New Zealand – Home to many things important… …Of which I can only think of one at this moment: Keith Urban. Singing in the country accent, but talking in the Aussie accent, the singer of songs like “Somebody Like You,” “Makin’ Memories of Us,” and “Sweet Thing” has been breaking hearts of women for almost more than a decade now. Some women... 

If you live, eat and breathe country music there is a concert you must attend in the Music City. June 10-13 the CMA Music Festival will be back for its 39th year in Nashville, Tennessee.

Musically, it was easily one of the best concerts I’ve ever seen, and Urban had so much energy that the entire night felt like one big party. Not only that, but HE GAVE ME A HIGH FIVE. COUNTRY MUSIC SUPERSTAR (not to mention one of my favorite musicians) KEITH URBAN TOUCHED MY HAND. It was even...

After Kris Allen was deemed American Idol season 8 champ, message boards, bloggers and the media went into high gear to pronounce the win as a major upset. However, looking back at the season, the win isn’t as far-fetched as you may think. Nobody was as shocked at the win as Kris himself was. It was quite a moment. After all, the judges, media and the like pronounced Adam the winner. It seemed... 

It all comes down to tonight.  Three songs, then America votes.  It’s hard to even compare these two guys – I mean there styles could not be more different from one another.  And truth be told, I doubt I’ll ever buy either album…but as I’ve said all season, I heart Adam Lambert.  I just wish he could lay off the screaming for one night to secure a victory.  I can’t...
