DIERKS BENTLEY
The last few years have
seen Dierks Bentley emerge
as the hottest young star .
in country music. With'
two platinum albums and
a long list of honors, he has
established 'himself as one of the most
acclaimed artists in music today. And now he takes the
leap of faith to the next level as a touring artist when he
launches his first major headlining tour. His blistering
live show and marathon touring schedule have also
earned him a reputation as one of the hardest workers
in the business. Bentley isn’t complaining though. “The
way I stay focused is the live show, everything revolves
around being on stage, and the busier it gets, the more
important the show is to your sanity. That’s what keeps
everything in check.”
also LUKE BRYAN
Listen to Luke Bryan talk, and the natural twang in
his voice tells you he’s from as deep into the rural South
as a young man can be. Listen to him sing and the true
as-dirt details, tells you he writes about who he is and
what he knows. He’s a straight-up, down-home country
boy and his music makes that as clear as a sunny day
on his family’s Leesburg, Georgia peanut farm. Bryan
says sometimes even his friends in Nashville laugh at
how country he is. After graduation and supported by
his family, he moved to Nashville in 2001 and within
two months had signed a publishing deal. This young
man knows what a country audience likes and he gives
it to them.

LOS LONELY BOYS
The reason the Los Lonely Boys sound like a band
that’s been together all their lives is because they have.
Growing up in a Texas town of cowpokes, cotton and
an Air Force base, Henry wrote his first song at age
four and all three brothers learned their chops from
their father, a longtime country musician who played

with his own brothers all seven of them. Henry, Jo Jo
and Ringo began backing their dad in 1991. But as all
children inevitably do, the boys came into their own,
both as songwriters and with their own musical style.
They have been making music to make a living for
_ generations and every generation progresses
little more.

DAUGHTRY
Whether it’s the proven “It’s Not Over,”
or the probing “All These Lives,” or even
the plaintive “Home,” which has found
its own home as the 2006 American
Idol contestants elimination theme, has
Daughtry extending his boundaries, not
shrinking from them. “The way it has
I unfolded is everything an artist could
I ask for,” says Chris. “I knew going in
I that the album, the band, all of it had to
I start from my vision.” As always though,
I Chris brings it back to the audience and
considers it a blessing, whether talking
about the live experience or the millions of supporters
for DAUGHTRY around the
world.
also DAY OF FIRE ■
Not long ago, lead W
singer, Josh Brown, was f %
the front man for one of the f
hottest post-grunge, hard p
rock bands in America. They ■
had it all: sold out concerts, I
rabid fans, appearances with r
some of the top names in I
rock...but all of it came with a 1
price, which Brown paid with 1
addictions and a hopeless |
heart. Eventually though,
Brown walked away from
everything that controlled his
life and with a friend from his
hometown, started Day of Fire
whose first album was an unforgettable, Grammy
nominated, Dove award winning debut. The latest
album, Cut and Move is arguably the hardest hitting
rock album in years.

JONAS BROTHERS
“Music on Red Bull” is how Kevin Jonas describes
the hyper-adrenalized sound he’s created with brothers
Nicholas and Joseph. Nicholas has the young soulful
voice and Joseph has the smooth rock voice, but it’s
Kevin the guitarist that is the glue that holds them all
together. The brothers relish the experience of having
people hear their live music and are making new fans,
