Amanda McCarthy Drops Hilariously Honest New Single “LOL WTF”

Nashville, TN (January 23, 2026) – Pop-centered singer/songwriter Amanda McCarthy is officially inviting listeners into her wildly relatable world with the release of her brand new single, LOL WTF,” out now on all streaming platforms. Dialing her signature wit up to eleven, McCarthy transforms life’s most absurd, unbelievable moments into a sharp, self-aware anthem that proves sometimes all you can do is laugh.


“LOL WTF” reads like a soundtrack to an indie film: funny, tragic, chaotic, and painfully real. McCarthy skewers her own misfortune with references to dirty laundry and unexpected plot twists, creating a shared language for laughing through the madness rather than being consumed by it.
 

Blending the nostalgic charm of Wilson Phillips with the modern storytelling edge of Taylor Swift, “LOL WTF” feels both timeless and unmistakably current. With unforgettable lines like “If this is how my movie ends, I’m firing the writers” and the instant-hook chorus “LOL, what the f**k, I can’t make this sh*up,” the song plays like a pop confessional wrapped in perfect comedic timing. It’s bold, honest, and refreshingly unfiltered, making it the ultimate anthem for anyone who’s ever looked at their own life and wondered how it could possibly be real.
 

Written in Nashville with Kristian Veech and Eitan Snyder (Lucky Money Writer Management) and produced by Kristian Veech, “LOL WTF” had already taken on a life of its own long before its official release. The song became a fan favorite years ago, so much so that McCarthy’s devoted fanbase secretly launched a crowdfunding campaign after she admitted she never planned to record it. Once she discovered what they had done, she joined in and the song was fully funded in under 24 hours, proving just how deeply this track resonated with her community.
 

The single arrives just weeks ahead of McCarthy’s highly anticipated sophomore full-length album, ‘Looking For The Light,’ set for release on February 6 and currently available for pre-save. The 11-track project captures the highs, lows, humor, and healing that come with confronting the past and choosing growth. While rooted in pop, the album showcases her genre-blending versatility: Nashville influence on tracks like “Vodka” and “Every Bar Downtown,” pop-punk energy on “I’m Not Fine (But I’m Okay),” and reflective maturity on closing songs “The Last Word” and “Waste of a Heartbreak.” Rich harmonies, poetic lyricism, and emotional depth highlight her evolution as both a writer and artist.
 

Looking For The Light encapsulates leaving the most triumphant era of your life to thrive, crash, burn, and thrive again in a new city while battling undiagnosed ADHD and years of unprocessed trauma,” McCarthy shares. “We are embracing the good, the bad, and the LOL WTF. We’re choosing forgiveness over anger, peace over revenge, and connection over alienation.

About Amanda McCarthy:
Most people don’t plan to drop out of college, become a parent before 21, and move to a new city during a pandemic, but Amanda McCarthy has always faced the unexpected head-on. From coffee shops and smoky bars to iconic stages like The Bluebird Cafe, The Listening Room, Mercury Lounge, and Hard Rock Cafes nationwide, she has built a full-time career on fearless storytelling and relentless hustle.
 

After developing her early career in New England, McCarthy credits an unforgettable moment—singing an Aerosmith song directly to Steven Tyler in a local bar—as the catalyst that pushed her to move to Nashville. Less than a year after relocating, she had already made music her full-time career.
 

Blending the pop/rock edge of Michelle Branch with the country-but-not-country cadence of Kacey Musgraves and harmony-driven acoustic storytelling, McCarthy has shared stages with artists including Steven Tyler, Hunter HayesTrainNatasha BedingfieldHall & OatesImagine DragonsStyxRob Thomas, and more. She has performed for NASCAR, delivered a nationally televised National Anthem on ESPN, earned Grammyballot entries, and received numerous awards, including Singer/Songwriter of the Year at the New England Music Awards.

