2 weeks ago A couple of weeks ago singer/songwriter Adam Fears dropped the KEAN studios and played us his new music from his recently released C.D. I asked Fears to play something that he found comfort in when he was alone on the road in between gigs and somewhat homesick. What came out of those speakers next, blew me away. It was a song called "This Dirt's Still Red" it not only explains why we have red soil in the Lone Star State, but it's a brief history lesson as well.
The hit country trio Lady Antebellum have been racking up plenty of television appearances, with a recent visit to Ellen DeGeneres and a hilarious stint on talk show host's Jimmy Fallon's late night show Wednesday night (May 8).

2 weeks ago Sean Franks and Dustin Hendricks make up a portion of the band Chapter 11, a group of musicians from north of the Dallas-Fort Worth area (Sherman, to be exact). Each member was brought in from other existing bands to record songs under the name, and what they came out of those studio sessions is at least one song, 'Whiskey and You', that I really, really like. So I was glad to know that Sean and Dustin were stopping by KEAN 105 to introduce themselves.
Summer is just around the corner, and most of us are dreaming of beach vacations--except for Sheryl Crow, that is. Crow's latest hit, 'Easy,' sounds like a summer tune, but it's a country song all about cozying up at home with the object of your affection.
