Dakota is an 18 year old singer/songwriter that has been inspired by country music legends like Keith Urban, Tim McGraw and Taylor Swift just to name a few.

April 19, 2013 Brad Paisley has struck gold with his newest C.D. "Wheelhouse." It's already sold over 100,000 albums since being released just a few days ago.
