th by performing at the iconic C2C (Country to Country) festivals in Berlin (Uber Eats Music Hall), Belfast and London, as well as headlining the Roadhouse Weekender in East Sussex in July and performing at The Long Road Festival in Leicestershire, which takes place from 22nd to 24th August.


Janet Devlin has found a foothold in the music industry, standing out amongst the crowd with her soul-stirring vocal prowess and introspective lyricism. Originally formed by a fusion of tender folk, indie, and quirky pop, she has crafted a discography that profoundly resonates with listeners. With the self-confessional 
“Emotional Rodeo”, the singer-songwriter has emerged as a distinct new voice in the country world, using her personal experiences and realizations to deliver an honest, authentic collection of songs.

Nashville Breakout Maggie Antone To Make UK Debut at C2C

NASHVILLE BREAKOUT MAGGIE ANTONE TO MAKE UK DEBUT NEXT MONTH
 
Follows The Release of Highly Acclaimed 2024 LP ‘Rhinestoned’
























 

Antone’s First-Ever Headline Tour Commences Today in the US 
 
LONDON, U.K.(13 February, 2025) – Breakout Nashville star Maggie Antone is set to make her UK debut next month at C2C: Country To Country Festival in London (March 14-15) followed by a performance and signing at Rough Trade East on March 16th - tickets available here. The upcoming trip follows an explosive 2024 for Antone, who released her highly acclaimed debut album RHINESTONED in August via her own label Love Big in partnership with Thirty Tigers. 
 
Rhinestoned offers ten songs worth of compelling evidence that this Virginia native just might be country’s next big thing. From ‘One Too Many’ which Billboard named as one of their “must-hear new country songs,” to ‘Johnny Moonshine’ and her debut original single ‘Suburban Outlaw’—a song Holler praised for "lyrics that land like zippy teen movie one-liners."  
 

Antone’s playful humor, distinctly raspy drawl and undeniable charisma land the initial punches on Rhinestoned.


 A closer listen reveals the vocalist, songwriter and producer’s overarching desire to heal her heart by opening up and extending a helping hand to anyone who wants to do the same. 

It’s Antone’s ability to contrast her raucousness with a disarming vulnerability that makes Rhinestoned the honest affirmation of life’s ups and downs she hoped it would be. “No matter how big or small it is,” Antone says, “when you’ve gone through something and you hurt, it matters.”


(23 Aug 2024) Maggie Antone - Rhinestoned (Maggie Antone/ Love Big) 10 songs, 37:14
1 Johnny Moonshine 02:59 Written by Maggie Antone, Natalie Hemby 7.1 million streams
2 One Too Many 03:10 written by Maggie Antone 790K streams
3 Everyone But You 03:40 written by Jillian Jacqueline, Maggie Antone, Melissa Fuller 543K streams
4 Mess With Texas 03:39 written by Tofer Brown, Lauren Hungate, Maggie Antone 172K streams
5 High Standards E 04:17 468K streams
6 Suburban Outlaw E 04:56 3.3 million streams
7 I Don't Wanna Hear About It 04:43  written by Carol Karpinen, Maggie Antone 118K
8 Me & Jose Cuervo 02:03  written by Maggie Antone 109K streams
9 Rhinestoned 03:52 written by Carol Karpinen, Maggie Antone 855K
10. Meant To Meet 03:57 148K streams

Rhinestoned was co-produced by Antone alongside Carrie K. (Noah Kahan, Jessie Murph, Suki Waterhouse), with writing contributions from Trent Dabbs (Ingrid Michaelson, Kacey Musgraves), Aaron Raitiere (Lady Gaga, Ashley McBryde), Jillian Jacqueline (Keith Urban, Little Big Town) and Antone’s longtime hero Natalie Hemby (The Highwomen, Miranda Lambert). 
 
Antone has been hailed as a bold new voice on the rise in alternative country. Her cover of Tyler Childers’ ‘Lady May’ won her instant attention, and Interpretations, a follow up collection of covers including Dolly Parton’s ‘Jolene’, John Prine’s ‘Spanish Pipe Dream’ and more, was released in late 2022 to early acclaim.
 
A songwriter since the age of 16, Antone has made music her full-time job since leaving college in late 2021. She is determined to make music that connects with people and write songs that make audiences feel seen and heard, a quality she deeply admires in the artists that have so inspired her to choose this path. 
 
In addition to making her Grand Ole Opry debut, last year Antone supported artists such as Ella Langley, Trampled By The Turtles, and 49 Winchester - who featured her on the title track of their acclaimed album Leavin’ This Holler, and is set to begin her first-ever headline tour in the US today. 
 
“One of country music’s most fearless new artists, thanks to her unvarnished songwriting, vocal swagger and viral hits” – Billboard
 
“Maggie Antone Proves Her Musical Worth on ‘Rhinestoned’” – People
 
“‘Rhinestoned’ is the perfect introduction to an artist who has the potential to be country music’s next big thing. Antone balances vulnerability, longing, and sadness with lighthearted tongue-in-cheek humor throughout the track list, proving her versatility as an artist early on.” – American Songwriter

REVIEWS



Standouts: Oh Susannah, Don’t Wanna Say Goodnight, Habits, Little Town

Though Flores’ deftness flitting between sounds – his “variety pack” quality – is demonstrably impressive, listeners and the industry alike will eventually want him to settle on one. That may well follow his debut, but for now, he’s set himself up with an impressive menu to choose from. 8.5/10 HOLLER

Oklahoma’s newest country artist, Wyatt Flores, releases his eagerly anticipated debut album, Welcome To The Plains, via Island Records, and it is a stunning tribute to self-discovery as well as home and ancestors. Full of wry observations and hope, these plaintive 14 tracks will transport you to a new kind of traditional, earthy, rural-leaning country sound….. This is a confident debut album, with Flores an engaging, enthusiastic performer, as evidenced by his UK debut at iconic Long Road festival.  We can’t wait to welcome Wyatt back, at Country to Country festival in 2025 where he will be making his festival debut to an eager crowd. 4.5 STARS Emma Jordan EF COUNTRY

Across these 14 tracks, including songwriting collaborations with Old Crow Medicine Show’s Ketch Secor and Aaron Raitiere, Flores delivers the grounded and sincere storytelling he’s celebrated for, seamlessly blending traditional country and folk sounds.

Reflecting on the album, Flores shared, “It’s an album about home and a search for happiness. It’s an album about Stillwater, Oklahoma, and all the other little towns that have raised people like you and me. It’s an album about my family, and the people and places in my life who have defined who I am today.  This album is happy on one side and heartbreak on the other, and whoever you are, I hope you find something you love in here.”

Welcome To The Plains also features packaging created by Flores’ long-time artistic collaborator, Chloe Tyler, that uniquely interprets the music and his story, including a 12-page booklet that features photos, original hand-painted artwork, album insights and much more. “Since ‘Please Don’t Go’ Chloe has visualised the artwork through her interpretation of my music,” Flores shares. “My music wouldn’t be the same without her vision alongside it.
