RDC has certainly supported them. Guerini jumped early on female singles that sounded like hits — including Arts’ “I Hate This,” ’s “Closer to You” and RaeLynn’s “Tailgate,” which are all top 10 on the current list — preferring to set the agenda for his company rather than to play it safe.

From left: SESAC vp of creative services The RDC channel has a terrestrial component — it’s heard on KRDC Los Shannan Hatch, Allen and Josh London. Angeles — but it’s primarily a streamed product, reflecting the company’s approach to music platforms. Radio Disney aired at one point on roughly 40 FM and AM signals, but they generated mixed financial results with little room for improvement, and Disney divested itself of most of them. Guerini, who began his career in radio, believes RDC is establishing itself in the country space the same way that Radio Disney set a tone in pop. , , and all received early boosts from Radio Disney before they reached the wider terrestrial audience. They grew as artists at the same time the company’s audience was maturing into adults. The RDC target is slightly older — the core listener is aged 17-24 years — but that’s also an age at which music makes a huge impression. Underscoring that fact, Shorr has encountered fans who have tattooed “Fight Like a Girl,” her signature song, onto their bodies. Those fans mostly encountered Shorr Walker Hayes joined five other artists for a WSOC Charlotte, N.C., on RDC and SiriusXM, and that’s one reason that Nashville managers and guitar pull on Jan. 22 at Coyote Joe’s.

RDC will devote some of its energy during the Country Radio Seminar to a public-facing event within walking distance from the convention’s base at the Omni Nashville Hotel. The showcase is intended to demonstrate to Nashville’s music community that RDC is paying attention to the up-and-coming creative class, but Guerini is confident that radio programmers who venture to the event will witness a response from an audience they have misjudged. “Hopefully,” he says, “they will see firsthand females enjoying females perform.” That’s an important aspect of the current controversies surrounding country radio’s disrespect of female artists. , , Reba McEntire and have inspired countless women through the years, delivering a vital message to their fans that women have value. “As someone who was raised on and heard a lot of female LOCASH performed a concert on Jan. 18 presented by WIL St. Louis voices historically, I want my daughters to have that same kind of experience at Ballpark Village.

While females have faced hardships in the past in country, the issue was not nearly as bleak just 10 years ago as it is today. The bro-country movement may have contributed to it. The themes of the songs from that period — heavy drinking, quick and easy sex — are acceptable for males in the culture but widely frowned upon for women. Thus, female voices were squeezed out at that time. The sound and themes of country have widened now that that phase has passed, even if women’s place in the mix has not. The RDC audience ballooned by 798 percent in its second year, notes Guerini, and some of that expansion is likely due to young listeners discovering music they can’t find elsewhere. He’s convinced that women will rise again in the genre, similar to the ascent they are experiencing in other areas of culture, particularly politics. Thus, terrestrial radio faces a dilemma: represent female artists better in the mix or allow the audience to slip away to other platforms Aaron Watson visited with country execs backstage when he as fans find a wider sonic variety through other sources. presented a Night of songwriter event Jan. 24 at Nashville’s “I think the best days are still ahead for female artists — for artists in general .

MAKIN’ TRACKS TOM ROLAND [email protected] Chris Young’s Past Meets The Present In ‘Raised On Country’

