July 23: KISS with Alana Grace
Buy Tickets $38 – $58
KISS is regarded as one of the most influential rock and roll bands of all-time. Their career milestones are staggering. KISS holds honors as one of America's top gold record champions, recording 37 albums over 36 years selling over 100 million albums worldwide.
Over thirty years of record-breaking tours around the globe include high-profile appearances at Super Bowl XXXIII, the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, the 2005 Rockin' The Corps concert dedicated to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, and most recently, the 2009 American Idols Finale before thirty million viewers.
The KISS legacy continues to grow, generation after generation, transcending age, race and creed. The unparalleled devotion and loyalty of the KISS Army to the "Hottest Band in the World" is a striking testament to the band’s unbreakable bond with its fans.
Think chic meets rock 'n' roll. A prolific songwriter, singer, performer, musician, and yes, even a working actress, Alana Grace has graced the pages of Teen People and rocked the stages of Bonnaroo, Summerfest and House of Blues.
Launched into the national spotlight when her song, "Black Roses Red" emerged as the standout track on the soundtrack for the movie The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, it was her memorable performance on the "TODAY" show (NBC) that sparked her nationwide buzz. Dubbed by Teen People as "the next Alanis Morissette," Alana Grace has shared the stage with artists such as All American Rejects, Honor Society, and Ashlee Simpson.
Respected for her songwriting, she has not only been recognized by Garageband, Famecast, Skopemag and WeAreListening, but last year became part of an elite roster of artists including Gwen Stefani, Trent Reznor and Interpol at Kobalt Publishing. With a second album on the way, she is primed to follow in the footsteps of Paramore, Katy Perry and Joan Jett as she joins the 2009 Vans Warped Tour. Magnetic, dedicated and talented, this self aware 21 year old is poised to make a lasting impression.
July 24: Brooks & Dunn with The Band Perry
Buy Tickets $38 – $58
Superstar duo Brooks & Dunn released their first album in 1991, a blockbuster
that delivered four #1 singles — the first of 23 chart-toppers in a career
that's seen Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn become the best-selling duo in country music
history. Hits like "Boot Scootin' Boogie," "My Maria," "Only
in America," and "Believe" have propelled Brooks & Dunn to more
than 30 million albums sold, as the duo has amassed more than 80 industry awards,
including 2 GRAMMY awards, 19 CMA trophies, and 26 Academy of Country Music honors,
making them the most-awarded act in ACM history.
Named Entertainer of the Year four times collectively by the ACM and CMA, Brooks
& Dunn have also consistently remained among country's most popular touring
acts, a testament both to their showmanship and to their status as one of the true
bedrock artists of contemporary country music.
Inheriting a cross-pollinated love of country and rock & roll from their parents, The Band Perry – siblings Kimberly, Reid, and Neil Perry – say that they bleed the bright red blood of American music.
The three have always felt the drive to perform and create music, sweating out the summers in Mobile, Alabama playing in any dusty roadhouse or church
that would have them. "There's a tightness between the three of us that goes way beyond even best friends," Neil adds. "Family vocal harmonies can't be fabricated. And, besides – the three of us know that through the thick and thin of life and the music business, we're watching after each other."
"Blood runs thick. The music business can be hard, but the three of us are committed not only to our lives in music, but to living them together," Reid says. "I think the security of knowing that about each other allows us to be uninhibited when we create. It's a democracy. It's a safe haven."
July 25: Aaron Tippin and Neal McCoy
Buy Tickets $23
Aaron Tippin is a force of nature, a man whose passion for music fuels an array
of other vigorous enthusiasms. Apart from writing and recording songs and wowing
crowds with his live appearances, Tippin is also a pilot, farmer, winemaker, outdoorsman,
competitive bodybuilder and devoted family man. He even runs his own record label.
It's no surprise then that so many in the music industry regard this tireless South
Carolinian as the "Hillbilly Hercules."
Fresh from unveiling He Believed, his exclusive album for Cracker Barrel
Old Country Stores, Tippin has now released a second collection of songs, one that
salutes America's truck drivers. It's called In Overdrive and features
trucker classics.
