Brain & Courtlin Chat With Country Singer Hailey Whitters

Late last February, Hailey finally released her highly-anticipated album The Dream. She had lots of plans to tour and play live shows to help promote the album, but 2020 had other plans. Just a few weeks after the album s release, the COVID-19 pandemic took over the world. With live concerts put on hold indefinitely, Hailey had to rely on other avenues, like social media, to spread the word about her new album. Despite this drastic change of plans, Hailey s album caught on. Songs like Ten Year Town, Heartland, and Janice at the Hotel Bar garnered a ton of attention from not only country music fans, but also fellow country artists.

The Best Country Albums of 2020

Like everything else in 2020, country music was full of unexpected moments many of them painful. Even before the coronavirus pandemic started spreading wide in the U.S. and forcing shutdowns, Nashville, Tennessee country music’s epicenter was fighting its own share of battles. A tornado whipped through The Music City the first week of March, causing severe damage to the East Nashville neighborhood, where many country artists live and work. Even when engulfed by damage and sickness, the country community rallied. Even when they lost some of the greatest among them, like John Prine, Kenny Rogers and Charley Pride, country musicians found the strength to stay engaged with fans (if only through livestreams), fight for much-needed change and share some truly stellar records in the process.
