Does Blake Shelton Have a “Hillbilly Bone” to Pick With Trace Adkins?

The web has been abuzz with speculation over Blake Shelton’s next single, and it looks like it won’t be a song from his current CD but a new duet with Trace Adkins called “Hillbilly Bone.”

Blake added fuel to the fire this week, posting this clue on Twitter:

“I’m gonig to kick the … door down with this next one!!! Oh and I’m bringing a friend to help… And he can damn sure kick one down….”

Last week actor Sean Dennison posted to his Twitter account:

“Also booked socialite role in Blake Shelton/Trace Adkins music vid ‘Hillbilly Bone’ films wed.”

And apparently a Seattle DJ has already heard the new track, according to Blake Shelton fan Pearl, who posted the following to the Blake Shelton Fan club site: “The DJ on my radio station Twittered some possible Blake news: DJ Tony Thomas(@tonythomas): Mega-songwriter Craig Wiseman (@thebigloudshirt) tweeted he’s psyched about a new @blakeshelton cut called Hillbilly Bone!”

Dedicated BSer Pearl kept digging and posted the following: “So, I went back to look at Craig Wiseman’s original tweet: Craig Wiseman (@thebigloudshirt) – MAN! I heard a cut today- Blake Shelton – HILLBILLY BONE!!!! DUDE it makes me proud to be doing this…..”

Blake has been telling his Twitter followers about trips to Dallas to record but hasn’t really shares many details beyond lamenting the fact that he’s not allowed to drink while he’s recording.

Jessica Harp also mentioned this summer that she had recorded vocals for a Blake Shelton song but no confirmation if she’s part of this song.

Of course this could all be Blake BSing us all, so we’ll just have to keep checking Twitter for details.
