We are so back. On July 25th, the House officially approved the date for the unveiling ceremony of the new Johnny Cash statue on Capitol Hill. The event will take place next month, on September 24th at 11a.m., with plans for the man in black’s family to also be in attendance. As previously announced, Cash will be replacing lawyer and former Arkansas Governor, James Paul Clarke, after a bill to replace the “white-supremacist” was passed back in 2019. Clarke’s statue has been on Capitol Hill for more than 100 years, but with calls to replace the politician’s face (even from…

Two legends, one song. Last night, some of country music’s biggest artists took the stage at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville to pay tribute to the late, great, Toby Keith. With performances from Jamey Johnson, Lainey Wilson, Parker McCollum, Darius Rucker, and more, the event benefited TK’s foundation’s, the OK Kids Korral and the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt. Aside from the tribute performances, Jelly Roll introduced Toby Keith’s last-ever studio recording session, telling the crowd that no one had ever seen the footage before, that is until now. The session was a recording of Joe Diffie’s “Ships That Don’t…

Honoring the big dog daddy. Last night, some of country music’s biggest artists took the stage at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville to pay tribute to the late, great, Toby Keith. With performances from Jamey Johnson, Lainey Wilson, Parker McCollum, Darius Rucker, and more, the event benefited TK’s foundation’s, the OK Kids Korral and the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt. While of course, there were performances of “Beer For My Horses” and “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue,” it was Eric Church who sang one of Toby’s popular, yet more underrated singles, “As Good As I Once…

Last night, HARDY celebrated the release of his recent album “Quit!!” with a performance on The Tonight Show. Sportin’ a white straight-jacket with a backdrop of a room in an insane asylum (just as he did in the music video), HARDY performed “Psycho,” one of the pre-released singles off his third and first-ever official rock album forJimmy Fallon and late-night TV viewers. “But if you ever walk away, everybody you know, everybody I know’s / Gonna know you fell in love with a psycho.” The country/rock singer is currently about to wrap up his 2024 Quit!! Tour at the end…

At this point, I’m convinced Chris Stapleton could sing literally anything and it would be masterpiece. Lucky for us, Chris is as good a songwriter as he is a performer, but with a voice like that, Chris could sing a song written by a 9 year-old and it would still probably go No. 1. Back before he was the household name he is today, Chris was a prominent Nashville songwriter, pinning hits for Darius Rucker, Josh Turner, Kenny Chesney, Thomas Rhett and more. One of the many songs he wrote that got overlooked, however, is a track called “Treat You…

Of course I’m writing about Chick-Fil-a on a Sunday… Well, in a surprise turn of events, Chick-Fil-a has officially been dethroned as the No. 1 fast food chain in America. Not only did the christian chicken company fall off the top spot after nine straight years, it now comes in third place with voters, according to USA Today’s annual reader-ranked survey. What’s even more surprising is whom took them over. Coming in at second place is none other than the colonel with his Kentucky Fried Chicken. Now look, I love me a good 10 piece bucket from time to time (when…
