Sugarland began dropping cryptic teasers on social media, hinting that big announcement was on the way. This sparked plenty of anticipation and speculation about what the duo had in store. The wait finally ended today, August 11, when the GRAMMY® Award-winning duo revealed they’re hitting the road for “The Ride Or Die Tour.”

The last time fans had the chance to catch Sugarland on stage was back in 2024 when they embarked on a tour with Little Big Town, promoting their collaboration on the cover of Phil Collins’ hit “Take Me Home”, as well as Sugarland’s EP There Goes The Neighborhood. Now they are back and ready to come together with fans to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their landmark album Enjoy The Ride.

The Ride Or Die Tour will be a 26-city trek across the U.S. It kicks off October 1 in St. Augustine, FL and will continue all the way through November 21, when they will wrap things up in Dallas, TX.

With each stop, Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush are expected to deliver a dynamic, high-energy live experience featuring a mix of hit singles and fan-favorites from their extensive catalog that spans over 20 years.

“Enjoy the Ride was such a turning point album,” said Nettles. “It literally catapulted us onto the ride of our lives with a carnival of hits and a life on The Road. We couldn’t let its anniversary pass without marking it as something special with our fans, live and on tour!”

When Kenny Chesney revealed the track list for his upcoming album Silver Sands Marina, there was one collaboration that immediately caught fans’ attention: “It Just Got Weird” featuring Megan Moroney. Now, the country star is opening up about how this duet came to be and the moment he realized the songstress would be the perfect addition to the track.

On July 30, Chesney returned to TalkShopLive to take questions from members of No Shoes Nation and discuss his 21st studio album arriving September 25 via his independent label, Hey Now Records.

During the conversation, the Tennessee native touched on several of the tracks including “It Just Got Weird.” He explained Moroney had heard from her friend and songwriter Jessie Jo Dillon that he had cut the track and she instantly wanted to be a part of it. She didn’t just volunteer herself, as Chesney says she “damn near insisted.”

“Megan called me and she goes, ‘I hear you cut a song because it just got weird.’ And she goes, ‘I want to sing on it.’”

Chesney didn’t put up much of a fight as he knew that she would “attack” the song in a way that would perfectly align with how he wanted it to sound.

“There’s something about her voice. I mean, just in the title, there’s a certain angst and a certain energy between the two people, and it had to be the perfect voice to do that. And I don’t know, sometimes when Megan sings, she sounds like she’s been up all night, in a great way,” he said, complimenting her signature rasp and unique tone of her voice.

Fans have not yet heard the final recorded track from the project, but Chesney admitted he is “very happy” with how it turned out with the addition of Moroney’s vocals.

“Her voice is perfect for the emotion and the angst of that song, because like I said, there is a moment where you just know that it’s over. And whether you’re in your 20s or your 30s – No matter how old you are, you know.”

The song will appear on Silver Sands Marina, which also includes features with Lily Meola and Colbie Caillat. The project marks the start of a brand-new musical chapter for the 2025 Country Music Hall of Fame inductee.

As the first collection to drop on independent HEY NOW, these 11 songs are expected to be “unlike anything people have heard” from Kenny Chesney and it captures everything that he is known for, from positive vibes to easy-going humor, long drives and lasting memories.

“Some of them go deep, some of them will make people turn it up, a few will make them laugh… But, together, I think they’ll remind them how great it is to be alive. Even on days where you need a song like ‘Carry On,’ we’re making the best of what we’ve got.”

Fans have already gotten their hands on a few of the tracks including “Burn My Boat,” the title track and “Carry On,” Chesney’s first independent label single that marked his 100th charting single, making him the new record holder for Most Top 10s. He also became the 3rd artist in chart history to secure the entire country radio panel in its first week.

Talking with fans on TalkShopLive marked another step toward the release of Silver Sands Marina, giving Chesney the opportunity to pull back the curtain on the album and the stories behind it.

“I loved talking about Heart Life Music on TalkShopLive, because it let me get inside what we were trying to do and the process. It was a chance to show people how much telling my story meant to me, and I feel the same way about this record.”

Scotty McCreery shared an especially sweet father-son moment with his three-year-old son, Avery, during his recent performance at the Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

On Saturday August 8, the country star was opening for Cody Johnson and treated fans to a set list full of fan-favorites and hit singles including “Cab In A Solo.” To make the performance even more memorable, he welcomed his son to the stage to help him deliver the 2023 release to the packed crowd.

At the start of the tender tune, McCreery made his way to the side of the stage and met up with Avery who grabbed his hand and made his way front and center. The young boy appeared confident as he stepped in front of fans wearing his boots, overalls and of course, headphones to protect his hearing.

The American Idol alum knelt down to his son’s level and prompted him to give a wave to the audience as he continued to sing “Cab In A Solo.” Once he neared the end of the song, he gave Avery the chance to prove that he has the talent to one day follow in his dad’s footsteps.

McCreery sang the final chorus, “I can’t believe what I just saw/ Couple shadows kissin’ on her bedroom wall/ It’s lookin’ like my plan didn’t work out at all/ That break turned into broke up/ So now I’m findin’ out how a heartbreak taste/ With a Silver Oak 1998/ Drinkin’ cab in a solo/ Solo in the cab of my truck/ Yeah, I’m drinkin’ cab in a solo…”

He then asked Avery, “Want to sing it buddy?” and then handed over the mic so the young boy could finish out the last line of the song.

Without missing a beat, Avery confidently sang, “solo in the cab of my truck.” His adorable young vocals earned a roar of cheers, clearing winning over the audience.

McCreery shouted “It’s bedtime, y’all,” before grabbing his boy’s hand and leading him off to the side of the stage.

The adorable moment offered a glimpse into how McCreery is able to balance his life as a dad into his life on the road. While Avery may have only sung a single line, he looked right at home on stage, and certainly left his mark on the Oklahoma City crowd.

The little performer is Scotty McCreery’s first child. Him and his wife, Gabi, also share son Oliver, who will celebrate his first birthday next month on September 18.
