We launched this tee in partnership with New York’s Country 94.7, Walker Hayes and The ‘Be A Craig’ Fund to raise money for the purchase of meals to feed our frontlines in NYC! Buyers also got access to an exclusive Virtual Walker Hayes show! Learn more about the special project here.

The virtual show has come and gone, but you can still help! With each purchase now through the end of the summer, we’re donating 20% back to The ‘Be A Craig’ Fund, so that they can continue to do great things!

The Be A Craig Fund was established by Walker Hayes as a tribute to a man named Craig who gave the Hayes’ family a van when they were struggling. His kindness meant that the family would have a vehicle big enough for all of the Hayes children to have a seatbelt. In keeping with the sentiment of paying it forward, and through gifts to support nonprofits that empower others to make the path easier, Walker wants to encourage individuals to seek out opportunities to help others.

New York’s Country 94.7’s Up Close & Country With Kane Brown

August 29, 2019/in Blog /by Christina Bosch

Yesterday, Kane Brown participated in Up Close & Country with New York’s Country 94.7 at their new studios and sang all four of his number one hits. He also talked with DJ and on-air personality Katie Neal about his wife Katelyn and their unborn baby girl. After Neal congratulated the singer-songwriter on his big news, she asked who picked the name Kingsley and Brown explained that if it was a boy, they had decided on Kingston, so they wanted to keep a similar theme and landed on Kinglsey.

They also discussed his latest collaboration with EDM DJ Marshemello, “One Right Thing” which Brown had written but didn’t make his latest album, Experiment. After reading through the lyrics, Marshmello came up with the instrumentals and after taking out the banjos out, it was perfect. Neal then suggested his next collaboration should be with pop/R&B artist Lizzo.

“I think the first time you’ve played Up Close & Country for us was a little over two years ago and I was thinking about it, at the end of the interview I asked ‘What’s your goal for 2017 and what are you excited about?’ and before I could even finish you were like ‘I just want a number one at country radio, and now you have four,” Neal stated. “Which has been so cool to just watch you rise up and succeed so, thank you for coming back and doing this again, we are so happy to have you.”

After the short interview, Brown performed his biggest hits starting off with “What Ifs” and going right into his current single at country radio, “Homesick”. Before singing “Homesick” he explained the song was inspired by him being away from home and missing his wife, his dogs, and his family and friends. “After I wrote it I was trying to think of other people who could relate to the song, the first people that popped in my head was the military if y’all know anybody that are serving for us, if y’all are serving for us, I love you all, and thank you all for everything that you do.” The singer-songwriter engaged with the studio audience of winners asking them how they were feeling and talked about his beer of choice, Bud Light, which he was drinking during his performance.

He continued with his other number one hits including “Good As You”, “Lose It” and closed with a perfect rendition of “Heaven” where Brown encouraged the studio audience to sing along during the chorus. For fans who missed out, you can head Northwell Health at Jones Beach next Friday night (September 6th) to catch Kane Brown in his role as direct support for Jason Aldean on the Ride All Night Tour.

New York’s Country 94.7 Kick Off to Summer with Russell Dickerson

May 28, 2019/in Blog /by Christina Bosch

The perfect way to kick off not only the summer but Memorial Day Weekend is with some cold drinks, a beautiful sunny day and country music. New York’s Country 94.7 and Radio.com hosted its annual summer kick off at Headliner on the Jersey Shore on Friday featuring Jessica Rose, Matt Stell, and Russell Dickerson.

Stell who kicked off the event was also celebrating the release of his brand new EP, Everywhere But On, by taking the stage in New Jersey. Fans of the artists and the radio station came out early to support, grab a drink and listen to the great music. He performed songs from the EP including “Last Habit”, and “Better I Drink” as well as his radio single, “Prayed For You” which is currently climbing the charts. Although it was early, the fans raised their drinks and danced along as Stell covered Kings of Leon’s “Use Somebody” as well as the classic John Michael Montgomery hit “Sold (The Grundy County Auction Incident)”

Next up, Russell Dickerson took the small stage, to bring his high-energy set to the intimate crowd in New Jersey for an afternoon of hits and even revealed a few new songs. Rocking a tie-dye shirt and pink sunglasses, Dickerson danced around the stage performing songs from his debut album, Yours, including “Float”, “Would You Love Me”, and “All Fall Down”.

He played two brand new songs for the New Jersey crowd, “Some Things Never Get Old” and “Something To Dance To”. The afternoon wouldn’t be complete without his latest radio single “Every Little Thing” and the two songs that have reached the top of the charts “Blue Tacoma” and “Yours,”. All three tracks had the crowd singing along. Closing out his set in the most epic way, Dickerson not only climbed the stage but with the help of New York’s Country 94.7 radio personality and morning show host, Kelly Ford, got his shoes off and ran through the crowd, jumping and doing a cannonball into the pool.

Dickerson now heads out on the Very Hot Summer Tour with Dustin Lynch, Rhett Akins, and headliner Thomas Rhett. The tour hits our area on September 20th at the iconic Madison Square Garden. Grab your tickets now.

Keeping the music going, New York City artist and local Nash Next winner, Jessica Rose entertained the crowd next, closing out the afternoon. She performed her songs “One of The Boys”, “Rose Tattoo” and even covered Gretchen Wilson’s “Redneck Woman”. The perfect weather along with the high-energy performances, it was the ultimate way to kick off the weekend.
