Country Now, a Country music and lifestyle YouTube channel, has launched a performance-driven program, “Live From Blackbird,” recorded live from Nashville’s Blackbird Studios. The program, which combines artist performance with commentary, already features music from Casey James, Dakota Bradley, Joe Nichols, Love and Theft, and Parmalee.
Performances include Parmalee’s “Carolina,” “Day Drinkin'” and “Already Callin’ You Mine” from the group’s Dec. 10 release Feels Like Carolina. Nichols performed “Sunny and 75” from his album Crickets, along with “Hee Haw,” and “Footlights.” Bradley’s appearance on the program includes the songs “Somethin’ Like Somethin’,” “Name On It,” and “Hurt Awhile.”
James also recently recorded “Light Years,” “Never Walk Away”, “Drive” and “She’s Money” for the show; the most recent taping featured Love and Theft. The duo performed “Amen”, “If You Ever Get Lonely,” “You Didn’t Want Me” and a special Christmas medley. These tapings will air beginning in December.
“Live From Blackbird” is produced and directed by Stokes Nielson. Butch Waugh and Jay Frank serve as strategic advisors for the show.
