BILLBOARD COUNTRY UPDATE JULY 6, 2020 | PAGE 2 OF 22 • HARDY (Big Loud) — After writing hits for Blake Shelton, LOCASH and Morgan Wallen, HARDY’s own “One Beer” (No. 25, Country Airplay) is making his one name much more familiar to the average country fan. Smart, twisty songwriting and his penchant for small-town stories seed a first album expected in late summer or early fall ladled with classic-rock, Southern rock and alt-rock influences. • Parker McCollum (MCA Nashville) — Already a known quantity on the Texas club circuit, McCollum is breaking out nationally with catchy single “Pretty Heart” (No. 26, Country Airplay). With two previous indie albums under his belt, he already has a healthy backlog of heart-on-the-sleeve admis- sions to keep new fans exploring. Will the first major-label project be an EP? LP? TBD.

A gritty, blues/rock sound fits that background, as do friendships with Kid Rock and ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons. Montana arrives at the BBR Music Group through producer Michael Knox (Jason Aldean, Trace Adkins). • MacKenzie Porter (Big Loud) — With her first Big Loud single, “These Days,” released to radio in April, Porter’s girl-next-door vocals cut like a blade while the distinct lift of her choruses comes direct from the Taylor Swift school of songwriting. Thrice nominated in the Canadian Country Music Awards, Porter’s first American album has a tentative October release date attached. • REDFERRIN (Round Here) — Emerging on Florida Georgia Line’s label, singer-songwriter Blake Redferrin owns his sound, easing into a drawling effort while obliquely celebrating his neck with “Red in My Last Name.” His hard consonants and Southern enunciations suggest he draws heavily from FGL’s Tyler Hubbard. No official date for REDFERRIN’s debut EP has been set, though it could come as early as August.

Trahern presented Pearce plaques honoring her Ikon. What’s in store — remixes and mashups of established hits, similar RIAA-certified gold single “Hide the Wine” and platinum duet with Lee to Silver’s country concert productions? Original EDM material sung by Brice, “I Hope You’re Happy Now.” country artists, a la Diplo? The label is leaving room for both possibilities. • Noah Schnacky (Big Machine) — Two of the seven titles on his eponymous debut, “Meet the Man” and “Hello Beautiful,” practically announce the project as an introduction. Due July 24, the EP is loaded with optimism, a trait that has helped him amass 2.3 million TikTok followers. Schnacky’s breathy, pop-tipped phrasing owes a debt to Gavin DeGraw and John Mayer. • Elvie Shane (BBR Music Group) — A former preacher, Shane saw the light and became an evangelist for country music, inspired by the energy of Bruce Springsteen and the grit of fellow Kentuckian Chris Stapleton. His Maddie & Tae members Maddie Marlow (center) and Tae Dye talked forthcoming EP frames him as a bad ass, though “My Boy,” built on his love pork rinds and tour buses with CMT host Cody Alan during the July 1 for his stepson, suggests he convincingly observes the Golden Rule. livestream CMA Summer Stay-Cay.
