Start A Band

Single Release0 Comments

The artist releases his single, Start A Band, featuring Urban, from his album, Play. Paisley:

It’s probably not what you think, in the sense that it’s not a blazing fast thing. It’s more of a rockin’ Eagles style tune like back when Joe Walsh and Don Felder would play those harmony parts.

Welcome To The Future

Single Release0 Comments

The artist releases his single, Welcome To The Future, from his album, American Saturday Night.

I’m always striving for that moment where I feel like I did something the best I could do it, and I feel like with this song, I did that. I feel like the production is perfect for the song. There’s three things I wanted to do. I wanted to show this world through my eyes, my kids’ eyes, and my granddad’s eyes, with this look of hope. First of all, if you wanna blow the mind of a 10 year old in 1982, which was me, you go back and you take your iPhone and show him Pac-Man on it. You would have seen me spontaneously combust. I would have lost my mind. And then you want to do the same thing to my grandfather, go back to 1941 in the Phillippines and tell him, ‘Hang in there when the air raid sirens and kamikaze pilots are going off, it’ll be fine. Your grandson’s gonna play Japan twice on tour.’ He would have thought you were out of your mind. And then there’s my kids, who are gonna be like, ‘Dad, what’s the big deal? Yeah, the President’s black’.

paisleyPaisley and his family appears on the cover of People to discuss their newest addition, their son Jasper.

Huck was three days early. Which is appropriate. He’s not a laid-back kid. He’s a go-getter. He’s ready to go when he gets up. A “very animated, fiery and dramatic” child.

Water

Single Release0 Comments

The artist releases Water, from, American Saturday Night. The song according to Paisley:

deals with a love affair with water that began with an inflatable pool and grew to bigger bodies of water, and eventually all the things that you can do around water that you can’t get away with anywhere else. My songs are certainly influenced by how I see the world through other sets of eyes as well as my own.

Remind Me

Single Release0 Comments

The artist releases his single, Remind Me, featuring vocals from Underwood, from his album, This Is Country Music. Paisley says that Underwood was his first choice to record the duet with:

I think we’ve become really close, having toured together and become friends and co-hosting the CMAs for several years. We just get along great and sing great together. She’s probably pretty much my first choice to sing with when it comes to a duet with a woman like that. I mean, we just sort of share the same values and get along that well. And also, I just don’t think there’s a better singer than her, so it’s sort of selfish to be able to sing with her and perform. Every take sounded like that [the final recording]
