10/1/21

In celebration of Country Music Month, Amazon Music is bringing new music, livestreaming events and more.

Kicking off today, Walker Hayes and Carin Leon released "Fancy Like (Carin Leon Remix - Amazon Original),” which leads the new Whiskey & Tequila playlist—a blend of regional Mexican and Country music. Fans can also expect more originals from artists like Carly Pearce and Ashley McBryde on 10/8, Kobly Cooper on 10/15 and Ryan Hurd on 10/29.

On 10/12, Reba McEntire will hit the screens of fans for a virtual performance and Q&A on Amazon.com/live following the release of her box set, Revived Remixed Revisited. The Amazon Music Twitch channel will also feature the Group Thread, a weekly live panel on country music talent, as well as the Breakthrough Country Live event to celebrate up-and-comers like Reyna Roberts, Sophia Scott and Ryan Garrett on 10/5.

"For us, every month could be Country Music Month, but today gives us a new opportunity to celebrate the best in the genre with so much new programming, and by giving our country music listeners even more reasons to celebrate," said Emily Cohen, Principal Country Music Curator, Amazon Music.

Additionally, Amazon Music’s Country Heat playlist—which boasts a new look for its programmed content—is racking up listeners and has surpassed 13b streams in the U.S. since it launched in 2016.

Fans can also listen to more country music on playlists like Fresh Country, Breakthrough Country, Texas Forever and more.
