NBC’s Sunday Night Football, primetime television’s No. 1 program for an unprecedented eight consecutive years, will unveil an all-new show open with Carrie Underwood this season, with a nod to the first-ever NBC SNF open in 2006 featuring a new rendition of the original “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night” music.

Underwood, the seven-time Grammy Award-winner and multi-platinum recording artist, stars in the NBC SNF show open for the seventh consecutive year and welcomes Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Joan Jett, who makes an appearance during Underwood’s performance.

You know it.

You love it.

And you've been WAITING ALL DAY FOR IT. @carrieunderwood and @joanjett are bringing back our iconic opening song this season: https://t.co/CKakj8arWd pic.twitter.com/q5o03f86CE

— Sunday Night Football on NBC (@SNFonNBC) August 20, 2019

At the invitation of Underwood, Jett – whose 1988 Top 10 hit “I Hate Myself for Loving You” was adapted for the original “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night” SNF show open music in 2006 – appears for the first time in the NBC Sunday Night Football show open. Carrie will also be joined by NFL stars (to be announced on Monday) in the new show open.

“I have always been a huge fan of Joan’s, and I’m thrilled that she’s joining us for the Sunday Night Football open,” said Carrie. “What better way to pay homage to the original SNF opening song than by getting to play with her on primetime’s biggest stage?”

“When Carrie brought us this idea, we immediately embraced it as a terrific way to evolve the performance, while also celebrating the song we used in our first 10 seasons of SNF,” said Fred Gaudelli, Executive Producer of NBC’s Sunday Night Football. “We were excited when Joan agreed to join us, and we can’t wait to debut the finished product.”

*At halftime of this Sunday night’s preseason game (August 25th) on NBC (Pittsburgh Steelers at Tennessee Titans, 8pm ET), a sneak preview of the SNF show open will air. The full 2019 NBC Sunday Night Football show open will debut on Sunday, September 8th, as the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots host the Pittsburgh Steelers.

For the first time in the series’ 14 seasons, the SNF show open was filmed inside an NFL Stadium with Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home of the Atlanta Falcons, serving as the “stage.”

Since achieving stardom with his sophomore album Doin’ My Thing, Luke Bryan has maintained his stature as country music’s most beloved artist. In celebration of the 10^th anniversary of Doin’ My Thing, Bryan’s acclaimed album will receive its vinyl debut on October 4th via Capitol Nashville/UMe as an expanded deluxe edition featuring 13 tracks, including two rare bonus songs, “Y’all Can Have This Town” and “Favorite Flowers,” previously only available on the iTunes exclusive version of the album.

The deluxe edition of Doin’ My Thing will also be released digitally on October 4th.

“I think Doin’ My Thing was such a very important album for me, my sophomore album. I learned so much, certainly after I’ll Stay Me, but now that I get to hear it on vinyl, I can go back and really remember the work that you put in,” says Luke. “It was such a tough time in my career. I mean, I’m trying to prove myself day in and day out from doing live shows to recording the best music that I can, and this album really speaks volumes of where I was at this time in my career. There are album cuts on this album that fans still request and want me to play in my live shows. I think ‘Drinkin’ Beer and Wastin’ Bullets’ was such a big song for me to go do live. The fans loved it, and Doin’ My Thing was, it was just where I was at in my life, and I’m just so glad I had some big hits on it to keep my career going onward and upward.”

Kip Moore just launched his BUD LIGHT DIVE BAR TOUR in Detroit, Michigan. He said fans will get a never-before-seen show, as they “dictate” what songs he and his band will play.

“We go completely off-the-cuff. We end up improvising all night long. We might end up playing for three hours plus. We’ll go deep in the catalog, and it’ll be unlike any show they’ve seen in a while,” says Kip. “As far as set lists go, we’ll have somewhat of a set list put together, but every night in the Bar Dive Tour will be a night the fans get to dictate what they want to hear. If we feel like they know the Wild Ones record the best, then that’s what we’ll go into. We’ll also play a lot more covers than we’ve ever played. We normally don’t play but one cover a show, and we might dig in deep to our original roots playing in these bar dives.”

Kip has another handful of dates left, including Tuesday night (August 20th) in Cincinnati, Thursday (August 22nd) in Chicago and on Friday (August 23rd) in Madison, Wisconsin.

Kip, who just released his new single, “She’s Mine,”  will also continue his “wildly successful” (Chicago Tribune)ROOM TO SPARE: ACOUSTIC TOUR for a third leg, following two previously sold-out runs meeting capacity crowds at every stop in the U.S., Canada and The U.K. Moore has invited special guests Tucker Beathard, Devin Dawson and Kylie Morgan along for select dates, with the run set to begin in Grand Rapids, MI on 10/10. Moore will also return to Europe this fall, bringing his full-band electric show for special headlining performances in London, UK, Glasgow, UK, Belfast, NI and a headlining performance at The Long Road Festival.
