  • Jason Michael Carroll to Release Album through Cracker Barrel – Former Cracker Barrel employee Jason Michael Carroll‘s new album “Numbers” will be released exclusively through Cracker Barrel.  The new album will include his new single, “Numbers.”

  • Phil Vassar Launches Record LabelPhil Vassar is following in the footsteps of many of his peers these days and is starting his own record label, Rodeowave Entertainment.  It will be a full-service company, providing the following divisions:  Record Label, Management, and Promotional Services.
  • Tim McGraw to Perform Exclusive Concert on SiriusXM – This will be an invitation-only show in New York City on April 27th that will be broadcast live on SiriusXM’s Prime Country and Tim McGraw Radio channels.  Also performing on this unique concert billing will be The Band Perry and Luke Bryan.  Do you have SiriusXM radio, and will you be tuning in?
  • Zac Brown Band to pair up with James Taylor at ACM’sZac Brown Band will be performing a duet with James Taylor at the ACM Awards this Sunday night live from Las Vegas.  This is a perfect match in my opinion.  When they’re second single, “Whatever It Is” came out, I often compared it to a James Taylor song.  I wonder if they’ll reach back in their discography to play this, or if they’ll debut something new.  We shall see!
