For Chipotle

Advertising and commercials can be great tools to keep people in the know.  Of course you do have some commercials, like the Forever Lazy, that make you cringe every time it starts to come on.  Or how about that ASPCA commercial where Sarah McLaughlin sings “Angel” while all the sad hurt animals stare at you.  I know that’s enough to bring on the tears in my house.

Anyway, there are some commercials out there that I really do ...

For The Love Of Music

For The Love Of Music

My parents were the type that recorded everything I did as a small child.  When I return home for the holidays they often force me to sit down and watch these ridiculous and shaky home videos, and in almost all of them I am singing or dancing.  Music was obviously an important component in our home.  On my third birthday I was singing White Snake’s “Once Bit Twice Shy” and I kept asking to hear some Bocephus (that’s Hank Williams ...

The Sing-Off Goes Country

The Sing-Off Goes Country

One of the family’s favorite music reality shows to watch is The Sing-Off on NBC.  We have watched our fair share of shows like American Idol and such, but the talent on this show is just unbelievable.  Instead of singing along to music, the groups that perform for a Sony Music contract are all a cappella groups.  They are the music, and it is absolutely incredible to watch popular songs be transformed into amazing music only masterpieces.  Last night’s show was no ...

Enhance Your Life

Enhance Your Life

As musicians, my family always has music of some type playing in the background of everything we do.  Some of us have even picked out songs that are the theme songs of our life.  You know that particular song that you would love to have playing overhead anytime you walk in the door to anyplace, like in the movies? Surely you have thought about your own theme song, and if you haven’t I suggest you do so now.  I ...

Fiddlin’ Friday

Fiddlin’ Friday

Hello and happy Friday to you!  I tell you what, the Hunt family has been incredibly busy recently.  County and state fairs are starting back up, and we have got quite a few shoes that we will be headlining, which we cannot wait for.  I’m taking today to do some relaxing though, and of course I’m listening to some great music while I do it.  There is no reason that you shouldn’t be inspired at all times.  Here’s a look ...

What’s Your Flavor?

What’s Your Flavor?

So, typically I like to focus on country music, but I found something I just had to share with you all.  I’m sure you will enjoy it as much as I did, and it does happen to feature Keith Urban on it, so there is a bit of country for you.  What I found is an infographic that goes by your dad’s music interests to determine what it is that you listen to today.  Infographics are fun, and interactive infographics ...

Hear This: Corey Smith

Hear This:  Corey Smith

In 2004 I heard of this guy who was far too cool for a record label with a country sound.  His name was Corey Smith.  The first time I heard his voice singing out lyrics that were not just catchy but applicable to my life, I was hooked.  I have his albums and I have seen him in concert.  Oh and I forgot to mention, his song “First Dance,” that was the song my husband and I danced to at ...

You Gotta Have a Fiddle in the Band

You Gotta Have a Fiddle in the Band

One of the greatest country music bands of all time has got to be the group Alabama.  In 1980 after playing together for many years prior, the group signed on with RCA. Concerts sold out, number one hits kept coming and the ladies were huge fans too.  So how did this country band become mega stars?  The fiddle, of course!  Okay, so we cannot actually prove that the fiddle was the sole reason that Alabama became sch a household name, ...
