This is Country Music...


Hey yall! I'm a college student, hoping to live, work, & love in Nashville one day. All I need is my faith, family, friends, & music, especially country music.

This is a blog dedicated to country music, all of it! Songs, pictures, videos, news, stories, tour dates, set lists, concert reviews, etc. Suggestions, & questions are always welcome!

"A good country song takes a page out of somebody's life and puts it to music."-Conway Twitty

"I am proud to be in country music. Even though in some circles it is not given the respect it deserves as an art form, I am constantly reminded of its strengths. See, country music is unique. It is brave. It is not afraid to deal head-on with subjects like disease, death, religion, drinking, family, or anything else that qualifies as life. It isn’t above the fans. It is about them. It is the soundtrack to my life and probably yours. I get to be more than just a recording artist. Country singers are present at weddings, funerals, graduations, and the most impactful moments of our fans’ lives. In exchange for singing a few songs, we are loved unconditionally and we are given loyalty beyond what we deserve. Every style of music thinks it has the best fans in the whole world. But this is country music. And we do."-Brad Paisley
