Tomorrow (Nov. 26) will be all about counting your blessings. The obvious ones, like your family, health and God willing, your financial security. And the not-so-obvious ones, like how the Halloween candy is finally gone or that you recently discovered the Boob Tube . But if we were all holding ...

The day after Thanksgiving is typically the day when smart shoppers start their holiday shopping. But if you have any country fans on your list (like, say, yourself), you may want to wait until Dec. 3. That's the day that Christie's is starting their country music sale, which they describe as ...

Is it bad if the only part of this song I really truly like is the chorus? "Cold Beer" is mostly a Colt Ford song, and he has this whole country hip-hop fusion thing going on. I'm sure there are people out there who love that, I'm just not one of them. But, I do agree with the general spirit of ...

I remember the first time I ate at Cracker Barrel . It was Thanksgiving 1994, about three months after moving to Nashville to attend Belmont University. One of my friends invited me to join her and I ordered your typical Thanksgiving dinner -- and I remember calling home, saying it was one of ...

I feel like I already know this Josh Kelley . Mostly that's because he's the brother of Lady Antebellum 's frontman Charles Kelley, which means a signature soulful sound is in his blood. Plus he was already making some pretty cool pop-rock-folk type music before. And now he's told Entertainment ...

Good ol' Jimmy Wayne . He is giving us two very solid reasons to love Mondays, at least for today. One, his new album, Sara Smile , is out today. And two, he's doing a live video chat and sing (I just made that name up) at 7 p.m. CT to showcase some of the new music. You can catch it on his ...

So many of John Fogerty 's songs are like time machines. By the time the first three notes ring out, my mind has already pulled up some long-forgotten memory. And since I was one of the younger people in the crowd at Sunday night's (Nov. 22) show at the Ryman Auditorium , I can only imagine ...
