Country Music News

    1) Chris Young was arrested Monday night at a Nashville bar for confronting Alcohol Beverage Commission officers who were conducting routine checks.  Cops say his eyes were bloodshot and watery and he was slurring his speech.

     

    2) With the country music world mostly focused on Chris Young's arrest last night, we figured we should give you a little theme music to go along with that story. Taste of Country just released a list of the 11 best country songs about being arrested.  They include . . . "Back in My Drinkin' Days" by Chris Janson . . . "I Ain't Living Long Like This" by Waylon Jennings . . . and "Women's Prison" by Loretta Lynn. (Taste of Country)

     

    3) Taylor Swift is dominating NFL headlines right now, so it's probably smart for artists to start covering her songs.  Luckily, Ryan Hurd is all over it.  He just posted a cover of her song, "Now That We Don't Talk", one of her "From the Vault" tracks.

    Ryan said, "Every time I cover a Taylor song I am amazed at how perfectly they are written." 

     

    4) Hardy opened up about the reason behind postponing shows last October.  He was coming up on the one year anniversary of his tour bus accident, and had taken a break from drinking, when he had a panic attack on a golf course. He initially thought it was a heart attack. (Whiskey Riff)
