Welcome to The List,
Eli Young Band’s Mike Eli speaks up about the one and ONLY thing he just HATES about the Christmas holiday….the glitter … “I live in a house full of girls and they like glitter and that’s just one of those things that is a part of the holidays. For better or for worse, when glitter starts floating around, I kind of give a little eye roll to Christmas. Because that is the only thing that I don’t like about Christmas is glitter.” Adding, it takes six to seven months before you ever get rid of all of it.

Keep playing these songs.'”

Jackson Dean tells Songwriter Universe magazine that his hit “Don’t Come Lookin’” started from NOTHING literally. The song didn’t have any lyrics at all. It had the stomp and the attitude but no words, as it turns out…it was something he used to say to his mom before he left the house for a couple of days or go out in the woods for a little while. She would say, ‘Stay within earshot or stay alive no matter what occurs.’ I’d go, ‘Momma, if I don’t come back, don’t come looking for me.’ It was one of those where it came together.”
