Alaskan Country Artist Doug Briney Gives Tribute To Our Military and Unsung Hero's StageIt Show





On Sunday May 26,2013 Alaskan cowboy, independent country artist Doug Briney gave an online show in honor of our military and unsung hero's. The effect Briney left on me was pure heart and emotion and by request performed Toby Keith's "American Solider" among songs from Tim McGraw, Jamey Johnson, and Brooks and Dunn. Included in the 30 minute show performed a few new tunes that made the cut on his Tate Music Group debut album coming soon. "Unknown Solider", "Pretty Big Deal", and The Money The Gun and The Bible" all which have a much edgier feel, though not steering too far from his country roots. Briney delighted on each song only wanting me to hear more. Fortunately I will have to wait for the debut release and you'll hear it first announced, to be announced. Doug's unwavering love and dedication to our military and unsung hero's only made me more appreciative,as my own dad is a Veteran himself. Doug's story to perform Jamey Johnson's "In Color" was truly a beautiful one,as Doug's grandfather spent time in World War II as a supply clerk, to this day Doug still has his grandfather's black and white photos during the times spent in WWII. Anyone who is effected appreciates the sacrifices our men and women do for our country and continue to do. Briney's news of relocating to Nashville came to a great surprise during the show and is looking forward to the journey.I only wish Doug continued success in his career I'm completely awe inspired by Briney's good heart and tender voice, it will get him far. Every $1.00 in sales from this show went to Veteran's charities and I'm so appreciative of such a great cause and giving to our military and troops, every one of them are our unsung hero's. Doug was happy to announce he will in fact schedule a new StageIt show in late June. Honestly, we need a little more country, after all the country we hear today has the cross over appeal, Briney sticks to his roots even if it does push the boundaries a little. Doug Briney's Songs For The Unsung Hero's was captivating,many blessings to Doug, his family and to all the families missing loved one's who are currently serving our country.

Many Blessings This Memorial Day........

North East Ohio Foundation of Patriotism Craig Morgan Charity Concert

On Friday May 3,2013 the North East Ohio community came together to raise more than $7,000 for the North East Ohio Foundation of Patriotism for our serving and non serving military in part of the 94.9FM WQMX Your Station! Your Country! charity concert series. Fellow veteran and country artist Craig Morgan and more than 170 fans gathered at the Dusty Armadillo in Rootstown, Ohio  that day to support our troops and military. The continuing support and effortless Patriotism Morgan displays shines and as for myself  continue to do my part to support our military and troops. As little as five dollars or even ten dollar donations to support our troops, serving, non serving,hospitalized and paralyzed veterans makes a difference. 94.9 radio personality Ken Steele presented the $7,795.00 over sized check to the fellow Marines and Army officials who attended.


Fans were overly pumped for the night's entertainment coming from Morgan himself who performed more of his most popular single songs to date from "International Harvester", "That's What I Love About Sundays", "This Ain't Nothing" "Little Bit of Life", "Red Neck Yacht Club" "This Ole Boy" and to his current single on radio now "More Trucks Than Cars". Of the hour long acoustic show Morgan delivered performance after performance, fans were at a fever pitch high of excitement and would have to admit gave a few hollers myself. The highlights of the night's performances came from new material Craig is currently working on in Nashville. Craig explains " how many believe in our own right to own a weapon and the bible, trucks, and there is a lot of them out there tonight, well this is a song we were suppose to write with another guy and when we did sit down with him, well, he kept on telling us we were crazy, calling us crazy, this is the song "They Think We're Crazy", we wrote this song just for him". An up tempo country feel kind of song, talking bout bibles, trucks and a cold pack, this is one country song you'll feel right down to your toes. "They Think We're Crazy" surely fits the country music mold and fans would agree would make a great single song release to country radio. Morgan had yet one more new song to share with the crowd who wanted their opinion as he is considering it to be a new released single called "Wake Up Loving You". Craig's ballad rearing vocals were chilling to the bone on this love song,giving fans more reason to scream with excitement, I say we have a winner.

Though I left, the cheers we're loudly apparent fans wanted more, I await to hear Morgan giving his thank you's to everyone who came out for the evening to support a great cause. We all can make a difference.

Kip Moore's rise to stardom has been a sweet ride, a long one at that and what has come from it, three top hit singles  "Mary Was The Marrying Kind","Somethin' Bout A Truck" and 'Beer Money". The growth in Moore is absolutely awe inspiring to all ages.

In 2013 already alone Moore has found himself on new charted territory touring with headlining acts from Toby Keith to Brantley Gilbert, I say Kip Moore has found his place in country music and taking you the fans on the ride of his life. Moore's newest single  "Hey Pretty Girl" has melt the heart of female fans everywhere and I must say Kip identifies with female and male listeners no matter what song it may be from his debut album Up All Night.

The rough around the edges Gary Allan has a charming mysterious persona, though Allan is relateable to audiences. His voice is honky tonk, twang and grit to the bone. His flaws are his greatest strength as Gary has explained in interviews. The follow up single to  "Every Storm (Runs Out of Rain)", "Pieces" has a reflective tone that is catchy to the ear. For the honky tonk country fan at heart this song will have you singing along. Allan's Set You Free critically acclaimed album of the year is a must have, it will set you free on a great musical journey.
These are the pieces of you too. Get the new single "Pieces" at Amazon, like,listen and buy "Pieces" at iHeart Radio.
