Luke Combs has shared his brand new single "Growin' Up and Gettin' Old" to announce the release of his forthcoming "Gettin' Old" album, a companion record to his hit 2022 album "Grown' Up".

"Getting' Old" will be hitting stores on March 24th. Combs had this to say, "This album is about the stage of life I'm in right now. One that I'm sure a lot of us are in, have been through, or will go through.

"It's about coming of age, loving where life is now but at the same time missing how it used to be, continuing to fall for the one you love and loving them no matter what, living in the moment but still wondering how much time you have left, family, friends, being thankful, and leaving a legacy.

Indie rockers The Crystal Casino Band released their new album, "Maryland House," this week and to celebrate we asked guitarist Jarrod Hendricks to tell us about the single "City That Sleeps". Here is the story:

I've had the chorus for "City That Sleeps" written down since either late 2019 or early 2020.

In those areas, and in DC in general, a lot of businesses would be closed or have abbreviated hours compared to big cities around the country. That's what inspired me to think of DC as "the city that sleeps" as opposed to New York City's being "the city that never sleeps." (continue)
