Joining forces and voices with rising country hotshots BRELAND and HARDY, ahead of launching his Beers On Me Tour with special guests Ashley McBryde and Travis Denning, kicking off June 3rd in Wilmington, NC. Bentley’s Seven Peaks Music Festival will once again return this Labor Day Weekend, September 2-4, in a new scenic setting of San Luis Valley in Villa Grove, CO, with passes on sale to the general public at sevenpeaksfestival.com.

“From start to finish this song was a true collaboration, and to do it with BRELAND and HARDY really means a lot,” Bentley said. “They both bring something that’s so needed in Country music right now and can’t thank the fans and Country radio enough for embracing this one. I’m lucky to have gotten a chance to work with these two and it’s cool to be able to celebrate BRELAND’s first number one song - as an artist and songwriter - with him.”

Podcast News:

Grammy Award-winning entertainer Kristian Bush and CMA Award-winning Country music journalist Cindy Watts have teamed to present “52 – The Podcast.” The pair will explore the parallel between one of the popular songs from Kristian’s back catalog and a new track from his four-volume release 52, whose first installment 52 – ATL X BNA landed March 25.

The multi-instrumentalist offers insight into the songwriting process, his day-to-day life and the musical journey that took Kristian from his hometown of Sevierville, TN to Atlanta, Nashville and around the world as part of his various bands, including MultiPlatinum-selling super duo Sugarland.

“The only thing better than listening to music is listening to music with someone else,” Kristian said. “I met Cindy years ago — me writing songs and her writing about songs. Somewhere along the way, we discovered we were both from the same tiny hometown and have been friends ever since. This podcast is like the liner notes I always wish I had, with the person that I always wished had written them.”
