  • LUKE BRYAN FINDS A NEW ACM AWARDS CO-HOST.

    Luke Bryan was desperately searching the honky tonks on Lower Broad in downtown Nashville for a new co-host for the ACM Awards next April…and he found one in pal Dierks Bentley.

    Before Dierks gets there, Luke encounters his “Drunk on a Plane” alter ego, Holden Mike Johnson, as well as his Hot Country Knights persona, Douglas “Big Rhythm Doug” Douglason.

    “When we found ourselves searching for a new co-host I didn’t have to look much further than my own circle of friends so DIERKS was a natural choice,” says Luke. “We have a lot of fun together and I know the fans will be in for something special.”

    “I think everyone knows Luke is the guy you call when you want to have a good time,” adds Dierks. “If we have half as much fun hosting together as we do backstage, it’s going to be a great night.”

    The 51st Annual ACM Awards return to the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas April 3rd at 8pm ET on CBS.

  • LUKE BRYAN KICKS OFF 125TH SALVATION ARMY RED KETTLE CAMPAIGN.

    Dallas Halftime show 1774
    The Academy of Country Music and the Country Music Association Entertainer of the Year, Luke Bryan took the stage on Thanksgiving at AT&T Stadium to kick off The Salvation Army’s 125th Red Kettle Campaign with a LIVE nationally televised halftime performance during the Dallas Cowboys game against the Carolina Panthers on CBS. The performance marked the nineteenth year of the partnership between the Dallas Cowboys and The Salvation Army.
    The campaign officially began with Luke’s LIVE halftime performance and the inaugural Red Kettle donation from Jerry Jones, owner and general manager of the Dallas Cowboys, and his family. Since teaming up in 1997, the collaboration of The Salvation Army and the Dallas Cowboys has raised more than $2 billion for the Red Kettle campaign, which provides America’s most vulnerable with food, shelter and other support throughout the year.
    Luke joined a star-studded list of past performers including Selena Gomez, Kenny Chesney, Enrique Iglesias, Keith Urban, Daughtry, Jonas Brothers, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Sheryl Crow, Destiny’s Child, Toby Keith, LeAnn Rimes, Creed, Jessica Simpson, Billy Gilman, Clint Black, Randy Travis and Reba McEntire.

  • LUKE BRYAN AND LITTLE BIG TOWN’S KAREN FAIRCHILD HIT THE AIRWAVES WITH ‘HOME ALONE TONIGHT.’

    Luke Bryan has released his new single, “Home Alone Tonight,” the duet with Little Big Town’s Karen Fairchild from his latest album, Kill the Lights. The pair will debut the provocative song – Luke’s first male-female duet — live during ABC’s American Music Awards later this month.

    Of the collaboration, Luke says, ““From the time that song comes on, I was sold completely…I feel like it’s just something that’s going to take me to another level as an artist.”

    Luke is the only country artist vying for a win in the overall Artist of the Year category at this year’s American Music Awards. He’s also up for Favorite Male Country Artist. The 2015 American Music Awards will air live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles November 22nd on ABC.

    *”Home Alone Tonight” was written by Jody Stevens, Cole Taylor, Jaida Dreyer and Tommy Cecil.
    * Luke and Karen will have plenty of opportunities to sing the song with each other as Little Big Town will hit the road with Luke on his 2016 Kill the Lights Tour, kicking off February 18th in Evansville, Indiana.

    Luke Bryan (Home Alone Tonight) OC: …gets out. :41
    “From the time that song comes on, I was sold completely, and at that point it’s up for me to find out well who is going to be the girl voice. And after much deliberation and figuring it out we arrived at Karen, and I had thought about individual female artists and I wasn’t thinking about a girl in a group, and finally I saw Karen one day and I’m like – yeah. The lightbulb went off, and I told her and sent her ‘Home Alone Tonight’ and she really loved the song. And we got it sung, and I feel like it’s just something that’s going to take me to another level as an artist, and I hope she’s that excited about it. I think she is, but it’s going to be a fun thing to watch unfold.”
