Amanda Hensel — Fri, 10 May 2013 17:00:07 +0000

His video has hardly been out a week, but already Blake Shelton's 'Boys 'Round Here' clip is at the top of the Taste of Country Top 10 Video Countdown. That's not surprising, give the song's success and the fact that it co-stars wife Miranda Lambert and her Pistol Annies gang. But Shelton's new video is not No. 1.

Off the Air With Jeremy: George Jones R.I.P.

Jeremy Robinson — Thu, 02 May 2013 21:30:56 +0000

Like a lot of you, I sat home today crying at the TV as we said goodbye to George Jones. What a beautiful tribute it was seeing Alan Jackson's tearful version of 'He Stopped Loving Her Today.' I wish country music was still in those good old days.

Off the Air With Jeremy: My Drive Through West, Texas

Jeremy Robinson — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 21:30:24 +0000

What a beautiful little Texas town, but such an enormous tragedy that happened. This weekend on my way back to Dallas from San Antonio, I stopped by the town of West, Texas to pay my respects — and, I guess, to satisfy that curiosity bug I had about what everything looks like. As you can [...]

Off the Air With Jeremy: My Trip to San Antonio

Jeremy Robinson — Mon, 29 Apr 2013 23:00:47 +0000

This weekend a couple of my friends and I decided to go to San Antonio. We had no idea that more than 300,000 people would also be there celebrating fiesta! It was crazy busy, but a lot of fun. Of course we ate Mexican food on the River Walk, and after dinner I found this [...]

Off the Air With Jeremy: Remembering George Jones

Jeremy Robinson — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 23:00:13 +0000

What a terrible week this has been for country music news. I was out running some errands this morning when I heard about the passing of Mr. George Jones. I can’t tell you how many countless memories I have of him and his music. When we reported last week about him being admitted to the [...]

Off the Air With Jeremy: Hello Mr. President!

Jeremy Robinson — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 23:00:20 +0000

What a big, exciting day here in Dallas, Texas! It’s been a crazy few days here because of the George W. Bush Presidential Library dedication that took place today.

Off the Air With Jeremy: Looking for the General Lee

Jeremy Robinson — Wed, 24 Apr 2013 23:00:55 +0000

Cue the Dixie horn, baby! I am a child of the ’80s, so like many others, I grew up with the Duke boys, Bo and Luke. But I’m not sure other people who watched ‘The Dukes of Hazzard’ are as obsessed with the star of the show as I am. Yes, Daisy was the woman [...]

Previously on this blog, I’ve subjected you to my versions of Sylvia’s ‘Nobody‘ and ‘Call Me Maybe‘ by Carly Rae Jepsen. To add insult to injury, this is my horrible rendition of the Dan Seals classic ‘Everything [...]

Billy Dukes — Mon, 22 Apr 2013 06:35:11 +0000

Like any married couple, Carrie Underwood and husband Mike Fisher don't always see eye to eye. But they're not the type to have knock-down, drag-out fights that wake up the neighborhood. "I've never thrown anything," Underwood said laughing during a recent interview with Taste of Country Nights host Jeremy Robinson.

Songs that are amongst the biggest of Lee Brice and Lady Antebellum's careers make a return to the ToC Top 10 Video Countdown this week -- in a big way. 'I Drive Your Truck' was a chart-topper for Brice, while Lady A's 'Downtown' sits at the top of the charts just this week. However, neither of these videos were No. 1 on this list, as decided explicitly by country music fans.

Off the Air With Jeremy: Summertime Anxiety

Jeremy Robinson — Wed, 17 Apr 2013 23:00:39 +0000

Okay, I’m in two minds about my blog today. On the one hand, I am so excited about summer and swimming, etc. — but the other side of it is, I’m bothered by it, because there are so many activities outdoors, and I hate the heat! It’s even hotter for me, because I never take [...]
