    April 18, 2016, Issue 495 Inside The ACMs With RAC Clark Our annual interview with Exec. Producer RAC Clark offers insight into the 51st ACM Awards (4/3) and many of its notable performances. CA: Let’s hit the numbers first and talk about this year’s ratings... RAC: They sucked. I’ll just say that. They sucked. [Ed. Note: 11.18 million viewers, 2.3 rating/7 share]. But it was one of the more competitive nights we’ve had since being up against the American Idol finale a few years back. The Walking Dead was big. The iHeart awards didn’t rate that well, really, so I don’t think that hurt us. The Walking Dead really got us and Steve Harvey’s Little Big Shots is a new hit on NBC that actually beat us in the second half-hour at 8pm. We won the night, but ratings were down year- to-year after a spectacular year in Dallas with the 50th.

  • If There's a Rulebook for Country Stardom — a How-To Guide For
    If there's a rulebook for country stardom — a how-to guide for performers looking to climb the charts, fill the arenas with fans, and build a legacy — Eric Church certainly hasn't read it. He's never been a big fan of rules, anyway. He'd rather chase down success on his own terms, taking the road less traveled. "I’m a big believer that everything you do should always be a little different than what you've done before," says the songwriter, whose milestones include 10 chart-topping singles, five Platinum-selling albums, seven ACM Awards, four CMA trophies, and 10 GRAMMY nominations. In a genre built upon tradition, Church has become a new kind of country icon — one who still writes songs anchored by his southern roots, but regularly reaches far outside the genre's safety zone, too. He hits a new peak with Heart & Soul, a collection of three albums created during a single month in the North Carolinian mountains. These 24 tracks capture Church at his very best, matching raw storytelling and climactic hooks with performances that blur the lines between country, soul, Bible Belt funk, and renegade rock & roll. Produced by longtime collaborator Jay Joyce and split into three separate records — Heart, Soul, and the six-track & — Heart & Soul is unlike any project in Church's catalog… which is exactly the way he likes it. "The artists that I love are the ones who do something new with every album they make," he says. "They'll write from a different perspective or record in a different place.

  • Capturing That Solid-Gold Nugget
    Chapter 1 Capturing That Solid-Gold Nugget In This Chapter ▶ Gathering song ideas from anywhere ▶ Organizing and tracking your thoughts and inspirations ▶ Documenting your ideas his book is for everyone who shares the dream of harnessing the song- Twriting power we all have within. You’ve come to the right place if your heart keeps telling you to write a song, but your mind is uncertain as to the process of the craft or what’s required to create a really good song. You bought the right book if you’re wondering how to collect and organize your ideas. You have found the right resource if you have pieces of songs lying in notebooks and on countless cassettes but can’t seem to put the pieces together. This book is for you if you have racks of finished song demos but don’t know what to do next to get them heard. When you know the elements that make up a great song and how the pros go about writing one, you can get on the right path to creating one of your own. Unless you’re lucky enough to have fully finished songs come to you in your deepest dreams, or to somehow take dictation from the ghosts of Tin Pan Alley (the publishing area located in New York City in the 1930s and 1940s), most of us need to summon the forces, sources, reasons, and seasons that give us the necessary motivation to draw a song from our heart of hearts. Given that initial spark, you then need the best means of gathering those ideas, organizing them, putting them into form, and documenting them as they roll COPYRIGHTEDin — before it’s too late and they MATERIAL roll right out again! Have you ever noticed how you can remember a powerful dream just after you’ve awakened only for it to vanish into thin air in the light of day? Song ideas can be just as illusive.