Her debut album Road Trip’ (2019) was met with high acclaim and she is set to release her sophomore full-length, Looking For The Light,’ on February 6.

Equal parts sass and seasonal cheer, “Christmas Miss Me” blends classic Christmas charm with bold, modern confidence, reminding listeners that sometimes the best gift you can give yourself is closure. With cheeky lyrics such as, “I returned those gifts I got for you and bought a dress, no it won’t be a silent night ’cause baby I confess, I’ll be rocking around the Xmas tree but it ain’t gonna be with you,” the song captures Jacquie’s signature fire while delivering a message of hope: heartbreak doesn’t stand a chance when you remember who you are.


“The holidays have a way of cranking your emotions up to a hundred,” Jacquie shares. “I wrote ‘Christmas Miss Me’ to say: go ahead, cry for a minute…but then fix your hair, put on that dress, and remember you’re the gift. The season can still be merry, and so can you.”


With “Christmas Miss Me,” Jacquie Roar reminds us that even the chill of winter can’t dim the glow of a woman who knows her worth.

Nashville, TN (November 25, 2025) — Internationally renowned criminal behavioral analyst Laura Richards has been awarded the Doctor of Laws (Honoris Causa)from The University of Law in London, recognizing her extraordinary professional achievements and her tireless commitment to social justice. The University of Law is one of the UK’s most established providers of legal education and professional training, with a longstanding commitment to advancing justice, public protection, and excellence in law and criminology.

The award highlights Richards’ decades-long mission to transform how the criminal justice system identifies, assesses, and responds to dangerous offenders. Her evidence-based work has reshaped legislation, protected victims, and set new global standards for public safety.

Richards’ pioneering contributions include driving transformative reforms in stalking and coercive control law, creating widely adopted risk-assessment models, advising major police bodies, and founding Paladin, the world’s first National Stalking Advocacy Service. Her work continues to empower survivors, influence policy, and inspire cultural change across generations.

Presenting the award, Dr. John Kerr, Head of Policing and Criminology at The University of Law, said:

“Her career reflects a consistent commitment to applying analytical rigour to real-world problems, bridging the gap between behavioural science and practical law enforcement. Today, we recognise her outstanding professional achievements. For her tireless commitment to social justice, Vice Chancellor, it is my great pleasure to present Laura Richards for the award of Doctor of Laws, Honoris Causa.”

Richards expressed her gratitude, saying:

“Thank you to the University of Law for this award. I am deeply humbled to receive this honorary doctorate recognizing my professional achievements and tireless commitment to social justice. It’s been a long journey and I am only just getting started. This recognition is not mine alone. It belongs to every victim and family member who has shared their story with me and every professional who stood with me and refused to accept it was just ‘a domestic’ or ‘low-level nuisance behavior.’

I also want to acknowledge my extraordinary colleagues and mentors, campaigners and survivors who have walked beside me. And to every listener of the Crime Analyst podcast who has taken action to amplify victims’ voices and let legislators know that women matter — thank you. Change doesn’t happen by chance — it happens by choice and by us using and amplifying our voices. Together we can change and save lives. There is no greater honor than that.”

This honorary doctorate not only recognizes Richards’ global expertise, but also celebrates her relentless commitment to protecting women and children: work that continues to influence law, policy, and public understanding across multiple countries. Her ongoing efforts include advocating for coercive control legislation in the United States and Australia, as well as reforms to ensure serial domestic abusers and stalkers are proactively identified, assessed, and managed by criminal justice agencies.

Her 2020 debut album ‘Hollywood Gypsy’ was named BBC Radio 2’s Album of the Week, while her most recent release, the expansive 22-track Something We Used to Say, was hailed by NPR as one of the best albums of November 2024. Since relocating to Nashville, Twinnie has made her Grand Ole Opry debut, appeared on U.S. radio and television, and released her U.S. label debut EP ‘Welcome to the Club,’ which has surpassed 24 million streams.

