Tim McGraw and Faith Hill are getting ready to release four different DVD/fragrance sets next month. Faith’s two fragrances will be packaged for an exclusive retailer with a live performance of “Stronger.” Tim’s bonus will be a performance of “Southern Voice.” The DVD features new concert footage of the couple performing together as well as a behind-the-scenes look into their lives. A portion of the proceeds will go toward the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee for ongoing flood relieve in Nashville.
Brad Paisley has set an attendance record for country performers at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. At his concert there on Saturday night, Brad drew a paid attendance of 73,825, placing him third in the event’s history (behind Go Tejano Day concerts in 2010 and 2009 with 74,222 and 74,147 respectively). In addition, Brad broke his own attendance record, set last year with 72,977 people attending. Meanwhile, Miranda Lambert’s March 16th concert puts her in second place for country music performers and fourth in the event’s overall history with paid attendance of 73,811.
Willie Nelson and his children Paula, Lukas, Amy, Micah and Susie Nelson, along with several grandchildren and great-grandchildren, have recorded a version of the Rolling Stones’ “Wild Horses,” with proceeds designated to protecting wild and domestic horses. The track is available on the Animal Welfare Institute website, as well as iTunes.
And finally, the Kennedy Center was star-studded on Monday night as three living Presidents and numerous celebrities came together to honor President George H.W. Bush for his role in promoting volunteerism. Speeches were curtailed by a superstar lineup of performances by Carrie Underwood, Garth Brooks, Darius Rucker, Reba McEntire, Brad Paisley, and Kid Rock among others. Former Presidents Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush were all in attendance. President Barrack Obama sent a video tribute from Chile. The gala will be broadcast next Monday on NBC.
