Tim McGraw's 'Sundown Heaven Town' album will be available on Tuesday (Sept. 16), a fact readers of Taste of Country will hardly miss. The singer has taken over the No. 1 country music news site on the web, agreeing to roll out exclusive interviews and content each day over the next two weeks.
Garth Brooks, ‘People Loving People’ [Listen]
Garth Brooks returns to the radio with ‘People Loving People,’ a song that aims to do much more than just add new color to a painting country fans know all too well. The legend’s first single in seven years provides a simple country answer to the world’s larger problems.

Trisha Yearwood (Feat. Kelly Clarkson), ‘PrizeFighter’ [Listen]
Trisha Yearwood’s ‘PrizeFighter’ is her first single in six years, and admittedly she had some catching up to do as far as recording and promoting new music in a digital world. Empowering songs that feature two of the top country vocalists of all time always win -- that's something she learned decades ago.
Blake Shelton, ‘Neon Light’ [Listen]
Blake Shelton dances with revenge during ‘Neon Light,’ the first single from the upcoming ‘Bringing Back the Sunshine’ album. Shelton’s heavy chill drives this bluesy country anthem forward. It’s about as mean as he’s ever been.
Chris Young, ‘Lonely Eyes’ [Listen]
Chris Young’s new song ‘Lonely Eyes’ is sneaky. At first, his story and familiar shuffle are easy to dismiss as just another fine croon from the 29-year-old. But listen closer.
Win a Trip to Party With WE Fest Artist Brad Paisley in Las Vegas!
When Brad Paisley's new 'Moonshine in the Trunk' album drops, it's going to be a party. No, seriously -- it's going to be a big party in Las Vegas, and the 'River Bank' singer wants you there! Enter here to win a flyaway for two to see Paisley during a private pool party at the Cosmopolitan.
Jason Aldean, ‘Burnin’ It Down’ [Listen]
‘Burnin’ It Down,’ the sexy new track from Jason Aldean’s next album, is sewn from familiar seeds but cultivated beneath a different kind of sunshine. The song pushes the singer further into hip-hop and R&B than ever before but still fits neatly within the brand he’s created over the last decade.

Plus, one person will take home an autographed guitar!
Justin Moore (Feat. Vince Neil), ‘Home Sweet Home’ [Listen]
Like the many before it, Justin Moore’s cover of Motley Crue’s ‘Home Sweet Home’ stays true to the original. The country singer’s down-home roots give the song (slightly) new meaning. In fact, the classic rock track fits in nicely with today’s Nashville sound.
Win a Guitar Signed by Kenny Chesney!
Kenny Chesney wants to thank Taste of Country readers for making his new single 'American Kids' one of the hottest of his career. Enter here for your chance to win an acoustic guitar, autographed by the superstar.
Rascal Flatts, ‘Payback’ [Listen]
Rascal Flatts' ‘Payback’ is the catchiest song the group has released since ‘Me and My Gang.’ Fans will find grains of this hook stuck to them for days after a single listen. Like sand at the beach, you just can’t get away from the trio’s latest cut from ‘Rewind.’
