Lee Ann Womack

Congratulations, graduates!

If you're cut from the cloth of those that just don't like country music, we understand -- kind of.

Sure, some of these artists scored major hits, but if you ask us, they're due a much bigger spot in the genre's history books.

Which is your fave?

They change our lives in so many ways ...

While some country stars may not be able to leave their homes without sunglasses and a baseball cap on, lest they be spotted by fans or paparazzi, the tables turn on Halloween.

Lee Ann Womack fans have a reason to get excited...Lee Ann will be back with a new album later this year!

Kelly Clarkson continues to amaze country music fans with her twangy covers of popular country songs. Every time she plays a show, Clarkson chooses one fan from her audience to choose a cover song. As it turn out, the pop crossover’s fans are pretty into country music. For her latest country offering, Clarkson put on a smashing rendition of Lee Ann Womack‘s ‘I Hope You Dance.’

It’s been a few years since Lee Ann Womack had an album to promote, but she’s finally ready to get back in the studio and record some new music for her fans. Womack, whose last release was 2008′s Grammy-nominated ‘There’s More Where That Came From,’ announced her return during her appearance at George Jones‘ recent 80th birthday party.

One of the most enduring and talented ladies of Country Music has just added another honor to her long list.  Loretta Lynn is marking her 50th year in country with a new tribute album called COAL MINER'S DAUGHTER.  What makes this one so special is the stellar list of collaborating artists.  You'll hear Rockers like the WHITE STRIPES, PARAMORE and even KID ROCK.
