Dick Clark’s New Years Rockin’ Eve is going to be filled to the gills with country stars. Carrie Underwood was one of the first headliners announced for the popular New Year’s party. HARDY, Ernest and Dasha will also be flexing their country chops on live TV. Lastly, Blake Shelton has confirmed he will be performing his new single “Texas” live from a Las Vegas stage. The end-of-the-year celebration kicks off at 8 p.m. on ABC on December 31.
Speaking of Sin City, Jason Aldean was on hand for the grand opening of Jason Aldean’s Kitchen + Bar on the Las Vegas Strip. Celebrations included the county commissioner proclaiming December 5 as “Jason Aldean Day” and gave the country star a key to the city. Fans who attended the opening were treated to performance from Aldean, Lindsey Stirling, Raelynn, Chancey Williams and Easton Corbin.
