April 10, 2013 I imagined that Kristen Kelly's video for "He Loves to Make Me Cry" would feature the singer standing behind a microphone like the torch singer that this song proves she can be.
March 15, 2013 Anybody want to go see Jake Owen, Justin Moore, Colt Ford and others...for FREE?!? Heck, even I know the answer to that question, ha!

Here's who you can catch at this years show; Jake Owen, Justin Moore, Colt Ford, Love & Theft, LoCash Cowboys, TBD and Me!!
Now, who or what is TBD?!? Well, there's another artist that, because of contract negotiations wasn't quite ready to be released when we announced the official line-up a few days ago.
Here's where you come into play. All you have to do to win the tickets to the show is correctly guess who the additional artist is! Yep, it's that easy! One person with the right answer will win!
Here are some clues for you:

March 7, 2013 Former Battle for the Big O finalist Paul Jolley took the mic last night in Las Vegas. He's one of ten remaining male contestants gunning for five spots in the American Idol finals. And, in an attempt to earn your votes at home, Paul belted out the Christina Aguilera/Blake Shelton duet "Just A Fool." So, how did he do? See for yourself here at WBKR.com, plus see our Idol expert Steve Thompson's full review of all of last night's performances.
August 24, 2012 All of us here at WBKR love spinning country music for you guys on a daily basis, but Jaclyn gets to go one step further when concert season rolls around. She actually gets to PERFORM country music for you too. And her band was on stage this past weekend at The Big O Music Fest to perform some Jaclyn Graves favorites, including her latest song, "The Best Thing Next to Me!" Take a look. Jaclyn and the band nailed it live!
August 21, 2012 We had a blast hanging out with Jo Dee Messina backstage at The Big O Music Fest. And, after Jo Dee got over her initial "Kizzy" shock, the two became fast friends. In fact, Kizzy told Jo Dee that she 's a big fan of her song "Lesson in Leavin" and the two belted out an impromptu duet. Luckily, our cameras were rolling! WATCH!
August 19, 2012 Yesterday was my second time to have the honor of playing the Big O Music Fest. In one word, the day was AMAZING!! Speaking for my band, we were truly honored to share with the stage with Blake Shelton, Tracy Lawrence, JoDee Messina (my new BFF!), Gloriana, LoCash Cowboys, Joanna Smith and Brian Hart.
I've never played in front of that many people before, but I'm really hoping that it won't be my last! The crowd was awesome!!! Here are a few pics of my day at the Big O! Tune in Monday morning to hear all about my day! I've got lots of fun stories!!
