Rebecca Lynn Howard stormed into country music with “Forgive,” a powerhouse ballad that turned heads and proved her voice was the real deal. Not long after, Trisha Yearwood heard her play a song and asked to cut it on the spot—years later, they’d co-write Trisha’s latest single, “Girls Night In.”

Rebecca went on to form The Loving Mary Band, which became Steven Tyler’s personal band—showing she could crush it in any genre, on any stage.

But behind the music was a deeper journey: grieving her father, reclaiming her health, and coming back stronger than ever. Her new album, “I’m Not Who You Think I Am,” is raw, real, and full of hard-won truth. This is Rebecca—bold, honest, and completely unforgettable.

Brandon and Tripp of Lanco are back to answer some pretty tough questions! Some of them include: If you could be famous for something, what would you want it to be? What's something you worked really hard at recently? What's something you think people assume about you when they first meet you? Who in your life has had a bigger impact on you than they probably know?

After bursting onto the scene in 2017 with their breakout debut album Hallelujah Nights, and 5X Platinum hit Greatest Love Story, Lanco rocketed to country music stardom. Fueled by chart-topping hits and infectious energy, they found themselves living at the top of the game—touring nationwide, appearing on late-night shows, and rubbing shoulders with celebrity friends. It was a whirlwind of success, and for a while, it seemed like nothing could slow them down. But life has a way of shifting the spotlight.

In the years since their debut, the band faced the quiet that follows the noise. The fame faded into reflection, and instead of chasing the next big thing, they regrouped. The members of Lanco—now all fathers—took a step back and started asking deeper questions: What does success really mean? What kind of legacy do we want to leave? Their long-awaited second album, We’re Gonna Make It, is the raw and redemptive product of that soul-searching journey. It’s a record rich with perspective—an honest reflection on family, faith, failure, and the fight to stay grounded in a world that constantly pulls you off your feet.

We’re Gonna Make It is the sound of a band that’s grown up, gotten real, and finally found what matters most.

Iam Tongi joined Caroline for this bonus episode of Get Real to answer some deep questions! Some of them include: If you don't worry about consequences or what other people thought, what's something you would love to do? When was a recent moment when you felt deeply happy? What's a message you wish you could deliver to someone?

Iam Tongi is the Hawaiian kid who broke everyone on American Idol Season 23. He showed up heartbroken—his dad had just passed 3 months before. Music was always their thing. He almost quit completely. But his mom secretly signed him up for Idol anyway.

Then he sang “Monsters”… and the world felt it. That was the moment. He won Season 23, but losing his dad forced him to find his own voice, live, on television. When his guitar broke during Hollywood Week, he knew—this was his dad telling him he could do it on his own. 

Now? He just dropped “Unbreak My Heart,” plus “Sunshine” that he wrote for his mom, performed at the Opry, CMA Fest, even has a track in Lilo & Stitch, plus an album in the works… All while losing 110 pounds, still grieving, still growing—and singing from a place only he can. Iam Tongi is a true inspiration, lifting hearts around the world with his voice and story.

Naomi Johnson joins Caroline for this bonus episode of Get Real. Naomi answers some deep questions, including: If you could be famous for something, what would you want it to be? What's a gift someone gave you that you'll never forget? If you could make one wish come true for someone else, what would it be?

Naomi grew up off the grid—one of 11 kids living in a converted school bus, traveling the country, and even spending time in a cult. She learned guitar as a child, playing at gas stations to help her family afford life on the road. Now a wife and mother, Naomi is opening up about the full truth of her past—and the moment that changed everything. After nearly dying during childbirth, she gained a profound new perspective on life. That experience sparked a deep inner shift, awakening a fierce feminine strength and emotional clarity that flows through her latest work. Her new songs, “Bricks Make Houses” and “Mama Ain’t Jesus,” are her most honest yet—music that embraces both the pain and the beauty of the road that led her here.
