August 24, 2016

Today's Guest: Amy Rose, country singer, "Put A Lime In It," "Show Up Naked and Bring Beer," "Party Like A Redneck (Redneck Reunion)" Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience full of Grand Ol’ Opry fans sipping complimentary Seagram's Escapes Bahama Mamas with a lime in it… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida!  Amy Rose, "Put A Lime In It" Amy Rose may not be the only country music singer to sing songs about drinking and partying, but she’s certainly staking her rising career on them! The first time she was on Mr. Media, in 2012, it was to promote and sing “Party Like A Redneck (Redneck Reunion).” AMY ROSE podcast excerpt: "People just like to relate to songs about beer, let’s face it! Everybody likes beer. Everybody likes beer! The songs are working!" In 2015, she was here commanding us all to “Show Up Naked and Bring Beer”! This time, our favorite performer in all of North America has a new drinking anthem, “Put A Lime In It”! It is her fastest rising single to date and when you hear her sing it here live, you’ll know why. In fact, she will be performing two songs today with guitarist Chris Taggart, so stick around for a little lime and “One Of These Days.” AMY ROSE podcast excerpt: "We do 'Pieces of My Heart' by Janis Joplin in our live show and we do 'Me and Bobby McGee. Everybody loves Janis Joplin." Oh, PS – Amy promised to sponsor my Canadian citizenship if Donald Trump is elected president of the United States. I don’t think I asked, but she was sweet enough to offer! Key interview moments: • 3:53 Country singer Amy Rose talks about her wildly growing success with songs about beer, partying and rednecks; • 17:50 She reveals that her live shows include two Janis Joplin covers, “Me and Bobby McGee” and “Piece of My Heart."
