By early 2011, Lady Antebellum's' Need You Now' had sold more than 3 million copies in the U.S. alone, and was the No. 1 downloaded country song of all time! Lady A took a break from recording a third studio album in order to attend the Grammy's, where they took home five awards, including the all-genre trophys for record and song of the year. The trio also won the group video honor at the 2011 CM

Lady Antebellum made a deep impression with country fans! That is evident in the many accolades the trio has won!

At the 2009 CMA's, the group ended Rascal Flatts

With the whirlwind of a year Miranda Lambert has had, she could hardly be blamed for wanting to unplug and take it easy for awhile. Give the girl credit for gumption, though — not only is she not clearing her schedule, she’s actually adding to it. Lambert has extended her The Revolution Continues tour, adding 20 dates to a run that was supposed to end in August, but will now keep her on the road t

George Strait has already released nearly 40 albums — and scored more number one hits than any other artist, in any genre, ever — and he isn’t slowing down yet. The country legend has set September 6 as the date for his next release, titled ‘Here for a Good Time,’ announced the 11-song track listing, and opened up pre-orders for fans.

Carrie Underwood's performance of the beautiful gospel song, 'How Great Thou Art' on the 'Girls Night Out' television special in April, Carrie received  a standing ovation from her peers and she brought me to tears. I hope you appreciate and enjoy this video as much as I do. God is good!

But back then it was a Randy Travis tune! 'I Told You So, ' is one of the most poignant country songs ever. I loved it when Randy sang it and I fell in love with it all over again when I heard Carrie cover this song. Check out Carrie singin
