Dustin Lynch: ‘Good Girl’ Single Review

If you haven’t noticed, Dustin Lynch completely wiped out his Instagram page back in February and started from scratch. Now he only posts video clips that showcase single moments of his real, private life. This allows his fans to really connect with him on a personal level. While on the topic of being private and personal, Lynch’s latest single ‘Good Girl’ is filled with personal meaning. Since Dustin is still searching for his one true love, this song showcases the journey that comes along with searching for a ‘Good Girl’ to spend the rest of his life with.

The timing of the release of ‘Good Girl’ is everything. It dropped on May 5th, with the start to summer right around the corner. This means that before long our weekends will be filled with cook-outs, beach days, country concerts and bonfires! With the warm air fast approaching, comes the thought of summertime love. ‘‘Good Girl’ is a song about love. Though not just a fling, a real, true, long-lasting loving relationship with the girl of his dreams that he can take home to his Mama. It is an upbeat country tune. The lyrics are a play on the definition of ‘Good Girl.’ Swapping back and forth from describing to a “girl” how “good” things can be to meaning a girl that is genuinely good in nature. As the lyrics go: I got it good girl…’Cause I got myself a good girl. A foot-tapping, hand clapping percussion beat leaves the listener wanting to play it again! This tune is on its way to being a summertime jam in no time!

Lynch, a Tullahoma, Tennessee native penned ‘Good Girl’ along with Justin Ebach and Andy Albert. In an interview with People, Lynch mentioned that his cowriters “have already found their “good girl… So they were probably writing from a different spot than I am.” Lynch also told People: “The inspiration behind the song is probably me longing to find that person. I think finding that special someone is something we’re all hurtin’ to do. [The inspiration for this song is] just knowing that that person is out there somewhere for me… and knowing that my mom wants me to find her more than anybody.” Lynch will have to continue his search for love while playing shows around the country on his current tour. Unfortunately, none of his stops this summer will be in New England.

Maddie and Tae: ‘Friend’s Don’t’ Single Review

With well-loved hits like ‘Girl in a Country Song’ from 2014 and ‘Fly’ from 2015, fans have been patiently waiting for some new music from Sugar Land, Texas native Maddie Marlow and Ada, Oklahoma native Taylor Dye. It’s been a couple of years since the country duo Maddie & Tae released anything, but they recently released their newest single, titled ‘Friend’s Don’t.’ Without a doubt, it was worth waiting for!

‘Friend’s Don’t’ is an emotional, modern, pop-sounding country song that has cleverly written lyrics. It describes the differences that occur between two people in a relationship and two people that are just friends. Friends don’t call you in the middle of the night. Couldn’t even tell you why. They just felt like saying “hi.” Friends don’t stand around, playing with their keys. Finding reasons not to leave. Trying to hide the chemistry. Many of us have been in that relationship that starts out as a friendship, but slowly progresses into something more. The multi-talented singers/songwriters/guitarists continue to tell about both the tenseness and excitement that comes as the relationship evolves. Musically, ‘Friend’s Don’t’ is trendy and current. It is saturated with electric guitar riffs and foot-tapping percussion.

‘Friend’s Don’t’ gives us a little glimpse into Maddie & Tae’s sophomore studio album. It was reported in PopCulture that Marlow said: “I hope our fans love this song as much as we do. Anything we ever do we have them in mind and want to always create music they can connect with. We have a big story to tell on this album, and ‘Friends Don’t’ is the beginning of it all.” The pair wrote ‘Friend’s Don’t’ along with Justin Ebach and Jon Nite under their new record label Mercury Nashville. Be sure to download and take a listen now because ‘Friend’s Don’t’ is set to hit radio stations on May 14th.

Maddie and Tae will be performing at CMA Fest in Nashville this summer, but they do not currently have any New England tour dates scheduled. You can keep up to date with them on social media by following their Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter accounts.
