Miranda Lambert has taken on the role of executive music producer for Something in the Water -- a comedy written and directed by her longtime video producer Trey Fanjoy.

He explains, "There are several that I get choked up on. It's real. You get cut down to the bone." 
The guys are on the Welcome Home tour which stops at Blossom on June 9th.

Chris Stapleton’s album is at #1…
Brantley Gilbert is going to be a dad…

Chris Stapleton's new album, From A Room: Volume 1, debuts at the top of Billboard's Country Album chart. 
The record sold over 200,000 copies in its first week. It is the largest sales week for a country album since Luke Bryan's Kill the Lights moved 320,000 albums in its first week. 

Brantley Gilbert is going to be a dad! He and his wife Amber are expecting their first child later this year. 
Doctors told them that in-vitro fertilization was their only hope at having a child, but they put the treatment on hold and in February, Amber surprised Brantley on his tour bus with three positive pregnancy tests. 
He tells People, “I think I stared at it for at least two minutes without saying anything because I was literally in shock. We’d been told it was just not in the cards, and I’m staring at this answer to many, many, many prayers.”
They'll reveal the gender at a party in a couple of weeks and he will be at Blossom on August 4th.
