George Strait has achieved something no other artist in history has done.
'Whatever She's Got' represents a new sound -- and new look -- for David Nail. The 'Let It Rain' singer previously relied on a strong voice and bittersweet lyrics to work songs up the charts. The new track is pop-friendly and not nearly as deep.
Blake Shelton will return to the living rooms of millions for a fifth season of NBC's popular reality singing competition, 'The Voice.' Viewers can rest assured that the comedic country crooner will be sitting back in that big red chair, offering his humor and wisdom to contestant hopefuls come fall.
Monday's (May 20) devastating tornado in Moore, Okla. touched the hearts of country music's biggest stars, and more than a few were left worrying about friends and family they knew in the area. The state is home to some of the biggest names in country music -- Carrie Underwood, Garth Brooks, Toby Keith, Vince Gill and Blake Shelton are just a few who have roots there, with one superstar having grown up in Moore.
They say specificity is the soul of narrative, which would mean Kree Harrison's first post-'Idol' single 'All Cried Out' lacks soul, or narrative. The ballad is a showcase for her vocal range and power, but it's never made clear why the Texan is so bummed.
Country superstar Toby Keith called in to Anderson Cooper's talk show on CNN Monday night (May 20) to talk about the deadly tornado that struck his hometown of Moore, Okla. earlier in the day.
Some are calling Kellie Pickler's freestyle during Monday night's performance finale on 'Dancing With the Stars' the best dance of the ABC show's 16 seasons. It was a spellbinding performance capable of leaving the toughest hearts shattered to pieces.
If you've seen Eric Church lately, you may have noticed that he's grown his beard out a little bit more than usual. That's not because he's gotten lazy abut shaving -- it turns out the beard is part of the musician's process for his next album.
Jessta James grew up country, but not in a country household. There was no uncle who played guitar, or family friend who knew a guy who knew a guy who knew a producer in Nashville to help guide his fledgling music career. His hometown, Bozeman, Mont., isn't exactly a pipeline for fresh talent -- in fact, James admits he's usually the first country singer fans have ever met from Montana. In a backwards, heartbreaking sort of way, James' success was inspired his brother.
Billy Currington's smooth voice makes his latest song sound totally original. But there are actually three songwriters behind the 'Hey Girl' lyrics -- the first single from an album that Currington promises to release this summer.
Don't let Trace Adkins' subdued reaction to winning 'All-Star Celebrity Apprentice' fool you. The singer signed up to win this season, and not just because he wanted to help the American Red Cross. Adkins' 2008 loss to Piers Morgan hasn't sat well with him in the five years since, and he needed to get that taste out of his mouth.
