Toby Keith will be presented with an honorary degree at the University of Oklahoma (OU)’s upcoming 2024 commencement. Of her late father’s love for OU, Krystal Keith shares, “His passion started as far back as when he was 12 and 13 years old and worked in the stadium selling cokes just so he could see the games. For as long as I can remember, he took us to every bowl game no matter what his work schedule was. And he was on the sidelines of nearly all the different OU sporting events. He bled Crimson and Cream.”

Jon Pardi adores his mother, Shelly, and there are many reasons why.

Recalling her best qualities in a press interview, Jon shares, “My mom's always been there for me. First of all, she's a great mom. She's an angel. She takes care of people that aren't even in the family. She's always been like that and she's a great mother.”

“She's always proud and she's always there supporting and being a great mom. She's just a good human being. There's not one mean bone in her body,” the “Last Night Lonely” singer continues.

“And she cries about every time I talk to her. She always worries about me. I have to tell her, ‘Stop worrying about me,'” adds Jon.

Coming up, you can catch Jon performing at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium during CMA Fest. For tickets and the full festival lineup and schedule, visit cmafest.com.

Luke Bryan‘s Farm Tour has been ongoing since 2009. It’ll hit its 15th run in September, with four of the six shows already announced.

While Farm Tour can be fun, it’s more than that for Luke. To him, it’s an opportunity to give back to the community and the less fortunate. 

“The beauty of Farm Tour is we're out there on the farm. We're helping people feed Americans. We're giving out scholarships. You've got 20,000 people piling into an alfalfa field, corn field, hay field, it doesn't matter. It's a field,” Luke tells the press.

“But when you put that many people out there in the fall where the [temperatures] are kinda getting a little cool at night, nothing is more special than Farm Tour and that's why I keep doing it year after year,” he shares.

Currently, 83 college scholarships have been awarded to students who come from farming families and are attending the local college or university near Luke’s Farm Tour stops. Additionally, Luke and Bayer will continue partnering up for their Here's to the Farmer initiative to benefit Feeding America and provide meals to those experiencing hunger. 

Tickets to Luke’s 2024 Farm Tour are available now on his website.

On the music front, Luke is approaching the top 30 of the country charts with his latest single, “Love You, Miss You, Mean It.”

With Mother’s Day right around the corner, Brothers Osborne‘s TJ and John are reflecting on their mom and how she’s shaped them both. 

“I feel like moms, you guys always get it the hardest,” TJ tells the press. “I think the last thing I wanted for most of my life was like, ‘Gah, I don't want to be like my mom,' and then you get older, and I'm like, ‘I do. I want to be like my mom.'”

“She's got a lot of very strong qualities, a lot of qualities that we had growing up I think that have made us, us, and successful and who we are, are from her. So, here's to all you mothers out there,” he shares, before adding with a laugh, “We literally wouldn't be here without you.”

Brothers Osborne are now at country radio for their new single, “Break Mine.” You can find it on their latest four-song EP, Break Mine.

Keith Urban may be headlining arenas and stadiums now, but like most artists, he started his career in smaller venues like honky-tonks and clubs.

That’s why performing at Club Dada in Dallas, Texas, recently felt like a full-circle moment.

Reflecting on the opportunity and show, Keith shared on Instagram, “I started out playing rowdy clubs just like @clubdadadfw four hours a night, five nights a week, and love the energy of a room like this where there's barely any space between all of you and the mic stand. Dallas, I could've played all night !!!!”

“Thank you soooo much for making the release day of GO HOME W U fun as hell,” he says. 

Keith’s Instagram carousel features photos and videos of him shredding his electric guitar and performing his 2011 hit “Long Hot Summer” to a packed room with fans singing along.

This October, Keith will return to Las Vegas for his Keith Urban's HIGH in Vegas shows. ?Tickets go on sale on Ticketmaster’s website Friday, May 10, at 10 a.m. PT.

While you wait, check out Keith and Lainey Wilson‘s newly released collab, “GO HOME W U.”

Surprise: Lainey Wilson‘s dropping a new album soon.

The project’s titled Whirlwind and will arrive on August 23.

Speaking to the press about her fifth studio record, Lainey says, “I am so excited to finally announce Whirlwind. This album has been a long time coming, and I can't wait for the world to have this body of work in their hands soon.”

“This new chapter of music is the most cathartic and personal piece of art I've ever made,” she adds. “I hope this record brings some peace to your whirlwind and wraps its arms around you like it did for me.”

The Jay Joyce-produced album will feature songs chronicling Lainey’s life journey and boasts a “diverse yet sonically cohesive collection of songs,” while remaining true to the singer’s Western roots, per a press release.

Lainey’s latest album is Bell Bottom Country, which spawned three #1 hits: “Heart Like a Truck,” “Watermelon Moonshine” and “Wildflowers and Wild Horses.” She released “Country’s Cool Again” in February and recently teamed up with Keith Urban on their debut collab, “GO HOME W U.”

Whirlwind is available for preorder and presave now. You can also purchase a special black-and-white vinyl and autographed CD at Lainey’s merch store.

While Lainey Wilson‘s grateful for her successes in the country music world and beyond, she still experiences pinch-me moments that leave her in awe – and sometimes disbelief – of all she’s achieved.

“It does kind of rack my brain a little bit when I zoom out and I think about everything that’s happened in the past two years,” Lainey tells ABC Audio. “My goodness, I feel like my dreams are kind of [happening] like a ripple effect. I feel like I’m having other dreams that I didn’t even know existed.”

“I mean, even with the Yellowstone stuff, I didn’t know that I wanted to act. I’ve been acting a fool forever, but I didn’t know I wanted to really do it, you know?” she shares. 

With five nominations, including a nod for the coveted Entertainer of the Year, Lainey is gearing up to perform an as-yet-unannounced track at this year’s ACM Awards.

The 59th Academy of Country Music Awards, hosted by Reba McEntire, will stream live from Frisco, Texas, May 16 at 8 p.m. ET on Prime Video.