Tippin has crusaded for the working man and woman since he ripped country music
wide open in 1990 with his uncompromising "You've Got To Stand For Something."
On the strength of that remarkable song, comedian Bob Hope invited Tippin to appear
with him when he toured the Mideast to entertain the troops of Desert Storm. Tippin
has been a favorite of — and a standby for — America's fighting forces
ever since.
No doubt about it, in the 20 years since he released his first single, Neal McCoy
— the one-of-a-kind country singer and consummate live performer — has
enjoyed every minute of his long, successful career. Even with 11 albums, over 25
charted singles and countless thousands of touring miles already under his big belt
buckle, the Longview, Texas-based artist has no intention of slowing down. "I'm
still on the road 220 days a year," McCoy says. "It's crazy, but I really
do love it."
Whether he's delivering a stirring version of "America the Beautiful"
in front of 65,000 standing, cheering fans in Texas Stadium or performing for troops
in any number of harrowing, far-flung locales, or coming out of nowhere with a Top-10
comeback single on his own independent label, critics, radio programmers and legions
of die hard fans have come to know that they can always expect the unexpected from
Neal McCoy.
At the same time, McCoy is that most reliable and predictable of artists. He's certainly
seen his share of success in the record business, but — even as that industry
undergoes convulsive changes brought on by the digital revolution - McCoy, like
some musical Energizer bunny, just keeps going and going. That's because, for all
of his success in the record business, McCoy is, always has been, and always will
be, in the entertainment business. In fact, now that James Brown has left the building,
McCoy could easily adopt the appellation of "The Hardest Working Man in Show
Business."
July 26 & 27: Professional Bull Riders
Buy Tickets $29, $39
The PBR’s Touring Pro Division is the new 2010 minor-league tour of the PBR. As with the previous minor-league tours, it offers up-and-coming bull riders and riders not competing on the elite Built Ford Tough Series the opportunity to compete in PBR-sanctioned events while earning money to qualify them for the BFTS and the PBR Built Ford Tough World Finals.
Once the season begins, the world’s Top 40 bull riders have five BFTS events to secure their positions on that elite tour. After the fifth event, the bottom five riders (based on points) are dropped from the BFTS. The Top 5 Touring Pro Division riders (based on money earned) are then allowed to move into those five positions.
In addition, at the end of the regular Touring Pro Division season, the Top 3 riders from each region will be invited to compete in Round 1 of the PBR Built Ford Tough World Finals. Of those riders, the two with the highest scores will advance to the remainder of the Finals.
July 28: Clay Walker with Glen Templeton
Buy Tickets $23
Certain artists just seem to have an innate sense of what it takes to please an
audience. Clay Walker is one of those artists. Whether on stage or in the recording
studio, Walker never gives less than a hundred percent, and it's that kind of dedicated
work ethic combined with God-given talent that have made him one of the most successful
country acts of the past decade.
He first topped the Billboard country singles chart in 1993 with "What's It
to You" and followed with his second consecutive No. 1 hit, "Live Until
I Die." Since then he's placed 31 titles on Billboard's singles chart including
such additional chart toppers as "Dreaming with my Eyes Open," "If
I Could Make Living," "This Woman and This Man," and "Rumor
Has It." (The latter two songs each spent two weeks at the summit.) He's enjoyed
his share of success at the cash registers and has consistently been one of the
busiest artists on the road. He's scored four platinum-selling albums, signifying
sales of a million units, and two gold albums, discs that sold over 500,000 units.
However, that doesn't mean Walker has any intention of resting on his laurels. The
talented Texan has teamed with acclaimed producer Keith Stegall to record his first
album for Curb Records. "He's a great producer," Walker says. "I've
always been a fan, but for whatever reason just have not had the opportunity to
work with him. He's one of the few producers that really allow the lyric of the
song to carry the song more than trying to put huge production around it. He gives
the lyric room to breathe in a song and I think that's real important."
"I'm not sure I chose country music, in a way it kind of chose me," explains Glen Templeton, one of Country Music's most promising up and coming stars. "I probably had ten or eleven jobs from the time I got out of high school until the time I finally moved to Nashville and I think I was probably fired ten or eleven times too!", says Templeton with his trademark mischievous grin.
Today, GT, as his friends refer to him, wraps his hands around the neck of a guitar instead of a shovel. It's a career change that seems to be working out – now the jobs are becoming more and more professional. In 2008 GT was hand picked by Conway Twitty's daughters to portray Conway in the touring musical tribute to their father.
When asked about some of his influences growing up, Glen had this to say," I listened to a lot of Waylon Jennings because I liked his outlaw style of music; and I really liked Haggard too, the simplicity and the way he told a real story in his songs; and Conway too of course. He had so much power and emotion in his singing. All three of them are great songwriters and had their own way of making people believers in what they were singing. I hope someday people will say the same thing about me… that I have my own unique way of singing a song and making people believe in what I’m singing about. That’s why I’m in this for the long haul. I’ve got a lot of things I’d like to say."
July 29: Dierks Bentley and Miranda Lambert
Buy Tickets $28 - $48
Not so many years ago, he was singing for tips in Second Avenue bars and soaking up country music history at his day job working in the video tape library of the late, great Nashville Network. Today he's among the most successful and relevant country singers in the business. They say Nashville doesn't work like this anymore - that talented strivers with no connections don't stand a chance. But Dierks Bentley proved that Music City's engine still runs and that as a place for education, inspiration and validation, it has no parallel. Critics find him credible. Fans pack his shows. There are precious few new artists recording hits today about whom that can be said.
Bentley's kind of country has never been straight-up-the-middle. Instead, the Arizona-native grew up on a potent hybrid of honky-tonk, bluegrass, singer/songwriters, classic country and modern rock & roll, forging his own sound along the way.
After selling almost 5 million copies of his previous three studio albums, which included 10 top-10 singles and five No. 1 hits, then spending more than two years writing, road testing and recording new material, Bentley is ready for the next phase: the Feb. 3 release of Feel That Fire, a 12-song serving of rockers and ballads with a dash of honky tonk and bluegrass.
"My songs talk about real things," says Miranda Lambert. "Things that I've been through or I've witnessed through my friends and family - even my parents' private investigation business. If I feel it, I can sing it and make anyone believe it."
Big talk from a small-town Texas girl, but Lambert's got the goods to back it up. The old-school passion and power of her nearly platinum-selling 2005 debut KEROSENE took it to the top of both the country charts and the critics' polls. Now the two-time CMA Horizon Award nominee returns with Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, on which she raises the stakes both musically and emotionally.
Her confidence and firepower were evident in KEROSENE: it debuted at Number One on the country charts (only the sixth time a new artist entered in at the top), and went on to earn Lambert nominations for the CMA's Horizon Award and the ACM's Top New Female Vocalist Award. It also earned her a Grammy nomination. KEROSENE garnered critical praise from countless outlets and was named one of the best albums of the year by New York Times, Rolling Stone, Blender Magazine, itunes, Tennessean and many more.
July 30: Sugarland with Danny Gokey
Buy Tickets $38 – $58
It is entirely fitting that an album so full of love is one that people will soon
know by heart. That's the lure of Sugarland, Mercury Nashville's super duo. By reinterpreting
love in a raw-but-graceful collection of 12 brand new songs, they have cut a wide
swath across country music.
Jennifer Nettles says that, as cliché as it sounds, this is the record she's
always wanted to make. One that challenged the genre to reach a little. And since
music is sacred to Nettles and Kristian Bush, they wanted to honor the record-making
process and really be present this time around. The duo wondered what would be possible
if they really gave themselves time on this, their third studio album. The resulting
recordings of love have a heartbeat you can detect in the words, the strings, the
drums and the vocals.
And this release delves into nearly every emotion, packing so many stories and music
styles into one tune stack that Sugarland is calling it a weekend album. You can
put this on on a Friday night, and it's still gonna be going strong when you're
hanging out Sunday morning in your slippers. It may be an intoxicating rocker about
green love that makes the most-played list, or a haunting ballad with the cadence
of a waltz, but when played through this album can launch feelings to a new level.
Some describe a career in music as a rollercoaster; others call it a winding road, but Danny Gokey sees it as an ice cream sundae. "American Idol was the ice cream," says Gokey, who placed third in season eight on the popular FOX TV competition. "Getting signed is huge. It’s like just adding all the sprinkles and the whipped cream. Getting a single out is like putting the cherry on top."
As he continued to rise through the ranks of American Idol hopefuls, it became increasingly clear that Gokey was blessed with a voice that could sing any style of music and turn any song into a compelling moment. So why did he choose a career as a country artist? "It’s all American music. There’s not a person in the United States of America who doesn’t love country or have some kind of tie to it," he enthuses.
Knowing firsthand the power of music, Gokey entered the studio determined to craft a debut album filled with songs that mattered. "I definitely have something to say with this album, and I think people will recognize that,” he says. "Music was the catalyst that helped bring healing, a determination and a resolve. That’s why I want to do music. I want to bring that same hope. When my wife passed, I tried out for American Idol, and music brought me hope. It brought me a reason to live again. Now I want to bring that into my music."
July 31: Alan Jackson with Josh Turner
Buy Tickets $38 – $58
"Good Time" is a honky-tonk jam that kicks off Alan Jackson's latest Arista
Nashville album for a tremendously easygoing yet edgy five minutes-plus. It's a
Friday night country tune sung by a dog-tired guy who has worked straight through
the week yet doesn't want to sleep — not now; not when "all the conditions
are right," as Jackson sings, for something sweeter. The guy has cashed his
check, cleaned his truck, picked up his girl across town, and as the sun goes down,
he's heading out for some fun — some beer, some Bocephus, some relief.
Jackson's newest collection — for which he wrote all seventeen songs —
is named "Good Time," as well, and it's already generated a trio of back-to-back-to-back
chart-topping singles with the title track and the songs, "Country Boy"
and "Small Town Southern Man." Loose, inventive, traditional, high-spirited,
sad, intense, laid-back, clear as a bell, the album is a great Alan Jackson hang.
"I guess I felt like I needed something that wasn't entirely a big, heavy album,"
says Jackson, whose last release, 2006's profoundly acclaimed Like Red on a Rose,
was an adventurous exploration of country-soul with producer Alison Krauss.
"You know," Jackson continues, "I felt like I wanted something that
had some fun on it, because when I play in concert, people still want to hear songs
like 'Chattahoochee' and 'Don't Rock the Jukebox' — all those are a big part
of our success too, as well as the big ballads. That's why I wanted to call it 'Good
Time,' even though the whole album's not a bunch of party songs."
Whether it's with his deep, soulful voice, his South Carolina accent or his philosophy on life, Josh Turner has never been one to hurry. Since earning a standing ovation as an unknown singer on the Grand Ole Opry stage in 2001 with his impressive delivery of "Long Black Train," he has established himself as one of the most identifiable male vocalists in country music.
The Hannah, S.C. native has sold more than 4 million albums and garnered two multi-week No. 1s ("Your Man" and "Would You Go With Me"). His debut album was certified platinum for more than 1 million copies sold, and his sophomore album, Your Man, was one of only four country albums to reach double-platinum status in 2006. Six years after his Opry debut, he was inducted into the prestigious organization, becoming one of the youngest artists to receive such an honor. He recorded a CMT special with his musical hero, Randy Travis, and has spent time writing songs with another one of his heroes, John Anderson.
Blender magazine says Josh "is a country Barry White. His burring voice can tease our sensuality in unlikely places." His rich baritone brings an undeniable sexuality to a love song, so it's no surprise that love songs have been among his most popular recordings. The majority of songs on Haywire (his fourth studio album) are love songs; there's not a heart-break or cheating song to be found.
