Swift was preceded by the Arista’s Jason Michael Carroll, whose powerfully-voiced set included current March 13- Alex LeVasseur Memorial Scholarship single “I Can Sleep When I’m Dead.” Jake Owen introduced Program Presents The Hit Men Of Music Row - Rocketown a stirring new song titled “Don’t Think I Can’t Love You” - Nashville, TN - www.etix.com. in addition to selections from his current album, all backed March 14 - Rumble On The Row - The Factory in Franklin, TN by a band that featured a yellow-goggled drummer. Bucky rolled out on a motorbike and admitted, “I’m glad Covington April 1-5 - Tin Pan South Songwriters Festival - Nashville, I didn’t bust my ass” before launching into his well-received TN - www.tinpansouth.com performance, highlighted by “The Bible And The Belt”. Capitol’s likeable Luke Bryan opened the show with “Country April 14 - 2008 CMT Music Awards - Belmont University’s Man” and closed his set with “All My Friends Say.” Curb Event Center - www.cmt.com Intro videos, typically conversation fodder at New Faces, were fairly sedate this year, the General Patton turn from Arista’s Skip Bishop notwithstanding. More than making up for the artist clips were the “Are You Smarter Than A...” vids from CRB No Holds Barred that quizzed programmers, promo reps, consultants and more CRS Friday, like preceding days, was shoehorned full of solid on a variety of subjects. Of course the whole event came close panels and inspiring music. A reprise of last year’s “No Holds to being upstaged by the uncontrolled snorting of Lyric Street’s Barred” session posted radio and label execs on a platform with Stephanie Keshe. artists for a wide-ranging discussion. Discussing the ascendancy of Taylor Swift, Big Machine’s Scott Borchetta said her online successes gave the label “a story to bring to radio.” Sony BMG’s Joe Galante added that efforts to find other media to break acts don’t supplant the need for the “critical mass at radio.” John Rich warned that labels making celebrity signings should be careful because, “A sh**ty record is a sh**ty record no matter how famous you are.” Borchetta noted the irony of that statement in light of Rich’s reality show Gone Country. McVay Media’s Charlie Cook stated his belief that country record sales have suffered from Country radio’s lack of marketing, though CBS Radio’s Jeff Garrison said he didn’t completely agree. Garrison also debunked the notion of widespread 16-song playlists, a notion raised by moderator Brian Mansfield of USA Today. Jewel championed the Face Time: Bucky Covington, Taylor Swift, Jake Owen and importance of radio, calling broadcasters’ interaction with Jason Michael Carroll (Not Pictured: Luke Bryan) labels and artists “the winningest combination.” Both Jewel and ©2008 Country Aircheck™ — All rights reserved.

Rich admitted that the push to get broadcasters to pay labels and artists performance rights fees may not be in artists’ best interests. “You don’t want to trip over a dollar to get to a penny,” Jewel noted. Radio Sales Day Friday’s Sales track was well attended and loaded with value.

  • Narrative Representations of Gender and Genre Through Lyric, Music, Image, and Staging in Carrie Underwood’S Blown Away Tour
    COUNTRY CULTURE AND CROSSOVER: Narrative Representations of Gender and Genre Through Lyric, Music, Image, and Staging in Carrie Underwood’s Blown Away Tour Krisandra Ivings A Thesis Presented In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree Master of Arts in Music with Specialization in Women’s Studies University of Ottawa © Krisandra Ivings, Ottawa, Canada, 2016 Abstract This thesis examines the complex and multi-dimensional narratives presented in the work of mainstream female country artist Carrie Underwood, and how her blending of musical genres (pop, rock, and country) affects the narratives pertaining to gender and sexuality that are told through her musical texts. I interrogate the relationships between and among the domains of music, lyrics, images, and staging in Underwood’s live performances (Blown Away Tour: Live DVD) and related music videos in order to identify how these gendered narratives relate to genre, and more specifically, where these performances and videos adhere to, expand on, or break from country music tropes and traditions. Adopting an interlocking theoretical approach grounded in genre theory, gender theory, narrative theory in the context of popular music, and happiness theory, I examine how, as a female artist in the country music industry, Underwood uses genre-blending to construct complex gendered narratives in her musical texts. Ultimately, I find that in her Blown Away Tour: Live DVD, Underwood uses diverse narrative strategies, sometimes drawing on country tropes, to engage techniques and stylistic influences of several pop and rock styles, and in doing so explores the gender norms of those genres. ii Acknowledgements A great number of people have supported this thesis behind the scenes, whether financially, academically, or emotionally.

  • Karen Poston ______
    Karen Poston ______________________________________________ From Country Music People ….The sort of material that, if Nashville was still about country, would have won her prominence in Music City. And when Poston delivers a rollicking version of Liz Anderson’s “Ride, Ride, Ride” , it’s also clear that the Music City that once was would have also embraced her as a singer! - Rob Patterson From Rockzilla.com Ms. Poston doesn’t just sing like the icons, she writes genuine honky tonk songs like they did. Some people simply have the magic, and Poston is one of the lucky ones who do. Her debut CD for Austin’s Music Room proves beyond any doubt that Ms. Poston is a major Americana singing and songwriting talent. For someone so young, Ms. Poston writes bull’s-eye lyrics. Her rhymes are good and her stories and settings are even better. The title track sounds like it was penned with Loretta Lynn in mind. - William Michael Smith From The Austin Chronicle Make no mistake, though, even among such rarefied country company, Poston’s the real star, mixing her love and heartbreak-laden originals with choice covers from the likes of Lynn Anderson, Conway Twitty, and Loretta Lynn. You say you’ve never heard of Karen Poston? Well, if you’re an Austin music fan, surely you’ve heard at least one of her songs. Say for example, “Lydia” the tale of a widowed woman who’s lost two of her loved ones in the Virginia coal mine. It was one of the highlights on Slaid Cleaves 2000 breakout , Broke Down.