It’s a good time to stop and review. They created a good bit of the production framework and tossed in a few Ten years ago this month — Jan. 26, 2009, to be exact — RCA issued what lines for the first verse, but they deliberately avoided going too far down the would ultimately become Chris Young’s first No. 1 single, “Gettin’ You road with it, intentionally allowing Young to put his stamp on an idea that had Home (The Black Dress Song),” on PlayMPE. Clad in a low-slung black hat some anthemic qualities. in the accompanying graphics, the western gear emphasized the sound of “Those are so tough,” says Young. “It’s a very simple concept, but you’re Young’sAmerica: a rich baritone voice and a production that owed a sonic tying it to me as an artist and making it very much honest when it comes off.” debt to country tradition. They spent the better part of three hours As Young steps into his next decade, his building “Raised On Country,” loading up newest single — “Raised On Country,” which the first verse with the lifestyle references in shipped on Jan. 4 — knits his past and present Crowder’s original concept. Verse two provided well. His PR photos stick with the wavy locks a variation on the idea, focused on country’s that have become standard for his public image, emotional impact on his impressionable years. and the production includes the arena-rock It was Young’s idea to sprinkle the chorus drum sound that backs his more recent material. with the names of his heroes, specifically But the bulk of the sound puts a joyous spin on focusing on those associated with country’s that original trad-leaning position. traditional side: , Willie Nelson “We were trying to do that,” says Young of and Joe Diffie. that blend. “This album as a whole skews a “When you first start going around as an little more traditional than I have been, I guess, artist, people ask you who your influences especially on some of the singles off the last were,” says Young. “If I had written this song couple records.” at the beginning of my career, I could have been “Raised On Country” actually goes back a lot like, ‘Here, play this.’ ” farther than 10 years. It rifles through names They didn’t capture all his influences — of artists from the ’70s,’80s and ’90s who were Randy Travis, Clint Black and Keith Whitley instrumental in forming Young’s understanding each could have made the cut if their names of the genre. had suited the rhyme scheme — but as they YOUNG “My upbringin’ sounds like George Strait approached the bridge, Young felt like an singin’,” he croons in a stand-out line from the reference was essential. They chorus, finding a new way to cite a source who’s somewhere in the vocal DNA reframed the “Raised On Country” title as a breakdown with hand claps, of just about every guy who’s working a country mic in 2019. plopping a key line from “Chattahoochee” — “A lot about livin’ and a little “You’re not putting a song like that out without referencing George Strait,” ’bout love” — into the mix, deftly underscoring the lifestyle theme and paying says Young. “You’re just not.” a nod to AJ without actually naming him. The singers he lists in “Raised On Country” aren’t the only people who get Once Young went back to concert details, Crowder shipped the track off to credit. His co-writers, Cary Barlowe (“,” “It Don’t Hurt Like It Used Nashville keyboard player Alex Wright, who added some honky-tonk To”) and co-producer Corey Crowder (“Hangin’ On,” “Tailgate”), worked and grafted an organ part underneath. Combined with Barlowe’s dirty Gibson up the bones of the song during a bus trip that took them to a venue that had SG, the intro unintentionally rings of Waylon Jennings’ “Only Daddy That’ll some songwriting history for the trio: They had co-written “Holiday,” a track Walk the Line.” from the Losing Sleep album, at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre in an Atlantic Barlowe and Crowder added the harmonies that day, and Young threaded Coast area in Florida first developed by Spanish explorers in the 16th century. a bass vocal into the bridge, though he came back and resang the final lead to The writers came back for a Feb. 16 concert stop during Young’s 2018 Losing get a cleaner sound before Luke Combs’ producer, engineer Scott Moffatt, Sleep tour and found creative magic again. mixed it. “I don’t know if there’s something about that town, the old historic vibes,” “Being that buses have generators and all that stuff, anything that’s mic’d says Barlowe. “We’ve always had good luck in that area.” very rarely gets kept just because it’s impossible to get rid of that noise,” says As Young tended to details for that night’s concert early in the day, Crowder Crowder. “So we had to recut the vocal, but, with the exception of that, I don’t and Barlowe batted around ideas, and Crowder particularly wanted to chase think very much got replaced.” an uptempo song with a throwback feel. “Raised on country” was the theme, “Raised On Country” created a happy issue for Young over the next year: but it wasn’t necessarily a title when he brought it up. “Having to sit on this song since February about killed me,” he says. “Through “Sometimes you put titles in your phone, and that kind of steers the ship,” the whole summer, [I was] going, ‘Man, I wish this was in the set.’ ” says Crowder. “But this was just a concept that the whole reason that you talk Crowder was the first to play it live — at the Listening Room in Nashville on the way you talk and that you sing the way you sing, dress the way you dress, Jan. 12 — and Young gave it a concert spin for the first time during an acoustic you know, you drink the way you drink and all those things are because of the show for WSOC Charlotte on Jan. 22.
