Today the RIAA introduced a new rule that streaming content would be counted in the process of awarding Gold and Platinum certification, not just digital or physical sales alone. Last year ‘(Kissed You) Good Night’ was awarded Gold status for selling over 500,000 copies of the single. The music video on YouTube has over 5,000,000 views (and this is not counting other streaming sites such as CMT.com, Spotify, etc). Could we see Gloriana be awarded their first platinum single? With these new rules, it seems like a possibility. They count …

“Gloriana recently stopped by the Academy of Country Music offices to present ACM Lifting Lives, the charitable arm of the Academy, with a $10,000 donation. The band was the featured performer at Brides magazine’s “Live Wedding” last month. As the featured performer of this event, Gloriana was given the opportunity to donate to their favorite charity and they selected ACM Lifting Lives.” [Source]

For the past two weeks I have been sending out a tweet on Monday nights to try and help Dancing With The Stars take notice to Gloriana. They won’t listen to my single tweet, which is where you fans come in. Every Monday, QUOTE RT my tweet that I post around 8:30pm EST. A simple RT will not be noticed as quickly. Even if they choose their performers weeks in advance, it can’t hurt anything to try. Make sure you’re following us on Twitter.

After going through a well-publicized personnel change, 2012 saw the trio Gloriana more focused than ever, and the resulting factor was a year to remember.
Their single “(Kissed You) Good Night,” peaked at No. 2 on the Hot Country Songs chart, and also ranked as the No. 5 song on the 2012 year-end list. In addition, their “A Thousand Miles Left Behind” set debuted at No. 2 on the Country Albums chart. Throw in the thousands of people Gloriana played for into the story, and member Tom Gossin says it was …

For those who tuned into the AFC Game last night and had no idea who Gloriana was, they sure do now. In fact, CBS Sports named them as one of the winners of the game for their performance – and their ability to make Ray Lewis thank the ‘Father’ more than once. Miss the National Anthem, been under a rock? Click here to watch their AMAZING rendition.
“Gloriana: I’ve never heard of this country band, but its rendition of the National Anthem before the game made Lewis do this with his …

Today Billboard announced that it would be changing the rules regarding placement on their Country charts. Instead of just taking into consideration radio play (which it now counts all stations for placement, not just country…), it is now counting digital sales and hits off of Spotify. Because of this sudden change, Taylor Swift’s ‘We Are Never’, which is undeniably pop, is now #1, with her unreleased-to-radio single ‘Red’ following behind it. Won’t Swift ALWAYS be #1 now? What does that mean for Gloriana, Lady A, TBP? I don’t exactly know. …

Gloriana‘s ‘Can’t Shake You’ lyrics and melody fit together like a hand and glove. However, that reality was almost not realized. Hit songwriter James T. Slater had the piano melody in his back pocket for nearly a year, but never found the perfect word marriage until he linked up with Gloriana’s Tom Gossin and fellow songwriter Stephanie Bentley.
“I was playing that [piano melody] for like six months to a year,” Slater explains to Taste of Country of putting ‘Can’t Shake You’ together. “I had already written another song. I had …

Saturday Night Live, the famous sketch show on NBC, is opening up their mail bag and asking fans to send them suggestions on who they would like to see as a musical guest and host on future episodes.
