Carrie Underwood To Sing Two Black Cadillacs at American Music Awards

Posted on by

Carrie Underwood Debuts New Single “Two Black Cadillacs” at 2012 American Music Awards! On Sunday night, Carrie Underwood will be representing for country music at the 2012 American Music Awards when she debuts her new single, “Two Black Cadillacs“, in what no doubt be a powerfull and stellar performance! The single will start getting airplay on country radio on November 26th. Catch the American Music Awards Sunday, November 18th at 8/7pm central on ABC. “Two Black Cadillacs” is featured on Carrie’s most recent album, Blown Away, which debuted in May. Maybe its just me, but the songs she’s released so far (“Blown Away“, “Good Girl“) seem to be a little darker than her previous single. She has other songs about cheating and hardship, sure, but these seem to have more edge. Maybe its something in the instrumentals? Whatever it is, I love it!

Keith Urban, Little Big Town and Dustin Lynch Tour

Posted on by

Keith Urban, Little Big Town and Dustin Lynch Are Hitting The Road Together In 2013. This morning, Keith Urban announced his 2013 Tour and the dates of the first leg! He did it in a not so usual way, but it was probably the best way he could have ever done it! With his tour mates, Little Big Town and Dustin Lynch, he released a video to get the word out. Let me tell you, IT IS HILARIOUS! It shows the artists jammed into one car, road trippin’ it and singing songs. My favorite part is probably when they give a shout out to Jason Aldean with “1994,” a song from his latest album Night Train. The tour will be making many stops including Cincinnati, Atlanta, Boston, Cleveland, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Baltimore, Dallas, Tampa and many more! The video is below, so y’all get ready to watch and laugh!
