Country stars lace up their cleats for charity, Nashville power couple announce ‘Lifetime’ movie | Music City Minute

The biggest names in country music and sports converge for a very special cause. The first Lucky Classic softball game is set to take place in Nashville on November 16. Proceeds will benefit the Burger Family Foundation, which provides support for families with children diagnosed with Down syndrome. Country tars stepping up to the plate include Russell Dickerson, Ashely Cooke and Jordan Davis. The dugouts will also be holding over 20 major league baseball stars like Corey Seager, Brandon Lowe and Brent Rooker. Tickets are on sale for the Lucky Classic at burgerfamilyfoundation.org.
Kane and Katelyn Brown obviously have amazing chemistry, which shines through in their music and small screen appearances. Now, the Browns are ready to take on an even larger project: a “Lifetime: Christmas movie based off their hit duet called “Thank God: Christmas at Keller Ranch.” While I would love to report that the couple is starring in the movie, they are actually taking on a very different role as executive producers. I will tell you though, I have a crisp $20 that says Kane and Katelyn will make an on-screen cameo.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
