We stumbled across some great interviews from CRS40 over at yallwire.com. Check out this interview with breakout stars,  Gloriana

Do you want a personal tour of Taylor Swifts’ set for a her upcoming Fearless tour? Well, if you were a member of hot new group Gloriana, you would have had the opportunity.

Tom, from Gloriana filled us in on his day with Taylor and his excitement for their upcoming summer tour where they will be opening for Taylor Swift and Kellie Pickler.

Tom: Am I A Prince? Is This A Fairy Tale?

Hey everyone! Hope you’re all doing well! I don’t know about you guys, but I am SO ready for it to be summer! I’m sick of being cold and pasty! I need some sunshine in my life!

Anyway, as I’ve said many times in the past, this year keeps getting more and more insane for us. But there are specific moments, like today, when it all seems a little extra “real.” What did I do today you ask? I just spent my evening getting a tour of Taylor Swift’s stage for her fearless tour and let me tell you, it seriously should be entered into the running for 8th wonder of the world! I can’t tell you any specifics, cause I would probably end up on the back of a milk carton, but let me just say that it is one of the most ridiculously amazing stage sets I have ever seen! All of you that are coming to the shows this summer will have your mind blown–I give you my personal guarantee. But looking upon the set was actually not even the coolest part of today— guess who was my “tour guide?” TAYLOR HERSELF! I mean, what an amazing girl. She already done SO much for us in the way of promoting us to her fans and bringing us on her tour–but she’s so freakin’ cool that she took time out of her day to show us the set so we would feel more comfortable about the whole thing! To be that famous AND that down to earth–it’s rare to say the least. So let me just take a moment to thank Ms. Swift, who by the way is even more stunningly beautiful in person, for being not only such a great artist, but such a great human being as well! I’m now even more excited for this tour than I was yesterday- which, mind you, was already approaching dangerous levels of excitement as far as what the human mind can endure. Hopefully my head won’t explode before April 23rd! Till next time– I love you all

Gloriana posted this video on their myspace blog. They’re so cute and fun.

GTV: A Gloriana BBQ party!

They’ll be touring with Taylor Swift this summer, but they have lots of other upcoming shows.

More shows HERE.

This video totally warms our heart! We have already mentioned that we really love Gloriana; we were thrilled when we saw Taylor Swifts new video post about her trip to Australia and the soundtrack is Gloriana’s current single ‘Wild At Heart’. Gloriana will be opening for Taylor on her Fearless tour this summer along side bff Kellie Pickler.

Those stars burn like diamonds.

Yay! Our new favorties, Gloriana have posted this new video on their myspace page.

Love them!

New comers, Gloriana performed at the Opry Friday night and we heard they were amazing!

Thanks to Blaine Foote for this great picture who told us it was a ’superb performance’.

Gloriana will be going on tour with Taylor Swift this summer! Huge honors.

Our favorite song these days is ‘Wild at Heart’ by Gloriana and it just so happens, Gloriana will be making their Opry debut tonight. Congrats!

If you’re in Nashville, they will be performing at Music Row’s 7th Annual CRS Meet & Greet and CountryBreakout™ Awards at the Cadillac Ranch on Tuesday.

Check out the full release HERE.

Rachel from Gloriana took to their blog today to fill us in on their radio tour that they just finished up. Gloriana has got a busy schedule coming up including their Opry debut on March 6.

We told you about their video ‘Wild At Heart’ which we’re in love with. Keep an eye on these eyes, we think they’re gonna be around for a while.

Rachel: Radio Tour 10-4!

I can’t believe it, our first radio tour is complete! Right now, the band and I are in West Palm Beach, Florida, relaxing after the busiest/craziest last 12 weeks of our lives! We just played a show here in FL-and the weather is SO beautiful!! We got in the other night and had yesterday off, so Chey and I slept in and then took a trip to the mall where we proceeded to buy ourselves many gifts-just because!!!

So the radio tour is over, but we will be at CRS in Nashville this week, where we’re looking forward to getting to see/hang out with all of the new friends we’ve made from the radio tour! Should be a good time, can’t wait!!  You’re going to see a list of country radio stations on our blog soon.  If you see your favorite station, be sure to request “Wild At Heart”.  If you don’t see your station, let them know you wanna hear Gloriana!

We’re going to be playing a few shows in Nashville for CRS, as well as making our official debut at The Opry for the first time on March 6th!!!! I cannot tell you how excited I am about that because I’ve dreamed of playing at The Opry since I was a little girl. It’s such an honor, and will also be an amazing early birthday gift for me because I’ll be turning 20 on March 10th!! Yay!!!

Anyway, our music video for Wild at Heart came out last Monday on CMT, and we’ve been getting such an overwhelmingly positive response! We had so much fun making it and we’re so happy that you all like it so much!

Lots of love!!
