Little Big Town: The Innkeeper

Beloved country quartet Little Big Town ushers in the holiday season with the surprise release of a brand-new Christmas ballad, “The Innkeeper,” available now via MCA Nashville. The heartfelt track arrives as a special gift to fans, blending the group’s signature harmonies with timeless storytelling that captures the spirit of the season. Produced by Little Big Town and mixed and engineered by Gena Johnson at Nashville’s legendary Sound Emporium Studios, “The Innkeeper” is featured on the group’s acclaimed 2024 holiday album The Christmas Record, originally produced by GRAMMY Award-winner Dave Cobb. Written by Karen Fairchild and Jimi Westbrook alongside Nashville icons Dean Dillon and Shelby Lynne, the song reflects themes of welcome, compassion, and the quiet miracles that define Christmas. “We wanted to write something that felt both timeless and deeply personal,” says Karen Fairchild. “The story of the innkeeper is one of humility and grace, and we hope listeners feel that sense of warmth and belonging when they hear it.” The track joins fan favorites from The Christmas Record, including “Glow,” “Holiday,” “Evergreen,” and “Believe in Christmas.” Together, these songs form a seasonal collection that balances joyful celebration with reflective ballads, showcasing the band’s versatility and emotional depth.

Little Big Town Brings The Heat with Carefree Video for "Summer Fever"

Summer may not officially be here but Little Big Town is definitely bringing the heat with their latest video for "Summer Fever," the first release from their upcoming ninth studio album. The roll your windows down and turn up the radio anthem is already our go-to song of the Summer. However, the video just might take it to another level, making you want to immediately head out into the sun and grab the nearest bike for a carefree ride.  Harkening back to that 70s disco era, the foot loose and fancy free video makes Jimi, Karen, Kimberly and Phillip the envy of every person stuck in an office right now. Whether in the pool, on the dance floor, the boardwalk or riding a bike, the fabulous foursome do this tune up right.   "Over and over again on a blown out speaker / Dance in the sand while the sun sets deeper / Got that top back on that Jeep / Got that soundtrack on repeat / Got that one hand on my knee and I want it / Over and over again, catching summer fever /Summer fever, summer fever," they sing in the chorus.  "Summer Fever" is hitting us hard. So sit back, grab a cold one and let Little Big Town take you far away, at least for the next three minutes.   Read the full article

Work hard, and never give up on your dreams, even when nobody else believes they can come true but you. These are not cliches but real tools you need no matter what you do in life to stay focused on your path." ~ Phillip Sweet #quote #quoteoftheday #phillipsweet #winter #hometown #salzburg #lantern #igerssalzburg #igers #igersaustria #nikon #nikondaily #nikond5300 #wruah #my_365 #365photochallenge #justgoshoot #nofilter #moodygrams #artofvisuals #ourplanetdaily #earthfocus #worldtravelbook #passionpassport #purplepassport #1000thingsinaustria #visitsalzburg #instadaily (hier: Getreidegasse)
