We kick off another Inside Music Row with the mention of Taylor Swift as she was on hand at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum to officially open the new Taylor Swift Education Center.  Her 4-million dollar gift for the 7-thousand square foot center is the largest capitla contribution by an individual artist in the museum's 46-year history.  Lady Antebellum is up next as they have rescheduled the first leg of their "Take Me Downtown" Tour.  Look for Kip Moore and Kacey Musgraves to to open for the trio in Peoria, Illinois January 10th.  Also in the news is Sammy Kershaw as he has recently re-recorded many of his hits that made him a household name.  "Big Hits: Volume One" will hit stores this week.  Finally, we go Inside The Song with Maggie Sajak to hear about story behind her song "Live Out Loud."

We had an incredible time out at the inaugural Delta Country Jam.  The two-day music festival was held in Tunica, Mississippi, and brought out thousands of fans anxious to hear their favorite artists.  We were able to check in backstage with Thompson Square and Brantley Gilbert to get their take on the new festival.

The 2013 Delta Country Jam was an incredible two-day music festival in Tunica, Mississippi.  The stellar lineup included a wide range of artists from the Shane Givens Band to Tim McGraw.  It's time now to head backstage again to check in with Kelly Sutton and Maggie Rose. 

This week we are featuring plenty of interviews and backstage access from the inaugural Delta Country Jam music festival in Tunica, Mississippi.  We've already brought you lots of great music, but we'll keep it going now as Kelly Sutton hooks up with Josh Thompson.  

We kick off the start of a very special Inside Music Row where we discuss all things Delta Country Jam.  We had a chance to head backstage at the inaugural two-day music festival to check in with the artists, plus we were able to chat with a few members of the audience to find out about their favorite artists.  Let's kick things off with Shane Givens as the winner of the Zuus Country Battle of the Bands competition.  

Brian Milson is on a mission.  As one of country music's brightest young stars, he's using his influence to talk about bullying, and the impact that it has on kids.  He's even created a new anti-bullying music video called "Nothing Grows In Shadows."  Kelly Lynn sat down with Brian to talk about his message, and some frightening statistics that go along with it.

Ty Herndon just released his first country album in seven years, and the fans say he's picking up where he left off.  His fans are so involved that they even helped him record "Lies I Told Myself," by donating to his well-publicized Kickstarter campaign earlier this year.  The project and lyrics came after his battle with substance abuse, but he's put that behind him and he's trying to be the best artist he can be today.  Kelly Lynn had a chance to check in with Ty to hear all about the new project.

Hunter Hayes has a lot to be thankful for this holiday season.  His "Let's Be Crazy" tour has seen incredible audience reaction, and his single "I Want Crazy" recently took the top spot on the charts.  We had a chance to check in at the final rehearsal before the tour at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center to get an idea of what the show looks like, and a special celebration.

We kick off another "Inside Music Row" with the mention of Ricky Skaggs.  Ricky is the next Artist-In-Residence for the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.  Look for him to perform two intimate evening performances in the new CMA Theater November 18th and 19th.  Taylor Swift is also in the news as she is taking her tour overseas to the UK for three dates in 2014 at London's O2 Arena.  Up next we hear from Sheryl Crow as she talks about how Willie Nelson has inspired a unique kind of sound to the genre.  Keith Urban in also mentioned as his single "For You," which was included in the movie "Act of Valor," has helped out Navy SEALs and their families with financial support through difficult times.  Keith donated the royalties he received for that song to the Navy SEAL Foundation, to the tune of $300,000.  Finally, we go Inside The Song with Steve Wariner to hear about a track off his latest album.  

Before his debut album "It Goes Like This" even goes on sale, the title track has already been certified gold.  Thomas Rhett has seen incredible success already with his first two hits "Something To Do With My Hands"  and "Beer With Jesus," but we had a chance to catch up with himm to talk about how all that comes together on his debut album.
