future hit at five

Still bummed about Josh Abbott Band having to cancel their show at the Knitting Factory due to Josh Abbott needing emergency surgery recently?  Don't worry though, they said they'll make up the gig (and as soon as we know when, so will you)...

A song about a board game??? Well, not really. But they say it was inspired by the game anyway.  Check out Love & Theft explain the meaning behind yesterday's Future Hit at 5 and oh yeah........play it for you too. Of course we love it, but don't let us sway ya.  ...

Since we're giving away tickets for Eric Church's show at Taco Bell Arena before you can buy them all this week, we figured one of the best ways to get you ready to win was to check out his latest song "Kill A Word."  Just imagine how crazy Taco Bell Arena is gonna go when he breaks out this one...

Needless to say, Kelsea Ballerini is ON FIRE right now! Three straight number one singles and there are no signs that she's slowing down. Especially after hearing her latest "Yeah Boy," I'm thinking she could easily grab number one number four (see what I did there :P)...

Gotta say, I LOVED playing yesterday's Future Hit at 5. Jon Pardi's "Got a Little Dirt on My Boots" is such an awesome track. But don't let me influence you either way. Take a listen and let us know what YOU think. Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down

Lauren Alaina is another reason why I actually miss "American Idol."  Of course as you may remember she didn't win (lost to Scotty McCreery on the 10th season).  But she was still able to launch a career through the show and is another example of an amazing talent we may never have heard of if it wasn't for the show...

Gotta say, after yesterday's Future Hit at 5 I'm even more excited for Dan + Shay coming to Boise next month along with Chris Young and Cassadee Pope! (Get the details on that show by clicking HERE)  I played "How Not To" and now I can't wait to hear them sing it at the Ford Idaho Center...

What can I say, Brandy Clark is amazing.  She has written for everyone from Miranda Lambert to the Band Perry to Darius Rucker to Sheryl Crow and the list goes on and on.  So it's so great to hear her when she does her own thing.  Check out her song we played for the Future Hit at 5 yesterday "Love Can Go to Hell" and let us know what you think...

Yesterday on the Future Hit at Five we featured none other than David Nail and his song "Good at Tonight." Personally...........I think this song is awesome ;) But don't let my opinion sway you. Take a listen for yourself and let me know what you think...

Keith Urban's new CD "Ripcord" has been out for a few weeks now and it's full of some great music! "Wasted Time" topped the charts for Keith a couple of weeks ago. Our Future Hit At Five tonight (Thurs 7/21) is the next single from "Ripcord"  It's called "Blue Ain't Your Color"...
