Cameras caught the trio at Virginia Beach on their Wheels Up 2015 Tour with opening acts Sam Hunt and Hunter Hayes. Then at 12pm ET, CMT will premiere the band’s third live DVD release. The full-length program will be available on DVD and blu-ray, with a deluxe version at Walmart, November 13th.

Kacey Musgraves and Josh Turner have been added to the list of performers at the 9th Annual ACM Honors at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium on Tuesday (September 1st).

Luke Bryan and Lady Antebellum will be among the famous faces honoring Lionel Richie as the 2016 MusiCares Person of the Year on February 13th in Los Angeles, prior to the Grammy Awards later that week.

Jon Pardi took to his Twitter to announce the newest addition to his family, Augustus. The pup, otherwise known as “Gus,” joins Jon’s other dog, “Cowboy.” The two dogs are actually related — Gus is Cowboy’s nephew.
