Every day is a good day to be George Strait, but now the superstar has more cause to celebrate his illustrious career than usual. Strait ignited 60 for 60 campaign, pushing to clinch his 60th No. 1 hit before his 61st birthday, which he celebrated over the weekend. The iconic country star hit his goal -- and his fellow country artists couldn't be happier for him.
It was the wildest show behind bars, and George Strait was in the thick of it for one year in the early '80s. He wasn't the only one. Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Tom T. Hall … they all did time behind the walls of the Huntsville Unit of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
George Strait steps back in time for his newest release, 'Love Is Everything.' In the past, the singer always found a way to add a touch of contemporary to his traditional sound. There's nothing to separate this from albums he made throughout the '80s and '90s, but that's not necessarily a criticism.
George Strait is getting set to wrap up the 2013 leg of his two-year farewell tour in his home town of San Antonio, but he'll be back next year -- and 'warns' fans to expect the unexpected.
King of Country George Strait just released his new album, 'Love Is Everything,' with the same goal in mind that he's always had -- to top himself.
Country star Sara Evans sure looks like she's having a happy Mother's Day in this sweet picture. The 'A Little Bit Stronger' singer shared the photo via Twitter and Instagram on Sunday morning (May 12).
Toby Keith is a proud American -- no one can dare argue that. His love for the country goes far, and takes care to visit the troops who are serving the nation as often as he can. The 'Red Solo Cup' singer recently visited servicemen and women and their families on his three-country, 10-day USO tour, which began April 28 and runs through May 7.
Actor Ashton Kutcher has caused another ruckus at a country music event. Last year, he incited the ire of Miranda Lambert at the 2012 ACM Awards by showing up to present her with an award in exaggerated and somewhat hokey cowboy attire while singing a line from a George Strait song. On top of that, the actor was involved in a scuffle with security at Stagecoach, a country festival held in Indio, Calif., on Saturday (April 27).
Dierks Bentley issued a very important tweet to let his friends, fans and followers know that he and his wife Cassidy Black are expanding their family. They are expecting their third child.

All-star collaborations were the order early during the 2013 ACM Awards performances in Las Vegas on Sunday night (April 7). Even Eric Church's acoustic performance of 'Like Jesus Does' turned into a duet. Blake Shelton, Sheryl Crow, Luke Bryan and Pistol Annies began the show performing 'Boys 'Round Here.' It was an electric introduction to country music's biggest party.
Tim McGraw and Faith Hill are one of country music's power couples, but their music is very different. In recent years Hill has incorporated more of a progressive pop/AC element into her songs, while McGraw favors contemporary country-rock productions. But when it comes to choosing songs, McGraw says he still listens to his wife's advice.
