Luke Bryan’s Mom is Making Him Nervous

Luke Bryan and his wife Caroline are a hoot to follow on social media, but you know who else is? Luke’s mom. She has over 200,000 followers and Luke is now getting a bit nervous as to what she may post. Anyone else thinking naked baby pictures of little Luke? If you weren’t, now you probably are. We are encouraging it mama Bryan!

Luke Combs at it Again

For the second year in a row now, Luke Combs is partnering with ‘Guitars for Vets,’ which is a program designed to help vets cope with PTSD. He started last year, around ACM award time, and gave away personalized guitars and also sat in on a jam session, teaching vets how to play. We love our Luke and we love our vets. These two really just do go “Better Together!”

Congratulations Gabby and Jimmie

Country artists Gabby Barrett and Jimmie Allen got a big surprise over the weekend. They each were delivered a digital message from the one and only, Keith Urban. In their personalized messages, Keith congratulated them on their win for the ‘Best New Female Artist,’ and ‘Best New Male Artist’ of the year for the 56th annual ACM awards! Needless to say, both reactions to the surprise were hilarious. Gabby even let out a series of screams/squeals while saying, “Now I know why you told me to put on pants.” Nothing screams 2021 by having to tell someone to put on pants amidst the ACM awards…
