Luke Bryan is The Hottest Thing in Country Music right now.  Fresh off the win as Entertainer of the Year at the recent ACM's Luke is right on time with a brand new song.  It's called Crash My Party.  Luke got together with buddy Blake Shelton (who's pretty hot himself right now) to MC the event last week.  We just read today that the awards show saw the biggest audience since 1998 beating the CMA Awards for the first time in 28 years.

What's kind of neat about that is, not only are Luke and Blake hot right now, Country Music is smoking hot too!

It was a big night for country music with George Strait and Garth Brooks teaming up and the evening was closed out with Stevie Wonder.  Many wonder 'why they did that,' but it makes sense to bring other genres into the fold to draw an even bigger audience.

Brad Paisley's new song Accidental Racist, a collaboration with LL Cool Jay is another form of opening the audience up too.  Oh, and don't forget Jason Aldean and his song 1994 the tribute to Joe Diffie.  More on Accidental Racist here.

Country music artists today are not only good looking and talented, they are UBRA smart when it comes to marketing.  They know  how to speak to the masses.

We hope you enjoy the new Luke Bryan song as much as we do.  There is a ton of great new country music on the way and a load of awesome talent coming to the area for summer concerts, fairs and appearances.  We'll have more on that later, but for now, let's just enjoy what we have.  The hottest format in all of radio. Country!
