THERE'S ONLY ONE LUKE BRYAN ON FACEBOOK
One "Official" country star Luke Bryan that is. It seems that some people are posting fake profiles claiming to be our favorite performer from the Dodge County Fair last year!
Luke posted this on his official Facebook page: "Hey y'all, PLEASE SHARE THIS! I just want to let everybody in on something. There have been a lot of issues with fake Facebook profiles of me. This is the only profile I use for correspondence. I don't have a personal page. If you are friends with another Luke Bryan, unfriend them and don't believe any of the messages."

COUNTRY ARTISTS IN THE NATIONAL RECORDING REGISTRY
Every year 25 recordings from a variety of genres are chosen for their cultural, artistic and historical value to be entered into the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress.
This year Dolly Parton's "Coat of Many Colors," from 1971, will be added. A press release says the song "affectionately recounts an impoverished childhood in the hills of Tennessee that was made rich by the love of her family."
Patsy Montana's "I Want To Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart" will also be added.
And a side non-country note that makes me smile. A Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack has also been added.

JOE NICHOLS NEEDS A NEW LABEL
Joe told us via Twitter that he is no longer a member of the Showdog-Universal label. He tweeted, "I'd like to thank ShowDog universal for doing the right thing IM FREE!!!!!" He did say he is "very thankful for Show-Dog, and what they have done for [him.]" Joe said their "relationship has just reached its limits."
Hmmm - that is interesting. Many people speculating that it was a less than amicable split. Of course, Joe was originally with Universal South when they merged with ShowDog. He had much success with Universal, but since going with the merge he has only had one album, with one singled released. So it does seem understandable that he is excited to embark on new adventures - things obviously weren't working there.
He does want to make a new record soon.

JANA KRAMER'S ALBUM
Her self-titled debut comes out on June 6th and will feature 11 songs. Jana said it was tough to decide what to put on the album, "I lean towards writing a lot of ballads. It's sometimes easier to write that but, you can't have too many ballads on an album. So we had to have a perfect marriage of all the songs together. So it was tough!"
Jana Kramer track listing:
