Country Artist Do More Than Just Sing

In today's society, let's face it, a good role model can be hard to find. The thing people don't realize though, is that so many country artists do ALOT for others, but don't seek out too much media attention for it. Country artists role model good citizenship, and positive lifestyles, which is like a fresh of breath air in this media-driven world! 
What brings me to this topic is the news that Keith Urban has been named one of the finalists for "Tennessean of the Year" for his contributions to the state and, in particular, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville. Urban helped raise more than $500,000 for the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, and is going to do it again next year! 
 The "Tennessean Of The Year" award winner will be announced on Dec. 27, so keep your fingers crossed for you're favorite country star!!

Lady Antebellum is L♥ve

You know those days when all you want to do is just be lazy, and enjoy a day full of nothing but whatever makes you happy? Well I realized today, while I was having one of those days, I always resort to my favorite band, Lady Antebellum, and I think you should hear a little bit of why I think this, so you can enjoy them just as much! 


I came across Lady Antebellum about a year ago... and since then I've been obsessed with their fun, southern sound. They formed as a group in Nashville, Tennessee in 2006. There are three members, Charles Kelley (lead and background vocals), Dave Haywood (background vocals, guitar, mandolin) and Hillary Scott (lead and background vocals). Combined, these three are unstoppable, creating platinum albums and #1 top of the charts songs! In their latest self-titled album, there are many amazing songs such as "Love Don't Live Here" and "I Run To You". I was lucky enough to see Lady Antebellum open for Keith Urban in LA over the summer, and I have to say they were one of my favorite performances yet! Can't wait for their new album, and click to check out their new song "Need You Now"!