In 2023, her single “Bad Man” charted on U.S. Country Radio, further solidifying her place in the American country-pop landscape. In June 2025, CMT debuted the music video for Twinnie’s hit song “Back to Jack” on the Paramount+ billboard in Times Square. The song is currently in rotation across CMT channels, including CMT Equal Play on PlutoTV, and was featured on the coveted CMT Spotify and Apple Music playlists, highlighting Twinnie as one of today’s standout country artists.
 

A dynamic performer, Twinnie has shared the stage with major headliners including Sheryl Crow, Lainey Wilson, and Chase Rice. In October 2024, she made history as the first British artist to sing the U.S. National Anthem at GEODIS Park in Nashville and was named one of CMT’s Next Women of Country. She closed out the year with a sold-out UK headline tour and is set to appear at major festivals in 2025, while continuing her UK and U.S. tour dates.

Her new music follows a string of major career milestones for the British-born artist, including her U.S. arena debut in Las Vegas and standout performances at England’s iconic Glastonbury Festival. Earlier this month, Fort Nash named Twinnie among the “Six Women That Deserve to Be Played on Country Radio,” and she will soon be featured in an upcoming BBC documentary alongside Dolly Parton, Lainey Wilson, and Chris Stapleton.

Beyond her work as a recording artist, Twinnie is a gifted songwriter with credits for global icons such as Kylie Minogue, Bryan Adams, The Shires, and Lvndscape. She is also an award-winning creative director, earning Best Short Film at the British Short Film Awards, and expanded her acting career in 2024 by joining the cast of the long-running British soap opera Emmerdale.

A passionate philanthropist and mental health advocate, Twinnie is the founder of I Know A Woman, a non-profit initiative that helped secure standardized therapy access in label and publishing deals during the pandemic—a contribution recognized by Forbes.

Most recently, Twinnie partnered with Musicians On Call to bring joy and healing through music to patients at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt. The singer, songwriter, and actress performed a live set at Seacrest Studios, treating patients and their families to an intimate Q&A session and meet-and-greet. Her performance was broadcast across all 12 Seacrest Studios locations, allowing children in pediatric hospitals across the country to share in the uplifting experience.

With over 30 million organic streams, a rapidly growing global fanbase, and a fearless drive to amplify underrepresented voices, Twinnie continues to redefine what it means to be a modern artist on her own terms.

About Byrdie Wilson:
Born in New York and raised in South Carolina from the age of four, Byrdie Wilson’s journey to Nashville has been marked by resilience. Born with a cleft palate, she underwent several surgeries and, with extensive care, overcame the associated challenges.Wilson’s passion for music became evident early on. At six years old, she signed herself up for a talent show, confidently telling her family she was “going to be someone!” She honed her vocal skills with coaches Celeste Simone and American Idol coach Michael Orland, and worked with musician Rob Arthur of the Peter Frampton Band to produce her first songs in 2018.

After a brief hiatus in 2019 and 2020, Wilson resumed songwriting following her boyfriend’s tragic death in November 2020. She has since become an advocate for mental health and suicide prevention, working closely with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) to raise awareness and support those affected by loss and mental health struggles.

At 19, Wilson moved to Nashville, where her single “Broadway” gained traction on TikTok, amassing over 49K views and 17K streams on Spotify. Her subsequent single, “Where My Roots Run,” released in November 2023, further cemented her presence in the country music scene. She continued to make waves with the release of her sassy single “Keep On Truckin” in July 2024, “Out the Bottle” in September 2024, and “Over Me” in June 2025.

Wilson is also a proud ambassador for Operation Smile, a global nonprofit that provides free cleft palate and cleft lip surgeries to children in need. As someone born with a cleft palate herself, Byrdie uses her platform to inspire others and support life-changing medical care for children around the world.

With over 800K streams on Spotify, Byrdie Wilson’s music continues to resonate with fans across the country—showcasing her heartfelt, authentic, and increasingly dynamic artistry.
