With her second single, 'Whiskey,' Jana Kramer proves the vulnerability she showed on 'Why Ya Wanna' was no fluke. It's tough to turn away from her hurt, which on this song is aided by a tight lyric and sensible mix of pop and traditional country styling.
Jana Kramer and Brantley Gilbert walked the red carpet at the 2012 CMA Awards separately, but that doesn't mean their young romance has fizzled. The 'Why Ya Wanna' singer says she and Gilbert are still hanging out, but stopped herself before putting a label on the relationship.
Jana Kramer is enjoying life to the fullest these days — especially in her career. This week, Kramer’s current single, ‘Why Ya Wanna,’ has been certified gold for digital downloads exceeding 500,000 copies sold. The tune is the latest release from Kramer’s self-titled debut album on Warner Music Nashville, which debuted at No. 5 the week after it hit stores.
Jana Kramer is just now making herself known on the country music scene, but the 28-year-old actress — known for her work on ‘One Tree Hill’ — says that music was always something that filled her heart.
It’s almost as if Jana Kramer‘s ‘Why Ya Wanna’ lyrics were written especially for her, as she has said many times that she has lived every single word of the song. But at the time it was penned, songwriters Ashley Gorley, Catt Gravitt and Chris DeStefano were just getting together for their first tiple co-write to see what kind of magic they could create next.
Actress/songstress Jana Kramer recently debuted the music video for her country single ‘Why Ya Wanna,’ which she released to country radio mid-January 2011. The ‘One Tree Hill’ star saw her single break a record, too, as it was playlisted by more than 55 radio stations nationwide — more than any other debut artists has seen since the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart came into existence.
