Luke Bryan’s album “Born Here Live Here Die Here” debuted on the Country Albums chart at number one…making it his sixth consecutive appearance in the top position…so NOW there’s a DELUXE version. Saying he’s got songs on his brain right NOW… “I think a lot of trends in music are fans love to be able to go and seek new music, and I’ve got the songs that I love. I got the songs that I’m proud of that tell the story of where I’m at right now, and there’s no need for fans not to hear ‘em right now.” Says he doesn’t want to sit on them for a later project. The New DELUXE Edition Of “Born Here Live Here Die Here” is out today
Country star Clint Black has a new talk show, and here he’s explaining the concept of ”Talking In Circles” to Kelly Clarkson. “It’s the kind of conversations that you and I would have in the ‘green room’ when we’re not promoting we’re not talking about awards and record sales. We’re just talking about the craft or whatever we like to do so, It’s kind of a fly on the wall show to hear what artist talk about with each other.” ‘Talking In Circles’ premieres Saturday, May 22nd on Circle Network

It’s all about here work and family life. It’s a very messy family drama.” “Rebel” airs Thursdays on ABC.
