Country Music is Love Hosts 3rd Annual Concert for City of Hope

Our friends over at CountryMusicIsLove.com have announced their 3rd Annual Benefit Concert benefiting City of Hope, one of the nation’s leading research, treatment and education centers for cancer and other life-threatening diseases. This year’s concert will feature acoustic performances by Micheal Ray, Chris Cavanaugh, Kristen Kelly, THE FARM, JT Hodges, Chuck Wicks, Love and Theft, Casey James, and Craig Campbell. Whitney Duncan will do double duty as host and performer for the second year in a row.

The cause hits close to home for many of the artists, including Casey James. “My family has been massively affected by cancer,” James shares. “My Paw-Paw passed away last year from cancer. My Nana passed away from cancer and my mother is a two-time cancer survivor, thyroid and breast. I can go on and on. There’s a large history of that in my family. Anything I can do to help and to do my part to make things better, I’ve always been into doing that, so it was an honor to be asked to come out and play. I’m excited to play the music and come see the fans, but most excited just to be a part of the whole thing.”

The 3nd Annual CountryMusicIsLove Concert benefiting City of Hope will be held February 21, 2012 at 7:30pm at Exit/In in Nashville, Tenn. Tickets are $15 and 100% of tickets sales will be donated to City of Hope. Tickets are available here: http://bit.ly/cmiltickets.

Sawyer Brown is a ‘Travelin’ Band’

Posted by Country Girl on October 10th, 2011

Celebrating their 30 year anniversary this year, Sawyer Brown releases their 23rd album, Travelin’ Band, today (October 10th, 2011). The CD, featuring the lead-off single “Smokin’ Hot Wife,” has been in the works for the past couple of years.

“We’ve been working on this album so long that they were still called albums when we started working on it,” jokes lead singer, Mark Miller, who also produced the CD.

Travelin’ Band features new songs by Miller and bandmate Hobie Hubbard, as well as songs by Tom Douglas, Jeffrey Steele, and Love and Theft’s Stephen Barker Liles.

“We’ve been blessed to be making records for about 26 years now,” Miller said, “and the great thing about taking some time between the last CD and this one is that it gave us more time to write and to listen to a lot great songs from our songwriting buddies. And, as we’ve found out over the years, there’s no better place to try out new songs than on the road–and you know we’ve never been shy about going on the road.”

The physical CD for Travelin’ Band is available exclusively through SawyerBrown.com and the band’s live events. It is available for digital download on iTunes, with Amazon, Rhapsody, Spotify, Napster and others coming soon.
