Newly-released feature-length biographical documentary film covering the life and work of the Honorable Marvin Arrington, Sr., an Atlanta native and one of the city’s transformative political leaders, is now available on Apple TV, Amazon Prime, and YouTube. The film was produced by independent filmmakers based in Atlanta led by Fulton County Commissioner Marvin Arrington, Jr. and his SWATS Enterprises company. Born in Atlanta in the 1940s, then a segregated, provincial town during Jim Crow, Marvin Arrington, Sr. grew up to help galvanize the city of his birth into the international, cosmopolitan metropolis that it is today. The documentary, Bo Legs, takes viewers on the journey of one man’s love for a city and his visionary work for the city’s eventual transformation. Battling through the blows of racism and meshing with political opponents over the years, Marvin “Bo Legs” Arrington, Sr. not only found his way but made his mark in civic duty and social justice. 

After integrating his law school Marvin Arrington, Sr. served as the longest-running city council president in Atlanta’s history. Working behind the scenes in crafting legislation Arrington built alliances joining black and white communities for urban development, opened the access for women and minorities serving in city government, proposed policies increasing African American businesses in the city and promoted advancement in the city’s transportation, sports, and housing sectors. “By telling his story this film tells the story of Atlanta,” says Adelin Gasana, writer and director of Bo Legs. “No other person’s biography parallels so harmoniously with the successful growth of the city of Atlanta than Marvin Arrington, Sr.”

The documentary film features a stellar lineup of influential Atlanta leaders helping to narrate Arrington’s impactful story over the past four decades. Such notable figures include: Ambassador Andrew Young, Mayor Shirley Franklin, Governor Roy Barnes, Federal Judge Clarence Cooper, Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, TV News Anchor Monica Kaufman Pearson, and Mayor Kasim Reed. Bo Legs appeared in six film festivals–premiering at the Bronze Lens Film Festival–and ran for six months on Delta Air Lines’ In-Flight Entertainment.

Easton Corbin Continues to Shine With His New Album ‘Let’s Do Country Right’, Available Today

Easton Corbin Continues to Shine With His New Album ‘Let’s Do Country Right’, Available Today

Chart-topping recording artist Easton Corbin drops his highly anticipated full-length album Let’s Do Country Right today via Stone Country Records. Produced by Wade Kirby and Derek George, the 14-track compilation features Corbin’s traditional country sound with steel guitar and down-home lyrics reminiscent of classic jukebox tunes. The platinum-selling singer-songwriter continues to serenade fans with his latest “love anthem” (People) “Marry That Girl” that’s proven to be a fan favorite as it’s already surpassed over 40 million streams collectively. The swoon-worthy track will be the first single on the project and is expected to reach radio airwaves on Feb. 13, just in time for Valentine’s Day.

Listen to Let’s Do Country Right HERE.

“I’m so excited to have a full-length studio album coming out with Stone Country Records. After I signed with them last year, we immediately got to work on this project,” shares Corbin. “What I love most about this record is that I had a chance to get back to my roots and make the true traditional country music that made me want to do this for a living. I’m really looking forward to hearing what the fans think and can’t wait to have them singing along to these new songs on the road.” 

The hit-maker partnered up to continue the “celebration of ‘country gold’ classics” (Billboard), with esteemed songwriters including Rhett Akins, Ashley Gorley, Dallas Davidson, Adam Craig, Rodney Clawson, Shane Minor and more to bring this project to life. Though Corbin continues to bear his red dirt soul with “Somebody’s Gotta Be Country”, pays homage to a few of his musical heroes in “Hey Merle” and showcases “vibrant guitar lines and steady drumbeats” (Taste of Country) in “I Can’t Decide” – he claims one of the outside cuts on the project, “In It” is his “favorite new song to sing.”

Though Corbin’s been hard at work on this album, 2022 was a highly successful year for the artist. Last year, the country chart-topper signed with Stone Country Records, a label venture led by industry veterans Benny Brown, Paul Brown, and Jason Sellers and immediately got to work preparing for this album. Corbin, who “sounds like an effortless blend of traditionalism and contemporary country” (American Songwriter), had one goal in mind – staying true to country music. 

Track Listing: 

  1. Hey Merle 
  2. I Can’t Decide
  3. Marry That Girl 
  4. Somebody’s Gotta Be Country 
  5. Let’s Do Country Right 
  6. Between You and Me
