TWANG TOWN LOWDOWN - TUESDAY APRIL 19TH





MIRANDA LAMBERT: MILESTONE ANNIVERSARY FOR 'RAN

Today marks a pretty significant anniversary in Miranda Lambert’s music history. On this day in 2003, Miranda scored her first major record deal with Sony Music Nashville -- and she’s been a boss ever since.

Miranda won the most awards at the Grammys, ACMs and CMAs combined in 2015.

Miranda set a new ACM record when she won her seventh trophy for Female Vocalist of the Year.

Last year, she found a ton of pups new forever homes and launched a scholarship fund for women in music at Belmont University.

The Nashville Convention and Visitors Bureau gave her a star on the Music City Walk of Fame, and she was the Nashville Symphony’s 2015 Harmony Award recipient.

She was among Forbes’s highest-paid women in music in 2015 with $28.5 million.

And her Cosmo cover was smokin’ hot.

KENNY CHESNEY: TOUR KICKS OFF THIS WEEKEND



Kenny Chesney kicks off his tour this Saturday with a charity show at Jordan-Hare Stadium on the campus of Auburn University in Alabama.

Kenny says, “Every time I get to play somewhere with the kind of history Auburn has, it pushes me a little harder to really raise the bar. And the mission and heart behind Music and Miracles raises that bar higher still.”

Music and Miracles is an organization that raises money for cancer research. Miranda Lambert, Sam Hunt and Old Dominion are also on the bill. 

LUKE BRYAN: CRASH MY PLAYA IS ON AGAIN...

 

Luke Bryan is bringing back his concert vacation event, Crash My Playa, for the third year in a row. Next year's event takes place January 19th through the 22nd in Riviera Maya, Mexico.

Luke says, “This experience for my fans has more than exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, everyone has the best time and it’s something my band, crew and I look forward to all year long. We love kicking off the New Year this way!”

Luke will headline two of the four nights, and additional performers will be announced soon.
