Anyway, all acts performed in the prestigious show were Sam Hunt, Frankie Ballard, Maddie and Tae, Eric Paslay and Cole Swindell. All have enjoyed success in the charts last year, and made sure to repeat those for attendees, which included some of the most powerful executive’s radio.

 

Memorable moments include starter Sam act out the audience for their song "House Party", creating a party atmosphere in effect.

Maddie and Tae proved worthy of continued attention on the heels of his amazing debut single "Girl in a Country Song". His most recent harmonies single "Fly" were just superb. Eric had the crowd rocking with "Song about a Girl", "Friday Night" and others.

Each act was presented with a humorous video clip. For now, Cole Swindell was the most entertaining, with cameos by Martina McBride, Luke Bryan, Jason Aldean and the duo Florida Georgia Line.

Cole Swindell On 'Chillin' It,' And What He Learned From Luke Bryan

It may seem that success has quickly come to Cole Swindell, whose first single "Chillin 'It" is the top list of Billboard Hot Country Songs for a second week, but not overnight success.

Swindell came to Nashville over six years and, like many struggling singer / songwriters, got a job that allowed him to sponge up information about the music industry and make contacts while working on his craft: Sold shirts out on tour for Luke Bryan, and- as Garth Brooks made by Martina McBride, which owes its Merchandise- Bryan Swindell took under his protection, even allowing you to open for him at some point during the 2007-2010 season Swindell in road.



Swindell then signed a publishing deal and started getting their cut by the likes of Bryan, Florida Georgia Line and Scotty McCreery songs. But with the aplomb of good timing "Chillin 'It", I knew I had something special. The song sold over 100,000 copies in iTunes before Swindell even signed to a major label, ultimately, the choice of Warner Music Nashville.

Although Swindell was already experiencing success by itself, a label deal was always the Holy Grail. "I know there have been people who have succeeded remain independent, but has always been a dream for me to be on a label and just the whole team behind me," he says.

Now he is officially slot opening concert tour Bryan and he is putting into practice what you learned from the optimistic Bryan. "He always said, 'just enjoy, and enjoy it." He knows he can be stressful. You dream it and then changing perspective. You are responsible for many things, "said Swindell. He has also tried to learn from loving every minute stage presence Bryan." From the first time I saw him play, long before I moved to Nashville, he was not afraid fun. To me, that's the highest compliment I can get, "He seems to be having the time of your life [on stage], 'cause I'm Luke taught me not to be afraid to be silly.”

Swindell enjoying success "Chillin It", but is happy that his album of the same name is now out so people can see that its range extends the bro-country track hit sensation. "Cole Swindell" debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 last week, behind the "Frozen" soundtrack and fellow star Eric Church "The Outsiders".

"I just knew I had other songs that people relate, not only creepy," he says. "We feel good songs, songs left, we have the true blue ballad in there," said Swindell, referring to "I Just Want You", co-written with Bryan. His next single, "Hope You Get Lonely Tonight" is a call co-written with Florida Georgia Line Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelly and Michael Carter sexy booty.

Swindell grew Bronwood, Ga., A town of about 600. "You cannot imagine what is going on there right now," Swindell his hometown, which celebrates its local boy done well said and his first number 1 as an artist. "My family is enjoying it. They could be enjoying it more than me."

He longs to go home and celebrate, but no time in your schedule for that since he is very busy in opening track Bryan concert tour at this time. In March, "we'll be in the city of Panama in March, and that's only three hours away. Maybe at least I can swing through and hug my mom and my grandmother's neck."

Cole Swindell: Just 'Chillin'' On His Upward Climb To Success

It is rare for a new artist emerging on the music scene with a single that perfectly encapsulates their environment but Cole Swindell is one of those lucky guys who managed to hit a hole in one with his song "Chillin 'It".

The song, released independently in 2013 among his already solid career as a composer (who has written a number of songs for his fellow musician Georgia - and fraternity brother - Luke Bryan and has credits and Florida Georgia Line Scotty McCreery) left an indelible mark on the Nashville community and led to the young singer-songwriter to score a record deal, paving a sweet way for her debut full-length, released this February.



I think "Chillin 'It" not representing me and why we chose it as our first single, "the affable Swindell says with a smile." I will say that there are different sides of my music on that album. It's why you get to make an album - you get to show different sides. But for me, my first single coming out, all the fans out there - I wanted to be introduced to me as' Chillin 'It.' "

There are other songs on the album that have a special meaning for him, however.”The last song on my album, 'The Back Roads and the back row," is a bit my song on which I grew up, how I grew up, how I was raised, "the small hometown South is concerned." And so which can only be a little of me in the drive as the last song, what kind of songs all round. I got there ... everything from the party to the anguish, love songs to this song, this song. It's what brought me to where I am today. "

Go distress are two opposites that Swindell, ironically, knows firsthand all too well. He is experiencing the best party scene of all, while in the summer tour with Bryan: "every night is just crazy," admits the walk with his friend hitmaking. As for anxiety, Swindell unfortunately met when her father died unexpectedly weekend Labor Day last year - only a few months to see the debut album of his son released.

"The [CD] booklet is a mine and my father's picture when I was a small child. He's playing guitar and he was the first person I've heard play guitar or sing. So it was pretty cool to get to spend album with him, "Swindell said.

He says he can choose to remember his father in a future album, too. "Since [his death], I've written a song or two that is definitely touched on. And I'll see if the next album is right for the album or the third, or whatever."

The note of the next album, Swindell admits he is already preparing to think about how you want your second set to get fit. "We have a long time before the album comes out, but it's never too early to start writing and I get to look" he says. "I do not want to go too far off the path a little digs what we did on this first album. - You can throw some different things there, but for the most part, you can keep party songs, break-until songs love songs. All normal stuff! So we'll see. "

When asked what his home state of Georgia that has produced many renowned music artists and varied over the decades is, Swindell only beams and shakes his head.”I wish I knew.'m Very proud to be from Georgia," enthuses. "I've always said that before coming to Nashville, had many successful people. I was like" man I hope they have room for one more before I get there. "I do not know what it is about."

He attributes his state assets by giving some of the necessary grip to make it in Music City. "I'll tell you what, as a child growing up, getting to see people from your area in your state that is kind of you to give a bit of confidence," he says. "Like me to see Lucas - being from a small town like me - it's so great, it was like" maybe I can do this. '"

"So anyway, maybe inspires kids to go after something you normally would not think that is even possible. 'Cause every day I have the opportunity to do this, I cannot believe I'm doing this."
