Luke Combs new hit song ‘Fast Car’ is at the top of the charts AND has been number one on the Top Kix At 6…But Luke says it took him a long time to learn how to play it on his guitar… “It took me months to be able to play it and then to be able to play it and sing it took even more time you know? And so I always would just kind of cover that in my bar gigs and people just loved it as much as I loved it. You know?” Adding that the song was way more advanced on guitar than he was when he learned it.

Jordan Davis was caught sleeping backstage at a Dierks Bentley concert. Someone posted the video on Instagram. Jordan captioned it with, ”Never get tired of Dierks Bentley set this summer….”

Sometimes it’s best to run new material in front of someone before you commit to it..it could be your kids…or in Jon Pardi’s case he tells CMT; his wife…Saying Summer is a great barometer on whether a song is good or not.  She pulls no punches if she doesn’t like a song and why. You need that kind of honesty in this business.

The List for Monday, April 6th 2026

Welcome to The List,

WKRP is finally becoming a real thing after 48 years, and radio people everywhere just felt a chill. The legendary sitcom made Cincinnati famous without even having a real station. Now the actual call letters are being sold, and someone’s bringing WKRP home. Somewhere, turkeys are nervous and DJs are smiling.

Carrie Underwood says the secret to staying sane in fame is faith. She says the industry can make everything about you real fast. Faith keeps her grounded when everything else is trying to lift her too high. So basically, humility is her real number one hit.

-----

Zach Top says a bad round of golf can wreck his whole mood, which feels very relatable. Instead of throwing clubs, he writes songs about it like a classy human. Turns out his sadness already had a soundtrack, his own song “Between the Ditches.” Nothing like turning a bogey into a ballad.

-----

Britney Spears’ life is still headed to the big screen, even with recent drama swirling around her. Universal says they’re in it for the long haul and ready to tell the full story. Apparently, that includes love life chaos, music fame, and everything in between. Somewhere, Justin Timberlake is allegedly pacing and stress-eating popcorn.
