April 8, 2013 Both Showdown competitors today delivered brilliant performances at the ACM Awards on Sunday night (April 7). Little Big Town returns with their new single 'Your Side of the Bed' for a fourth straight Showdown. The quartet's performance was one of the more unique ACM experiences of all time. Did they grab enough fans to top a new song from country newcomer Hunter Hayes?
A win for Little Big Town in Friday's Showdown will be the third straight. The foursome have been hotter than ever over the past year with hit single after hit single, and they're hoping to continue that streak with their latest effort, 'Your Side of the Bed.' But first, they'll have to get past fiery fan-favorite songstress Gretchen Wilson today online and tonight on Taste of Country Nights radio.
Chris Cagle couldn't quite hold up against 2013 ACMs Album of the Year nominees Little Big Town in Wednesday's Showdown. The foursome took down Cagle's new single with their latest effort, 'Your Side of the Bed,' and they're hoping that Thursday will bring them similar luck both online and on Taste of Country Nights radio as they face Sheryl Crow's 'Easy.'
April 3, 2013 'Boys 'Round Here' became the latest Showdown Hall of Fame member on Tuesday night. The new single from Blake Shelton won for a fifth night in a row, meaning it gets retired and two new songs square off today and tonight on Taste of Country Nights radio. Both of Wednesday's competitors come with powerful ballads, although they couldn't be more different.
April 2, 2013 Two ACM Awards nominees will square off in today's Showdown. Blake Shelton goes for win number five in a row with 'Boys 'Round Here.' That would put him into the Showdown Hall of Fame for the first time, but Female Vocalist of the Year Kacey Musgraves is standing in his way with her five-star rated single 'Blowin' Smoke.'
April 1, 2013 A win in today's Showdown would put Blake Shelton one win away from the Hall of Fame. On Friday, the singer's new song 'Boys 'Round Here' made short work of 'He Loves to Make Me Cry' by Kristen Kelly. Fans will have a chance to vote for the new single from 'Based on a True Story ...' all day today, as well as tonight on Taste of Country Nights radio.
March 29, 2013 Blake Shelton's new song is hot! 'Boys 'Round Here' has won two straight Showdowns, proving the second single from 'Based on a True Story' will be just as popular as the first. Today and tonight on Taste of Country Nights radio, the track featuring RaeLynn, Pistol Annies and more will go up against a beautiful new ballad from Kristen Kelly.
March 28, 2013 Tate Stevens finally met his match on the Taste of Country Showdown. Last night, Blake Shelton fans swamped the phone lines to push 'Boys 'Round Here' to a new round. After three nights, 'Power of a Love Song' goes down, but not without a strong effort from the 'X Factor' winner's fans.
March 27, 2013 Just days after being announced as the second single from 'Based on a True Story ...,' Blake Shelton's new song 'Boys 'Round Here' will face quite a test. The track is set to go up against three-night Showdown winner Tate Stevens today and tonight on Taste of Country Nights radio. It's a battle between country singers -- and fans of their respective reality shows.
March 26, 2013 'X Factor' winner Tate Stevens is a two-night champion after topping the latest from Tracy Lawrence on Monday night. The deep-voiced country "newcomer" is impressing fans, readers and listeners of Taste of Country Nights radio with his new song 'Power of a Love Song.' It will be a battle of contrasting styles on today's and tonight's Showdown.
