Around this time every year, country artists are home with there families and are getting some well deserved r&r, so there's not much to talk about for country music news. Since there's really not much going on, I thought I'd take this slow time to look ahead to what's going on in 2012 as far as CD releases & concerts in our area. Also want to remind you about WXBM's Christmas Open House with Marty & Lindsey Marie, this Friday the 23rd. Feel free to stop by the WXBM studio between 6am-10am and grab something to eat & drink. We'll be cookin' up Thompson Sausage, Brew Hart BBQ, Biscuits from Waffle House in Milton, Maxwell House coffee, Pepsi soft drinks & more! We'll also have free Christmas ornaments while they last and a big "thank you" to Boyette's for providing the facilities again this year. Hope to see you at the open house.
Martina McBride will release a Greatest Hits compilation next month called "Hits & More".
