Our good friend in Texas has been raving about the Casey Donahew Band for some time now. We’ve been listening them lately and we have to agree. Head over to their myspace page and give them a listen.  If you’re going to be in San Antonio, Texas next Wednesday November 26th, be sure to check out their show at Cowboys. It will be a sure-fire way to kick start your Thanksgiving weekend.

As you all should know by now, we love the Zac Brown Band. Be sure to check out eatdrinkordie, where Zac reveals his recipe for roasted potatoes. We love when stars do fun videos. Get in the mood for Thanksgiving, it’s just around the corner!

Be sure to turn in to NBC’s Today Show Friday morning. Cutie Blake Shelton will be on the show and performing his single “She Wouldn’t Be Gone”. Also, turn to CMT this weekend to catch Blake on CMT Top 20 Countdown. Blake is popping up everywhere these days and we love it. We also happen to think he and Miranda are adorable.

Rolling Stone magazine has released a list of the top 100 Greatest Singers of all time and many of our legends have made the list. Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton and Patsy Cline rightfully made list alongside fellow legendary musicians, Elvis Presley, Aretha Franklin and Ray Charles. We love the list although we’re not sure Christina Aguilera has been around long enough to be on the list, but we do think she’s an incredible singer. Check out the entire list.

Do you think anyone was left off this list/should not have be on the list?

Carrie Underwood put on a fashion show for the country world at the CMAs and we loved it. We did some digging and found the designers of her many outfits along with some more affordable options for the little people like us.

She rocked the red carpet in THIS hot Yellow Roberto Cavalli dress. Only in our dreams could we ever afford it, but check out these simliar dresses all under $400 - after the jump.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’re heard of Hank Williams Jr. We love his music and really appreciate that he has maintained his home grown country roots. Lately, we’ve been a little obsessed with his ‘Bartender Song’. We think it’s hysterical and Brad Paisley has definitely followed in his footsteps with songs like ‘I’m Still A Guy’ and ‘I’m Gonna Miss Her’. We love it when country artists take the time to add some humor into their music. Check out ‘Bartender Song’ below.

We loved Brad Paisley and Keith Urban’s performance of their new song “Start A Band” at the CMA Awards last week. Talk about eye-candy! We were so excited to see the music video for the first time today and loved it! There is nothing better then watching two stars colloborate. Check it out below!
