This dapper young fella is all dressed up to sing a classic from the King. We love the seafoam button-down and necktie. Sure, it's probably a clip-on, but have you ever tried to knot a double windsor? His stiff white hat is a throwback to the time George Strait first made 'Amarillo by Morning' a country hit in 1983.
As 2012 comes to a close, I thought about all the amazing music this year has brought. There was a slew of great country songs and it's a challenge to just pick a few of my favorites, but I think I'm up for the task.
The talent that comes out of Texas is no surprise to us. But we know just how difficult it is to break that mold of a "Texas Country Artist" and break into mainstream country. More or less the mainstream music industry as well. Well, two artists from our own backyard have just proved just how talented they are by scoring nominations for the 2013 Grammy Awards.
Christmas music is a vital part of the holiday season. Christmas music brings people together, and is something everyone can relate to. Country artists have been releasing their own versions of our favorite Christmas songs for years. Here are our favorite country Christmas songs.
On last night's (Dec. 3) performance episode of 'The Voice,' pop rocker Cassadee Pope tackled the Rascal Flatts' track 'Stand' as her first song. Each contestant delivered two songs: one of their own choosing and their coach's choice. Can you guess who picked this tune? Regardless of who picked it, Pope gave the song a pop rock makeover, turning it into a Cassadee Pope song.
I love the feeling that Christmas time brings. It's the time of year even the crabbiest folks seem nicer. It also has some of the most beautiful and fun music. Just hearing Christmas music can instantly put me in a good mood. At my house, you'll hear me listening to my favorite Christmas tunes while trimming the tree, or wrapping those presents.
The Sound of Music is a beloved musical that is loved by many. Now NBC is bringing the show to TV in 2013.. And it gets better, Carrie Underwood will star as Maria Von Trapp, the role originally played by Julie Andrews. I'm such a Broadway show fan, I can hardly wait!
Recently I was asked what country artist I would love to spend Christmas with. Well, I had never thought about it, but now I can't keep from thinking about it. I have so many favorite artists, all for different reasons.
The four members of Eli Young Band are helping get everyone in the Christmas spirit with the release of a new video of them singing a soulful, acoustic version of the holiday staple 'I'll Be Home for Christmas.'
Zac Brown Band is one of the most talented country groups on the charts right now. And the band's latest video release proves why. Showcasing the entire group's musical prowess and creativity, 'Goodbye in Her Eyes' becomes more than just a mournful love ballad.
Two adorable sisters cover Jason Mraz's "I Won't Give Up." You will not believe how great they preform this hit song. The 12 and 8 year old's version might be better than the original, it is at least a lot more cute and sweet.
