Awards

Taylor Swift continually proves that she’s a world-renowned country hitmaker. The superstar will soon appear at the 2012 Canadian Country Music Association Awards, where she’s being honored with the inaugural Generation Award.

With the reveal of the 2012 CMA Awards nominees just days away, the Eli Young Band guys — like many country artists — are wondering if they will hear their name called in any categories. Having just celebrated their second chart-topping hit, ‘Even if It Breaks Your Heart,’ the band members joke that they will any nominations that come their way.

Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood will return this year to host the CMA Awards for a fifth time.

I was browsing the events on the Victoriaadvocate.com page and noticed a pretty cool event this weekend.  The Holy Family Knights of Columbus 10th Annual Readin'-Ritin'-Reelin' Fishing Tournament will be held at the Port O'Connor Community Center...

We are all very fortunate to live in such a beautiful city. Victoria prides itself on keeping our community looking good not only for ourselves but for visitors to our fair city. Now 'Keep Victoria Beautiful' has been recognized for their efforts.

Blake Shelton nabbed three nominations for the 2012 Teen Choice Awards, which air this Sunday (July 22) at 8PM ET. How does the beloved country superstar feel about being thisclose to nabbing a healthy chunk of the, uh, popular vote? Pretty darn good, that’s how.

I've never been very good at photography on either side of the camera, so I am sincerely impressed by folks that have a knack for it. Hallie Horelka obviously has that knack.

KIXS 108 is always proud to see our friends from the community do well in competition. A Victoria 4-H Rifle team competed in the Texas 4-H Roundup Indoor Rifle Match on June 13, in Llevelland.

Here at KIXS 108, we love it when our listeners achieve their personal goals and make themselves and our community proud!
