Andrew H. Walker, Getty Images Zac Brown’s Camp Southern Ground to Open in 2014
Zac Brown may have his own band, but that’s just one portion of the star’s entrepreneurial ventures — 1/12 to be exact. Brown helps operate a dozen companies, though he is quick to say he does it “with a lot of help of other people.” But the serial entrepreneur has one endeavor that seems to be taking up more of his time lately, and that’s his non-profit camp Camp Southern Ground, which will be open to campers come 2014.
Larry Busacca, Getty Images Trisha Yearwood + Garth Brooks May Record Album and Tour
While both Trisha Yearwood and Garth Brooks are highly celebrated names in country music, they’re also parents, which does more to dictate their schedule at the moment than audience demand. However, with their youngest daughter set to graduate high school in 2014, the couple are starting to let themselves dream about life as empty-nesters.
Rick Diamond, Getty Images Eli Young Band Thank Fans With Free Songs
Eli Young Band have literally seen their career catapult onto center stage in the past few months. After their single ‘Crazy Girl’ became their first No.1 hit, the four-man country outfit snagged an ACM Award for Song of the Year with the same smash hit, making an underdog story to be remembered. But even in the face of so many great things at once, the guys are not about to forget who it was that helped them get to this point.
Royce DeGrie, Getty Images Keith Urban Working ‘Feverishly’ on Next Record
We’ve seen a good bit of Keith Urban lately, what with his recent No. 1 single ‘You Gonna Fly,’ his surprise induction into the Grand Ole Opry and his role as a celebrity coach on the Australian version of ‘The Voice.’ But one thing most of Urban’s fans might not know is that between all of the appearances, the singer is also hard at work on his next record.
Jason Merritt, Getty Images Carrie Underwood Spills Touring Must-Haves
Carrie Underwood is no stranger to the road, and as such she’s become quite the pro at making it a comfortable and warm place to be. While she does have to spend much of her waking and sleeping time on a tour bus, Underwood recently opened up about her Top 5 touring must-haves.
Frazer Harrison, Getty Images / Twitter Lady Antebellum’s Dave Haywood Shares ‘Best Gift Ever’ From Wedding
Lady Antebellum‘s Dave Haywood wed his new wife Kelli Cashiola in a beautiful ceremony April 14 at a private farm just outside Nashville. The wedding demonstrated the couple’s classy taste and eye for detail. And yet, the gift that really got a response from the new couple doesn’t exactly fall under the umbrella of traditional wedding presents. Traditional or not, though, it scores major points for humor and individuality, not to mention how personalized it is.
Jason Merritt, Getty Images Miranda Lambert Makes Beautiful People List
It has seriously been a good year for Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton. The two have not only netted more awards than they can likely count but they were also both recognized just for being strikingly good-looking by People magazine. After Shelton was crowned Country Music’s Hottest Guy by People Country, his stunning wife just landed in People’s most beautiful women of 2012 issue.
Twitter Picture of the Week: Blake Shelton Goes Hardcore With Pistol Annies
It looks like Miranda Lambert‘s Pistol Annies let the blonde starlet’s husband in on a photo shoot this week. Blake Shelton made this photo his Twitter pic, and fans quickly tweeted their praises. But Shelton never offered any explanation at all. It’s not Halloween, so they could have just been showing off how bad they can truly be (is that a bike under Angaleena Presley’s fishnet-clad leg?).
Ethan Miller, Getty Images Lady Antebellum’s New ‘Perfect Day’ Video Gives a Look at Their Best Moments
Lady Antebellum know a thing or two about experiencing the perfect day. That’s not to say that everything always works out for them, but they’ve had some pretty stellar days in the past couple of years, what with Grammy Awards, sold out tours and even a couple weddings within the band. In honor of those larger-than-life days, the band just released a new music video to their song ‘Perfect Day’ from 2010′s ‘Need You Now.’

The four celebrity judges for ABC’s upcoming show ‘Duets‘ — Sugarland‘s Jennifer Nettles, Kelly Clarkson, Lionel Richie and Robin Thicke — have all been scouring the country for dueting partners that they think can stand the heat of the spotlight. And while Kelly Clarkson recently pulled a couple of her top picks on stage with her at a San Diego show, we got a glimpse of a couple videos shot at Nettles’ auditions in Las Vegas.
Resch Center Facebook Miranda Lambert Gets Stock in the Green Bay Packers
Miranda Lambert hails from the Dallas suburb of Lindale, Texas, which is in Cowboy country when it comes to the NFL. Even if she were to go south a bit, we would expect Lambert to be pulling for the Houston Texans. But now, strangely, the ‘Over You’ singer is actually a shareholder of Wisconsin’s Green Bay Packers. We wonder if this will get the southern gal on her feet rooting for a team from the north.
Jason Merritt, Getty Images Carrie Underwood to Perform First-Ever UK Concert Alongside ‘Blown Away’ Release
