Anytime I'm anywhere singing that song, there's somebody, maybe Military or even have fireman come to me and go "Hey man, we heard this song, and we lost a buddy in a fire - I drive your truck."  I mean it means so many different things to so many different people, and there are times that I actually get choked up - but that's a part of the song."

260% Online increase in Lee Brice Fans Following Video Release

Singer-songwriter, Lee Brice’s new video for “A Woman Like You,” the first single from his sophomore album due out next spring, has generated quite a buzz online. Upon the video’s release November 21, Brice fans on various social media platforms increased over 260%. While “A Woman Like You” heats up, he will begin the New Year with a heavy tour schedule including media visits in California and New York in January and February.

In 2011, when he wasn’t in the studio recording, Brice was busy touring. He criss-crossed the country joining such tours as Willie Nelson’s Country Throwdown Tour 2011, CMT On Tour with Luke Bryan, and The Higher Education Tour with Jerrod Niemann. He kicks off the New Year with a string of shows up and down the West Coast.

Kix Brooks Solo Album Half Done

Kix Brooks is making progress with writing some new music of his own.


“I’ve got probably half of an album done,” Brooks said. “But I’m actually growin’ a little scruff here. I’m fixin’ to start a new movie in a few weeks, and I just finished another movie which has kind of slowed down my recording process, but my label seems to be very supportive about my movie roles. They’re not in a hurry, and I’m not either, honestly.”


“The new movie is called ‘To Kill a Memory,” he continues. “They’re actually building a cast right now. The movie I just got finished with is called ‘Thrift Store Cowboy.’ It’s kind of a darker version [of the original]. It’s fun, it really is. I was actually a theatre major in college, so it’s really fun to get around to try to remember some of those skills.”


Brooks says he’s got nothing but kind words to send Dunn’s way, regarding this year’s solo ACM performance and the release of ‘Bleed Red‘: “I think he’s doin’ great. He’s doin’ good and I’m happy for him.”


“He was really ready to just take the time and run on into his solo career, and I’m a little more inclined to take a step back and scratch my head while I’m working on this. We’re not the same guy!” he adds.


Brooks says he’s thrilled to be watching the blossoming careers of the country newcomers whom he’s worked with thanks to ‘American Country Countdown.’


“It’s a little different, not touring with Brooks and Dunn after 20 years of doing it,” he admits. “But I’m still doing quite a few shows right now. I’m doing the on the road series with American Country Countdown, working with any number of different acts: Luke Bryan, Craig Morgan, Lee Brice, Thompson Square.”


If you happen to be one of those lucky new acts on the rise, Brooks has one piece of solid advice: “Believe in what you’re doing, and keep doing it. Perseverance seems to be the common denominator on anyone that’s ever made it.”
