Eric Church will receive a star on the Music City Walk of Fame in Nashville May 4th during an induction ceremony that will also include the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum’s Joe & Linda Chambers and the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp CEO Butch Spyridon.

Brothers Osborne will be the Artist of the Day for CMA Fest’s 50th anniversary celebration.

As a global ambassador for UNITED24 and their Rebuild Ukraine program, country music superstar Brad Paisley visited Ukraine for the first time today and saw with his own eyes the plight of its people in the war-stricken country. During the trip Paisley had his first in person meeting with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and on the way to Kyiv, he greeted and played for American troops in Poland as part of a U.S. congressional delegation.

While in Ukraine, Paisley performed “Same Here” in St. Michael’s Square in Kyiv, Ukraine. Watch the performance HERE.

During a press conference held by the congressional delegation Brad commented, “It’s an emotional experience seeing all of this firsthand. For me looking around this city and being here for the first time, I’m absolutely struck by the resilience of life and the beautiful nature of the way this city is trying to thrive in the middle of conflict. And also trying to be as free as they can be in this hard time. I think as an American it is one of the most inspiring things I’ve ever seen and I’m absolutely honored to be here.”

On February 24^th, Paisley released “Same Here” with special appearance by Pres. Zelenskyy to mark the first anniversary since the war in Ukraine began. “Same Here” was written by Paisley, Lee Thomas Miller and Taylor Goldsmith, and produced by Luke Wooten. Proceeds from the song are going to UNITED24’s Rebuild Ukraine program launch by Pres. Zelenskyy as the main venue for collecting charitable donations to rebuild and restore homes damaged by the current war. This reconstruction plan is the largest rebuilding project in Ukraine since the second World War.

Paisley’s relationship with Pres. Zelenskyy grew from his participation in the ‘Ukraine: Answering the Call’ charity telethon in 2022 which was broadcast in prime time in the USA.

Keith Urban‘s latest single, “Brown Eyes Baby,” is sitting inside the Top 15 on the country charts, and he was immediately drawn to the song when he first heard it.

“I love songs that are looking to bring out the best in somebody and bring somebody back to life, you know,” says Keith. “The songs that I’ve loved that have done that for me that give me hope and lift me up and see me for who I can be, those kinds of songs, those kinds of people really, which is what ‘Brown Eyes Baby’ is, and it’s just sexy. It’s sexy as hell. (laughs) I love that song.”

Keith returns to his residency at the Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas June 16th.

Kylie Morgan knows what it’s like to turn to a specific song and musical artist to feel comfort or validation for one’s feelings, and now she is offering up the same consolation and reassurance to other young women through her own songs such as her current single, “If He Wanted To He Would.”

Kylie turned to global superstar Taylor Swift when she was experiencing her first heartbreak. “I’ll never forget. Taylor Swift had a song called ‘Last Kiss’ on one of the prior records,” recalls the Kansas native. “It was right when I was going through a breakup with my very first love and I played that song over and over and over until I just like cried every single time ‘cause I’m like, ‘She gets it. I know exactly that feeling.’ And so, to be able to be that for someone else is truly a dream come true.”

Catch Kylie on her very first headlining tour now. She’s set to take the trek to Tampa on Thursday (April 13th), followed by a performance at the Tortuga Music Festival in Fort Lauderdale on Sunday (April 16th). Check her website, kyliemorgan.com, for more tour information.

Jordan Davis just announced his own headlining Damn Good Time Tour, which is set to kick off August 31st in Atlanta, Georgia, but before he does that, he’s set to hit the road with his pal Dierks Bentley this summer.

He can’t wait to join Dierks and his band on the Gravel & Gold Tour. “When I grow up, I want to be Dierks Bentley. (laughs) I know I’ve made that joke before, but like I just love that guy to death,” says Jordan. “I feel like I know, not just Dierks, I know his band pretty well. Dan, his fiddle guy, I’ve known for longer than I’ve known Dierks. More importantly like, it’s a master class. That band is so good. Dierks is an entertainer to the unth degree and just really, really great people and this job gets tough and being on the road with really good people makes it a little bit easier. So, and it doesn’t suck that Dierks can fly a plane, so we can be home pretty quick if he’s got any open seats. Dierks, I’d love to hop in there with ya. I’ll even help you fly, if you need some help, you know? I’m kidding—you’re flying the whole way.”

The 28-city trek, which will feature a rotating list of opening acts such as Elle King, Tracy Lawrence, Caylee Hammack, The Cadillac Three, Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway, Caitlyn Smith and Hailey Whitters, among others, kicks off June 1st in Toronto, Ontario.
