Country music shined at the 2014 Grammys, with nine of Nashville's top singers taking the stage to sing and play guitar. Collaborations and solo performances from artists like Keith Urban, Blake Shelton and Hunter Hayes were among the night's best, but what was the best moment?

Luke Bryan, Tim McGraw and other country superstars were honored as the 2013 CMT Artists of the Year on Tuesday (Dec. 3). The recipients all gave smashing performances and heartfelt speeches to make the evening a very special celebration of their successes.

For her final show of the American leg of the 2013 Red Tour -- and the third night of a sold-out trio of concerts at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville -- Taylor Swift wanted 'Crazy,' and she got it.

Hunter Hayes' duet with Jason Mraz is his fifth single release from his self-titled debut album and its repackaging. But 'Everybody's Got Somebody But Me' still manages to show something new to those who haven't bought it. It's a change of pace from the heavy ballads and the more intense country-rocker 'I Want Crazy.' This is the most fun he's been since 'Storm Warning.'

It has been reported that American Idol will more than likely cut ties with all four judges after the end of this season. The show has lost the spark that kept so many people locked in for 12 years. And throughout those years, it seems the country music genre has had the most success with artists from that show...

Fans everywhere are looking forward to the 2013 CMT Music Awards, which are coming up in June. The first country music awards show to let fans vote for their favorites, the yearly event also features live performances by some of country's biggest artists -- and this year is no exception.

Country cutie Hunter Hayes just debuted his new 'I Want Crazy' video, and it will make all of his devoted fans just a little more crazy for this up-and-coming star. The video gives a glimpse into the adventurous, fun-loving love that you just can't give up on, complete with firecrackers, pool adventures and a whole lot of Polaroid memories.

Hunter Hayes is my choice for this weeks KNUE 'Artist Spotlight.' Not only is he the most talented 21 year old, he is darn cute! I'm sure his label, Atlantic Records, rejoices everyday that they snagged this talented young man.

While country phenomenon Hunter Hayes may only be 21 years old, he's making a huge splash on the country music scene. The three-time Grammy nominated musician has just garnered six Academy of Country Music Award nominations, becoming the second-most nominated artist this year, right behind Eric Church.

The nominees are in, and my man Eric Church is leading with seven nominations for this year's 48th Annual ACM Awards. Cutie pie Hunter Hayes picked up six nominations, while Miranda Lambert and Taylor Swift are tied with five apiece.
