Chris Young vs. Lee Brice – The Showdown

2013 summer tourmates battle in the first Showdown of the week. Chris Young and Lee Brice will both be part of Brad Paisley's Beat This Summer Tour when it begins this Thursday in St. Louis, Mo. Only one will have bragging rights, however. It's up to fans to decide who has the better song. 

'Aw Naw,' Young's new single, knocked off the latest from Easton Corbin over the weekend. His fans were relentless voters, taking 67 percent of the tally. Brice is just as hot as Young is, and his fans have embraced every song from 'Hard 2 Love.' This promises to be a great two-day battle.

Listen to clips of both Young and Brice's songs and vote for your favorite here. You can vote once every hour until this Showdown ends on Wednesday at 8AM ET, so come back and vote often to be sure your artist wins. The winner of this matchup will face a new challenger on Wednesday.

Showdown Rules: The song with the most votes wins, and the winner goes on to face a new challenger in the next Showdown. Vote as much as once per hour online. If a song wins five Showdowns in a row, it will be retired into the Taste of Country Showdown Hall of Fame to allow for new songs to compete. Some songs will be considered for a second Showdown if voter turnout is healthy in a losing effort.
