Right now, you could own a beautiful piece of country music memorabilia if you have a few million dollars laying around. John Denver’s iconic Aspen home has been listed for sale. The single-family home sits on five acres and is nestled in the Starwood subdivision. It features five bedrooms, five bathrooms and mountain views that stretch for miles. At 2,912 square feet, the Rocky Mountain paradise could be yours for a cool $8.5 million.
Country legend Willie Nelson missed the kick-off weekend of the Outlaw Music Festival on doctor’s orders. In a statement posted by the red-headed stranger’s team, Nelson wasn’t feeling well and was advised to rest. A quick recovery is expected and he’ll be “back out on the road in no time.”
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
