The countdown to Willie Nelson's Country Throwdown has officially begun! With less than a week to go, we want to make sure you have everything you need to know to come throwdown with us! I asked Randy Houser, Lee Brice, Lukas Nelson and the Bluebird Cafe Singer Songwriters to help me out.
Remember to stay tuned to www.countrythrowdown.com, follow us on Twitter and like us on the ol' Facebook to get the latest news and fun, exclusive videos.
I can't wait to see y'all out there!
This time on the Harley-Davidson On The Road Report with Beth Brinker we stopped in at the Harley-Davidson® Superstore in Columbia, TN to hang with Randy Houser!
Are you following us on Twitter? @ThrwdownTour and Randy too @RandyHouser! Randy will be tweeting about where he'll be riding and wants your suggestions! We'll see you on the road!
In Part II, Lee Brice is back On The Brink with Beth Brinker!
Informal and fun, Lee turns the interview around on me before discussing his hometown, tour buses and Dr. Pepper, or what will now be known as “The Great Dr. Pepper Debate of 2011.” He thinks he won, but I’ve got some Texas folks on my side.
I caught up with Craig Campbell in Nashville at the studio where he recorded his self-titled debut album, out April 5th! We chatted about everything from the making of the record and being a ‘Family Man,’ to throwing down with Willie Nelson and getting ready for his first big tour. We also started scheming up ideas for fun on the road, so get ready!
Do you have a special “Family Man” of “Family Woman” in your life? Go to CMT to enter them in the Craig Campbell: Give a Hand to the Family Man Contest and they could have their rent or mortgage paid for a year!
Mark your calendar for April 5th and pick up a copy of Craig’s new record…and let the countdown to Country Throwdown begin!
For the first official Harley-Davidson® On The Road Report with Beth Brinker, it’s fitting that we hit the road and headed south to see Mr. Harley himself, Randy Houser.
I headed to Oxford, Mississippi with two fabulous ladies: Miss Amanda Craig, stylist to the stars, and Natalie Moore, Director of Artist Development and Creative Services at Show Dog – Universal Music. Natalie brought the awesome iPod playlist and Amanda brought the Girl Scout Cookies, so we were ready to rock. We arrived, hit the downtown square for some BBQ at The Rib Cage before we headed over the The Lyric Theatre to hang with Randy before the show. We sat down with Cadillac to talk Throwdown, Willie Nelson, motorcycles and his master plan to “not go to jail.”
On a sad note, Randy, his band and his crew lost their music gear, clothing and personal belongings in a bus fire on Wednesday afternoon (March 9), in Isle of the Palms, S.C. where they were performing later that night. No one was injured. Randy sent word to his manager that read, "Fire is out. Lost all my clothes. I'm pretty sad, but so thankful we all got off safely. That fire burned all through our home on wheels." See Randy's video of the fire here!
Not to worry, the show went on. If you want to be 'Whistlin' Dixie' with Randy Houser this summer, get your tickets NOW!
