Carly Pearce took to Instagram on Thursday to open up to fans about a heart condition she's been diagnosed with.

"I have always been transparent and honest about every part of my life, so I feel like this deserves the same honesty. You guys know that I’ve been dealing with some health issues, and through that, I have developed something called pericarditis, which is a heart issue," Carly tells fans in a video.

"I've been working with doctors and talking to my cardiologist, and I still wanna be out on the road. It's really important to me, but we have all decided that it is in my best interest as I’m healing to alter my shows a little bit. So, if my shows look a little bit different, just know it’s because I have to keep my heart rate under control right now," she shares. "That doesn’t mean I’m not gonna be completely fine, it just means right now I’ve gotta really take this seriously."

Like millions of people, Bailey jokes that he has to work hard because his dog Marley has become accustomed to a certain lifestyle, and he has to maintain that for her.

“Yeah, Marley’s this bougie dog now. Marley’s a bougie little girl. She’s gotta have all the toys. She can’t just have a couple now. She gotta have all of them. You know, if we put her toys up in the basket, she has to get all of them out again. You know, she is a very expensive little dog. But that’s the reason I keep working hard. And the reason I’m going to continue to work hard so I can take care of my dog.”

Luke Bryan has discovered “Huntin’, Fishin’ and Lovin’ Every Day,” comes with some personal consequences as he recently found he’s allergic to bass.

He’s found the reason he comes home from fishing trips with red eyes, swollen hands, and a stuffy nose. “If I look like I’ve been smoking pot, that’s not true, I’ve been catching bass,” Luke laughed before detailing his rather serious bass allergy. “If I touch a bass, my eyes will get red, my hands will swell if I have to take the hook out.”

The discovery comes after years of suffering for Luke, who thought he was simply experiencing normal allergies from being outside. “I spent years not knowing. My dad would take me on these fishing trips and I would be in the back of the boat like wheezing, maybe in need of an epipen. But my Dad was just like [suck it up], we just thought it was allergies [to] like, the trees, but it’s actually touching the bass.”

There has been a lot of chatter back and forth about the recently released Randy Travis song, "Where That Came From." Whether or not it's good for country music, or it can cause more harm than good.

Now, Luke Combs is commenting about the use of A.I. to create the new track.

The song makes use of artificial intelligence, as Travis can no longer sing or speak clearly after a stroke in 2013.

Combs gave thoughts on the use of A.I. in country music, in general, and his thoughts it specifically being utilized for the new Travis song.

"I think that's the best used case scenario for what it has the potential to do."

Combs then spoke on the potential hazards of using A.I.

"I think it does open the door for, ya know, some things that wouldn't be used in the best way, but I think that is the best version of something that it can be used for."

As a country music fan through and through, Combs' on his personal feelings and thoughts when he first heard the new Travis song he replied, "I was super excited to hear that. It sounds incredible. But, yea, it is, I think a razor's edge for sure."

"Where That Came From" was created using more than 40 vocal tracks from Randy Travis' catalog and a vocal mix from singer James Dupre.

Country stars including Cody Johnson, Garth Brooks, Carrie Underwood and Clay Walker have also come out in support of the song. Their response to hearing Travis sing again was often emotional.

Keith Urban is ready to add 'driving instructor' to his resume. He and wife Nicole Kidman's oldest daughter, Sunday Rose, turns 16 this year, which means it's time for her to start driving.

And Urban says he will teach his daughter to drive, not Kidman. He explained that he has more patience than his wife when it comes to things like that.

Plus, he's not scared.

"Stuff's gonna happen, hopefully if they go slow enough ... someone said to me at the time, if you go slow, small things happen. If you go fast, big things happen," Urban relates.

Megan Moroney and Nate Smith were chosen as New Female and New Male Artist of the Year, respectively, with Tigirlily Gold winning New Duo or Group

When the concert you wanted to go to sells out here in America, the obvious choice is to fly across the world to see it in Europe, right? That's the case for many Taylor Swift fans anyway. Word has gotten out that many fans are flying to Europe to catch the much anticipated show, as the concert tickets are more affordable. Not sure if they're including the travel cost in this equation. Nonetheless, her Stockholm show is excpected to have over 10,000 American tourists in attendance. One fan went on record saying that they had the option of buying one $1,500-$3,000 ticket to see her show here in America, or spend around the same amount on a round trip plane ticket, hotel, and the ticket to the show. That's what we call dedication! 

It's been said that Florida Georgia Line's FLG House was one of the first to rise to fame as one of Nashville's first Celebrity-Themed bars, but as of last weekend was the first to close. The group's restaurant in Nashville took an unexpected turn when Google updated their listing to 'Permanently Closed,' redirecting viewers to TC Restaurant Group, which doesn't mention the groups bar at all. It's speculated that due to the groups split, back in 2022, they've closed the eatery in relation to the feud between the former friends/band mates. Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley have not been seen in public together since their split. 

The Garth Brooks catalog rolls out on vinyl, with “No Fences,” “The Chase,” “In Pieces,” “Fresh Horses” and the more recent “Triple Live” available now. “I owe you guys an entire Garth Brooks career of vinyl,” Brooks said on Monday’s “Inside Studio G.” “So, this’ll be the start of it. My job is to try and get everything we’ve done on vinyl … including the Chris Gaines project.”
