Nashville is known around the world mostly for the incredible music that comes out of here.  However, our fair city has much more to offer than just music.  Actors also have many outlets, whether in television shows, music videos, or live theater.  As a member of Act 1 here in Nashville, I perform in several plays each year with the group and Kelly Lynn came out to catch our latest performance of ‘An Imaginary Invalid.’  

Thanks to Time Life, you will soon be able to hear Hank Williams as you’ve never heard him before.  A new 16-disc collector’s set goes is on sale that will give you a much better idea of how he lived his life.  Included are 72 shows Hank recorded in 1951 for his ‘Mother’s Best Flour’ shows. The set comes with 15 CDs and one DVD, along with a 108-page book which includes many previously unpublished photos from the collection of Marty Stuart.  We caught up with his daughter Jett at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum to hear all about it.

Keith Burns has seen incredible success as one third of the hit trio Trick Pony.  When the trio split and went their separate ways, Keith hooked up with Michelle Poe for the same kind of adrenaline-driven, fun loving entertainment.  Today the duo is described as the Sonny and Cher of Country, and they are enjoying every minute of it. With a new label home on Blue Steel Records, the duo is ready for bigger and better things.  Keep an ear out for their latest ‘Don’t Get No Better Than That’ on radio stations everywhere.
