Dennis Banka WUCZ/Carthage, TN
NO. 1 SONG
Tyler Farr’s much more mellow single, “Whiskey in My
Water,” has distilled it’s way through the MusicRow
CountryBreakout Chart to land as this week’s No. 1. Farr’s
previous single, “Redneck Crazy,” mounted the chart in 2013.
Written by Jon Ozier, Phillip LaRue and Farr, the Columbia
Nashville single is the fourth single from Farr’s 2013 debut.
MusicRow’s Robert K. Oermann reviewed the single in
October 2013, noting: “The follow-up single is a groovesoaked love song. As before, his singing voice is a raspy,
soulful listening pleasure.”
Farr is scheduled for appearances all the way until he joins
Jason Aldean’s Burn it Down tour next month (June 2014). Of
those will be next week’s (June 4) performance at the
Nationwide Insurance stage at the CMT Music Awards. • • •
In 1982, I began my radio
career in Panama City, Florida
under Skip Bishop. It was
there, watching Skip, I
learned the responsibility we
have as programmers to play
great songs. Sometimes those
songs come from the majors,
sometimes from a new artist
with no label. To be fair to the
music as a programmer, we
need to listen without
prejudice.
Promoters are key to reminding
us to listen to new songs and
more importantly to go back and listen again. With the
number of songs we receive from artists, labels, promoters,
downloads and CDs, it's easy to miss one. Plus promoters
can share the story of the artist or give me the nudge to
"give it a try.” In my busy week, an occasional "Have you
heard?" can go a long way with me.
