We kick off another Inside Music Row with the mention of Eric Church.  Eric has sold out twenty-five shows and has recently added another leg of his "Bood, Sweat and Beers" tour for this fall, with Justin Moore and Kip Moore.  Gloriana is also in the news as they are set to release their second studio album.  Look for "A Thousand Miles Left Behind" July 31st.  Shania Twain will create a sensory overload for her fans at the new "Shania: Still The One!" show in Las Vegas.  We also mention Curb Records as they have released the soundtrack for "The Last Ride," a new movie project about the life of Hank Williams about Hank's last drive through the bleak Appalachian countryside of 1950's America.  Finally, we go Inside The Song with Phil Vassar as he talks about his song "Don't Miss Your Life."

The star-studded shows each night at LP Field are another huge highlight of CMA Music Festival.  We had the opportunity to go backstage to talk to many of the artists performing at the soldout shows about their Music Fest experiences.

As hundreds of thousand of fans flock to Music City for the annual CMA Music Fest, their most special memories are often made at fan club parties for their favorite artists.  We caught up with Craig Morgan at his exclusive event to talk about why these parties are so important.

This year brought a new element to the CMA Music Festival...the inaugural Tug McGraw Foundation Celebrity Sporting Clay Shootout.  Artists gathered at the Nasvhille Gun Club to help benefit military service members affected by Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Traumatic Brain Injury.  Kelly was at the club to chat with a few artists before the shootout, which has also been described as "golf with shotguns."

In this special edition of Inside Music Row we start out the show with the Aristo Global Show at Nashville's Second Fiddle in the heart of downtown.  We caught up with a few international stars bringing their talents to Music City.

Rob Baird has spent the last few years finding himself as a songwriter.  After three albums, he's finally written something that means a lot to him.  He's not only found his artistic identity, but he's just released an album he's very proud to call his.  The Austin-based artist was in town to celebrate the release of "I Swear It's The Truth," and Kelly Lynn was there to talk to Rob about that new music.

Aimee Johns was a singer songwriter for many years before finally dropping everything and opening a clothing boutique in Nashville.  She knew there were cool places to shop here in town, but just not enough of them.  She's since turned "Flavour for Men and Women" into "the" place in town to shop for many artists and stylists.  Kelly Lynn headed down to Demonbreum near Music Row to check out what makes Flavour so popular.

Rhonda Vincent has been at the top of her game for years as the queen of bluegrass.  She has always dreamed of making a gospel proect, and finally had the opportunity to record an album in her hometown church where she grew up in Greentop, Missouri.  We caught up with Rhonda before a show at the Ryman Auditorium to talk about that new project "Sunday Mornin' Singin'." 

We kick off another Inside Music Row with the mention of Taylor Swift.  Taylor has recently pledged four-million dollars to fund a new education center at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.  Opening in 2014, the Taylor Swift Education Center will be the largest donation from an individual artist in the Hall's history.  Dolly Parton is also mentioned as her song "Coat of Many Colors" has been added to the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress.  Hank Williams, Jr. is mentioned next as he is set to release his new album "Old School, New Rules" July 10th.  Look for the twelve-song package to include a duet with Brad Paisley as well as a track with Merle Haggard.  We also mention the upcoming CMA Awards which are scheduled right here in Nashville on November 1st.  Finally, we go Inside The Song with Lee Greenwood talking about how his song, "God Bless the USA" changed his life.

Marvin Etzioni is known as the Mandolin Man, but he may be better known as the founding bassist of the roots rock band Lone Justice.  He's also produced numerous artists, including Toad The Wet Sprocket and Peter Case, along with putting out a few solo projects.  We caught up with Marvin here in Nashville for the special CD release party for his latest double album "Marvin Country."  Here's Kelly Lynn at NSAI with more.
