Anna Moon is set to release three singles from her upcoming album on Monument Records today to all digital partners. The three tracks, “XXX,” “Mr. Valentine,” and “Cry” were all co-written by the Atlanta native along with husband, Niko Moon and producer, Jamie Kenney. Moon’s debut album, produced by Kenney, is due out later this year, and features a collection of 12 original songs written by Anna, Kenney and Niko. Her sound reveals her love of jazz and artists like Billie Holiday, yet merges in modern pop and hip-hop on the new project, taking listeners on a ride that’s both graceful and bold.
Kenny Chesney + Songs for the Saints, a one-hour special with breaks built in for NTR opportunities, is available from Blue Chair Records & the WEA team at Warner Music Nashville. In the special Kenny digs into the place that inspires his music, the impact of Hurricanes Irma and Maria in creating this project, and the Love for Love City Fund. The show is free to anyone who airs it between July 27 and August 17, and audio is customizable. With 100% of the proceeds going to benefit the rebuilding of the US and British Virgin Islands, the special not only brings you into Kenny’s world, it makes a difference.
