Miranda Lambert made her first-ever headlining tour stop at the Bridgestone Arena last weekend during her “ON FIRE” tour. For her encore she brought out just a few friends along with her husband, Blake Shelton, Jerrod Niemann, Chris Young and her Pistol Annies for a group performance of “King Of The Road.” Turns out Blake can’t snap and she makes fun of him for it right in front of the packed crowd.

Watch the video below and let us know who you’d love to see Miranda perform with:

Welcome to Nashville, Artist Concepts!

What could be a better combination than a successful business manager, a hit songwriter, and a chart-topping recording artist? That is precisely what Becky Harris, Anthony Smith, and RCA recording artist Chris Young asked themselves when they teamed up to create Artist Concepts, a production and artist development company. While all three will be searching for new talent, each brings a unique skill set to the table and will handle their specialized aspect of the company as well.

Artist Concepts recently signed alumnae of Belmont University, Brinley Addington. Anthony Smith is currently accepting song submissions through e-mail at artistconcepts@yahoo.com. Brinley has also signed a publishing contract with Razor & Tie. To get a sneak peek at Addington, you can visit his website, www.brinleyaddington.com, follow him on Twitter @Brinley_, and climb aboard the ship for the Blake Shelton & Friends Cruise, as Brinley was just added to the line-up.

We would like to wish Artist Concepts and Brinley Addington the best of luck as they begin their journey together. We are looking forward to hearing big things from this camp in the near future!

RCA Nashville artist Chris Young is showing his true colors today. He’s supporting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital by raising money through the auction of a hand-made quilt made by his very own grandmother, affectionately nicknamed “Nanny.” It’s a one-of-a-kind quilt which he’s auctioning off to support the premiere children’s research hospital in the United States.

The quilt, which highlights many of Chris’ singles of his career to-date, is up for auction on his site right now. Bids are being accepted under the “Chris Chatter” forum of his official message board.

“I think it’s really cool that Nanny has taken up the cause to help raise money for these incredible St. Jude kids who are fighting for their lives,” said Young. “I hope my fans will check out her handmade quilts each month and consider making a bid to help support St. Jude.”

Check out a picture of the quilt below:

Chris Young knew he would be performing on Thursday’s episode of CBS’ The Talk.  What he didn’t know is that he’d be busting a move.  Or better said, busting out his break dancing moves.

Fellow country superstar Miranda Lambert was serving as guest co-host for the show.  During an interview segment with Young, she revealed a little secret about him:  That he can break dance!  Naturally, the rest of the co-hosts and the entire studio audience wanted to see a sample of his skills.  As we see in the below video, Young was happy to oblige:

Lambert and Young appeared on the show to help promote the upcoming Academy of Country Music Awards.  Young is nominated in two categories:  Male Vocalist of the Year and Single Record of the Year for his smash-hit “You.”  Lambert is also nominated for two awards:  Female Vocalist of the Year and Album of the Year for her chart-topping Four The Record.

The Academy of Country Music Awards, with Reba McEntire and Blake Shelton as co-hosts, are this Sunday, April 1 from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.  The show will be broadcast live on CBS starting at 8pm ET (delayed on the West Coast).

Miranda Lambert To Co-Host “The Talk”

Miranda Lambert

Get ready for a little “Gunpowder & Lead” coming from the set of CBS’ The Talk.  That’s because country spitfire Miranda Lambert is set to co-host the show next Thursday, March 29.  We’ve got a feeling that the feisty and fiery Texan just might have a thing or two to say!

Lambert will be appearing on The Talk (2:00-3:00 PM, ET; 1:00-2:00 PM, PT/CT) as part of the show’s celebration (and promotion) of the upcoming Academy of County Music Awards.  She’s up for Female Vocalist of the Year as well as Album of the Year for her Four The Record.

But Miranda isn’t alone in taking her country talent to The Talk.  She’ll be joined on the same show by Chris Young, who also happens to currently be on tour with her.  Young, who is nominated ACM Male Vocalist and Single Record of the Year, will perform his chart-topping “You.”

The Talk will continue its country kick on Friday, March 30 when ACM Awards host and country music icon Reba McEntire will visit for a preview the awards show.

The 47th Academy of Country Music Awards will take place Sunday, April 1 from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas (Live 8pm ET on CBS/Delayed on the West Coast).
