Reba McEntire Performs at Brickyard 400

Posted on by

Reba Plus Other Big Machine Artists Set to Perform at Brickyard 400. Reba McEntire along with fellow Big Machine Label Group artists Rascal Flatts, The Band Perry and others are performing at the 2011 Brickyard 400 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Sunday, July 31st from 9am to shortly after 1pm. Big Machine Records is the presenting sponsor of the race, so it makes complete sense that they would offer up some of their best for the pre-race entertainment. The label’s president, Scott Borchetta, is a long time supporter of racing, and the label actually sponsored the winning car in this year’s Indianapolis 500. Newbie Thomas Rhett kicks off the performances followed by The Band Perry, Brantley Gilbert, and Justin Moore. Reba performs “America the Beautiful” before Rascal Flatts finishes up the performances with their personalized rendition of the national anthem. At the close of the musical performances, Borchetta has the honor of waving the green flag marking the start of the races. This is sure to be a fun Sunday event for racing and country enthusiasts (not always exclusive!) alike!

Guy Clark Releases New Album

Posted on by

Guy Clark Releases Another Masterpiece, “Songs and Stories”! Guy Clark is a living legend and at the age of 69 he is releasing yet another album. “Songs And Stories” was recorded at the Belcourt Theater in Nashville, Tennessee. It is something you don’t see very much, a “story” being a track on an album, but if anyone can pull it off Clark can. The setting was very laid back and intimate, and felt more like he was sitting around a kitchen table at 3 am with some friends. This live album is jam-packed with his previous hits and the kind of stories that you’ve always wanted to hear from a wise man like Clark. Songs And Stories will be released August 16 on Dualtone Music Group. Track Listing 1. Introduction 2. L.A. Freeway 3. Story: Sometimes They Come Easy 4. Maybe I Can Paint Over That 5. Story: Townes’ Road Keets 6. If I Needed You 7. The Cape 8. Homegrown Tomatoes 9. Shawn and Verlon 10. Story: The Legend Of Sis Draper 11. Sis Draper 12. Magnolia Wind 13. Story: I’m From Greasy Bend 14. Darwettia’s Mandolin 15. Story: Hang In There 16. Joe Walker’s Mare 17. A Nod To Rodney Crowell 18. Stuff That Works 19. Out In The Parkin’ Lot 20. Intro: Randall Knife 21. The Randall Knife 22. Curtain Call For The Cast 23. Dublin Blues

Toby Keith Made In America Video

Posted on by

Toby Keith Released His New Music Video For Made In America! Toby Keith is known for his rocking, patriotic tunes and his latest single keeps that familiarity rolling. We first saw “Made In America” on the CMT Awards in June and have been singing along since. Although some might say previous songs like “American Ride” and “Courtesy Of The Red White And Blue” were too brash (I disagree), “Made In America” takes a different turn. It is a song about a man who just seems to have a lot of American pride, and I find nothing wrong with that. The single is now available on iTunes and we hope to see an entire album very soon.

Brad Paisley Remind Me Video

Brad Paisley And Carrie Underwood Debut Remind Me Video! Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood are a great working couple! From hosting award shows to creating an amazing song together, they can do it all! “Remind Me” is a beautiful song and the third successful single from Paisley’s latest album “This Is Country Music” released earlier this summer. The video is very simple, having Paisley and Underwood walking toward each other in a desert. Brad does what he does best, plays the guitar so very well, and Carrie sings her heart out in a killer dress and some amazing shoes!

Ronnie Dunn Cost Of Living Video

Posted on by

Ronnie Dunn Releases The Second Video Of His Solo Career! Ronnie Dunn has “done” it again! His second single “Cost Of Living” is getting tons of airtime and now has an incredible video to go with it. In it, we are introduced to a few people from a Tennessee town with a recently shut down tire plant. It’s a sad, but true story that a lot of Americans are and have been dealing with for a while. With the “Cost Of Living” constantly going up, many are struggling to keep their jobs and others are finding it even more difficult to find one in the first place. The lyrics of this song tell the reality of a man eagerly trying to get hired on a construction crew, I know many companies who would love to have teams full of reliable men like this. I love this song and strongly encourage those of you who haven’t heard it to take a little look! Tags: Cost of Livin’, Ronnie Dunn, Ronnie Dunn Videos

Alan Jackson New Video Long Way To Go

Posted on by

Alan Jackson Has Released His Long Way To Go Video. Alan Jackson has released his latest music video for “Long Way To Go“. The video was directed by Steven Goldmann and was shot at the Square Grouper bar in Jupiter, Florida. Jackson never seems to let us down when it comes to country music mini-movies. This one in particular is full of rain, margaritas, girls in swimsuits, poker, and a mariachi band…what else do you need?! “I guess I’m lucky – we get to shoot in some pretty cool places, whether it’s down on a beach or on a boat or a river or wherever. I’m good friends with the guy that owns the bar, so we thought we’d take the band and go down and shoot there.” – Alan Jackson Tags: Long Way to Go, Alan Jackson, Alan Jackson Videos
