Country stars react to Mindy McCready’s suicide

Lydia Picknell — Mon, 18 Feb 2013 15:57:32 +0000

It’s been a tragic twenty-four hours for the country music community after learning about the passing of singer Mindy McCready. The “Ten Thousand Angels” artist was found dead from an apparent suicide last night in Arkansas. Mindy was 37 years old and leaves behind a six year old and a nine-year old son.

See what some of country’s brightest stars had to share about the sad news:

Oak Ridge Boys: We sang “Farther Along” last night in honor of Mindy McCready. One day we will know!!!!!

John Rich: Very sad to hear about Mindy McCready. When I was in Lonestar she was our label mate and we were friends. A tragic end to a talented life.

Jana Kramer: So sad to hear about the loss of Mindy. What an insanely talented woman.

Michelle Wright: As you may know Mindy McCready has passed on. She was a young promising country music artist in the mid ’90′s but faced a number of challenges and I’m so sad that she lost the battle with addiction and mental illness which can also cause depression. I’ve been sober now for several years and I know how hard it can be sometimes. RIP Mindy.

Jimmy Wayne: RIP @mindymccready We met 14 years ago @ Acuff & Rose. Who’d thought 14 years later on this day…. #why

Jason Blaine: Sad to hear about the passing of Mindy McCready. Thoughts & prayers for her young children. Tragic situation.

Carrie Underwood: I grew up listening to Mindy McCready… so sad for her family tonight. Many prayers are going out to them…

See more reactions below:

THE FARM‘s Damien Horne: Prayers go out to Mindy McCready’s family and friends.. She will live on thru her family, friends, fans, and her music~ dh#gonetoosoon

Darius Rucker: My love and prayers go out to Mindy Mccreedy’s family

George Canyon: Sad to hear about the passing of Mindy McCready. My heart goes out to her dear children, family and friends. She made beautiful music and will be missed.

Whitney Duncan: I just saw the news of Mindy McCready. So so tragic. She had a song of mine on her last record “by her side”. Loved her music growing up.

Jason Aldean: Just heard about Mindy McCready. My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

Wynonna Judd: Oh my! Mindy. Dear sweet girl. This is so sad. It just breaks my heart what addiction continues to take from this life.

Jerrod Niemann: Hate hearing about anyone committing suicide. May Mindy McCready rest in peace… #sosad

Jerrod Niemann Releases Only God Could Love You More

Lydia Picknell — Tue, 23 Oct 2012 14:50:35 +0000

Jerrod Niemann has finally released a brand new single from his new album “Free The Music” this week. The singer-songwriter’s new single “Only God Could Love You More” earned him a standing ovation last week on the Blake Shelton Cruise. He was one of the many talented performers who headlined in the main theater with two shows over seven nights. Jerrod’s show included a full band including a 3-piece horn section, helping him stand out from the dozens of others performing on the ship. Stay tuned to Keepin’ it Country all week long for a look back on what happened on the Cruise.

The single is a co-write by Jerrod with Joe Stone and Lee Brice. About the single, Jerrod shares:

“Everyone who has heard the album, this is always the song they bring up. We didn’t put any harmonies on it and used my original tracking vocal. ‘Lover, Lover’ [Niemann’s breakthrough #1 smash] had a bunch of harmony parts, so I thought it’d be a nice change to have zero here, especially with the French horns and the other orchestral things we have going on.”

Check out a video of the single’s studio version below and let us know what you think – will it be a huge hit for Jerrod? His new record “Free The Music” is in stores right now!
