Brooks & Dunn reveal what the culture in country music is like | Music City Minute

Brooks & Dunn lifted the lid on what it is really like to make music in Nashville. Ronnie Dunn explained that country music is often described as one big happy family. In reality, the folks who call you a friend in pubic likely hate you because it is such a competitive field. However, that competitive nature is also a big motivator for artists to keep making the best music they can. Kix Brooks did interject to clarify that not everyone is a frenemy, saying the duo have made true friends along the way like David Lee Murphy. Thankfully, the iconic country duo feels like they are in a more relaxed point in their careers. They are gearing up to release a new collaborative album called “Reboot 2” on November 15. A few of the featured collaborators include Lainey Wilson, Morgan Wallen, Jelly Roll and Megan Moroney.
