Our fellow Texans, Eli Young Band, are up against some big-time competition this year for Group Video of the Year at the CMT Music Awards. Bands like Lady Antebellum, Zac Brown Band, The Band Perry and more will be looking to steal the award from EYB, but you can prevent it from happening; You can also drunk dial them.

Mike Eli and his Eli Young Band bandmates don't have to look far for reasons why St. Jude is important. The longtime college buddies now have wives and kids, as well as a greater understanding for how precious life is.

Eli Young Band's 2013 plans included making new music in the studio -- and they did just that. They've been hard at work, and now, a release date, along with track listing, have been revealed for their next mainstream country album.

This fall, Eli Young Band will hit the road for their 2013 Drunk Last Night Tour. After a summer opening for Kenny Chesney, the EYB guys are more than ready to play a series of headlining shows.

Eli Young Band's new single 'Drunk Last Night' is a subtle, but important, departure from songs on the 'Life at Best' album. The track shuffles along at a slightly faster tempo than 'Crazy Girl' or 'Even if It Breaks Your Heart,' but the chorus and production breathe new life into the band's sound.

Even though they haven't opened Christmas presents or celebrated New Year's yet, the Eli Young Band guys already have big plans for 2013.
