BLAKE SHELTON TEAMS UP WITH TRACE ADKINS ON HIS NEW SINGLE
“HILLBILLY BONE”


Nashville, TN – Warner Bros. Records Artist Blake Shelton teams up with his long-time friend Trace Adkins to show we all have a hillbilly side in us with his new single, “Hillbilly Bone.” On Monday, Oct. 12, Shelton’s fan club members will get a special treat when “Hillbilly Bone” will be available for them to preview for 24 hours via logging into their BSers Fan Club account. Also, starting Tuesday, Oct. 13, fans can stream the song exclusively for two weeks at www.blakeshelton.com. The single will impact radio on November 2 and the music video single will be available on November 3.
 
“When I first heard ‘Hillbilly Bone,’ I knew it was one of those songs that would kick the door down, and who better to kick the door down with me than my buddy Trace,” says Shelton. “It’s one of those songs you can’t get out of your head, and for Trace and I both, it was one of those songs that made sense since we are pretty much both ‘Hillbilly’ to the core.”
 
The single, written by Luke Laird and Craig Wiseman, is a comedic, up-tempo, catchy, sing-along song about being so different, but yet really the same. “Hillbilly Bone” is the first single from Shelton’s forthcoming CD release. The release will be the follow up to Shelton’s album, Startin’ Fires, which was released in November of 2008.
 
Shelton has released five studio albums, his most recent Startin' Fires. His current hit single, "I’ll Just Hold On," made it into the Top 10 on the country singles charts and was the follow up to his back-to-back multi-week #1 singles "She Wouldn’t Be Gone” and “Home.”  Shelton's hits also include his six-week #1 debut single, "Austin," and two additional multi-week #1 singles with "The Baby” and “Some Beach.” Blake recently ended several dates on George Strait’s summer tour.  
 
With his unmistakable basement-deep voice, Adkins has twenty-seven charted hit singles, 14 of which broke Billboard’s Top 10. His albums have achieved Gold or multi-Platinum certification and three have made their debut at #1. Adkins has received a string of nominations from multiple music award shows including CMT, the CMA's, and the GRAMMYS. In 2008, he won the ACM Single of the Year Award for the chart-topping song, “You’re Gonna Miss This.”  His latest hit single climbing the charts is "All I Ask For Anymore," the tender ballad from X, his tenth album on Capitol Records Nashville.

No core country artist has crossed over more titles to AC. Rogers has scored eight AC No. 1s. Rogers: "I remember when [the AC charts] were established, I thought it was so cool. I've always been a believer in the strength of the song. My problem is I'm a country singer who's had a lot of other musical influences, so my stuff is going to tend to be more AC. That's always been my slam in country music, that I was never a true country artist, even though &q

They call her..The Bare Naked Bandit..29 yr Old Lee Grace Doherty

ARRESTED now in Colorado...but what a story and week for 2 brothers and their stripper sister! Text messages and tweets by three fugitive siblings who shot at a police officer and robbed a bank reveal a dangerous mindset and a firm bond between the siblings, "We've certainly seen their mindset when... They shot at a law enforcement officer outside of Tampa Bay, Fla., and when they fired inside that bank in Valdosta, Ga. But these additional texts and tweets have given us additional insight," FBI Special Agent Stephen Emmett told "Good Morning America" today. " We are concerned and feel that they are going to continue and cause problems to say the least for law enforcement." Ryan Dougherty, 21; his sister Lee Grace E. Dougherty, 29; and half-brother Dylan Dougherty Stanley, 26, have been on the lam since Aug. 2 when they shot at a police officer attempting to pull their white Subaru Impreza over for speeding.
