Written by White with Ben Chapman and produced by Jonathan Singleton, “Pound Cake” is a soulful and syrupy groove featuring a baking-heavy metaphor. The lighthearted song shows off White’s fun-loving side and sees the cosmic Country singer spin a story about taking a quick break from doing some baking in the kitchen with a significant other. “Gimme some of that pound cake / So thick and sweet,” he sings. “Some of that pound cake / Bring a man to his knees / There ain’t much more that I can take / Gimme some of that pound cake.”

3Tommy  (C. Thomas) Howell

The simple track truly does lend itself to a perfect lullaby, which is what Howell loves most about it. He says, “You can imagine yourself underneath the starry skies in front of a campfire, with your horse and someone that you really enjoy. And that’s such a peaceful, beautiful space.”

Trace Adkins released his video for “Love Walks Through The Rain” featuring Melissa Etheridge.
“As I have often said, my favorite videos are those that follow the storyline of the song,” Adkins shared with CMT. “This one is no different. The directors, Mike Stryker and Andrew Rozario, did a great job of letting the music tell the story.”

9Runaway June

Runaway June takes the (sleigh) reins in their own gloves and delivers a “Cowboy For Christmas.” The original track written by the ladies of Runaway June (Jennifer Wayne, Natalie Stovall, and Stevie Woodward) alongside writer and producer Paul Sikes is available across all streaming platforms just in time for the holiday season.

“We are so excited about our new Christmas song,” says band member Jennifer Wayne. “I’ve had this idea stirring around in my head since we released our Christmas album a few years ago and was just waiting for the right time and right people to write it with. There is such a beauty and romance in the American West, and we wanted to capture that imagery combined with Christmas spirit.”
