Lady Antebellum Tour Runs To You

Lady Antebellum has broken into the Country Top 20 Songs again with their current single – I Run To You, and the band is part of the monster – Sun City Carnival tour with Kenney Chesney and Miranda Lambert that kicked off this weekend in Las Vegas.

There is a debate among country fans whether the band that formed in Nashville is actually pure country, But the way country fans have supported the band thru ticket sales and album purchases, should help sway the vote of non-supporters into believing that most country music fans believe that in fact – Lady Antebellum is country, and as long as they continue to produce top country song hits, the record companies will also look at them as country artists.

Tell us how you feel about Lady Antebellum, are they a country band or are they another one of the new country/pop music artists that have been making their way into country music?

Here is the latest top country song from Lady Antebellum – I Run To You….

Gloriana Off To Fast Start

When a new band forms, it usually takes a few years for all of the right pieces to come together, and even then you need quite a bit of luck before you can expect to make the top country song charts.

For Gloriana all of the stars and planets have come into alignment early on for the newly formed band. The foursome already have a top 40 country song hit – Wild At Heart, and they will be the opening act for the top album selling performer in all of music last year – Taylor Swift.

The History of Gloriana is short, but the band is blessed with some very talented members. Brothers Tom Gossin and Mike Gossin have been performing together for years in and around North Carolina, and met vocalist Rachel Reinart after seeing the artist on her MySpace page, and finally added the talented Mandolinist and vocalist Cheyenne Kimball , whom they met in Nashville, she is also is known for winning the first prize as Grand Champion on the television talent show America’s Most Talented Kid in 2003.

Some people say luck is the residue of hard work, and Gloriana has done a lot of the required practice and training to get to this level. It seems all of the critics and fans are enjoying the band, and more good things should be ahead for the talented foursome, only time will tell…….
