The O.G. reality talent show is back!

The early 2000s hitmaker is this week's guest on the Taste of Country Nights, On Demand podcast.

"He's always been that guy."

Garth Brooks changed the country music game, bringing energy that not only electrified his performances but also redefined how artists approach live shows.

"I dropped dead," he tells Taste of Country. "I was dead for 30 minutes a couple times. No heartbeat. No heartbeat at all."

If you're drawn to these artists, you may share a zodiac sign with them.

Sure, you know Carrie and Scotty were on American Idol. But can you name the hitmakers who were on Nashville Star?

It's the most wonderful time of the year.

Several country music artists released music videos during the second half of November, and they cover quite a range: animated Tex-Mex food, the Wild West, a 1940s USO dance and more.

While people around the world are getting ready for Christmas in just a few weeks, Phil Vassar is doing his part to make things festive by releasing a tune from his holiday album, ‘Noel.’ ‘Santa’s Gone Hollywood’ is one of the original tunes on ‘Noel,’ which the hit songwriter had a part in writing...

‘American Child’ was originally released on Aug. 6, 2002, but re-released in early 2003 with two additional tracks, including eventual single ‘This Us God.’ The reissue also included the Huey Lewis and the News cut, ‘Workin’ for a Livin.’

Thompson Square and Phil Vassar are two of the artists confirmed so far for Charlie Daniels’ 11th Anniversary of the Charlie Daniels Band and Friends Concert. The 2012 Christmas 4 Kids benefit will take place on Monday, Nov. 19 at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville.
