Kathy Mattea’s Coal-Mining Album, Montgomery Gentry With Special Guests

Jenna Vercher | December 18th, 2006 Email Share

  • Kathy Mattea will begin working on an album of coal-mining songs in January, as she comes from a family of coal-miners. Marty Stuart will produce the project. “He’s got the chops, he’s got the pedigree and he understands the music,” Kathy says. “I love Marty, and we’ve always gotten along really well. It’s a good chance to collaborate and have a lot of fun.”
    Welcome back Kathy, we’ve missed you.
  • Lonestar will perform a tribute to the soldiers and their families after the 2007 U.S. Army All-American Bowl on January 6. They will also perform a forty-five minute concert following the Bowl at the Alamodome to honor the United States Army.
  • CountryNation.com reports Montgomery Gentry, with special guests Gary Allan, Styx, and Rodney Atkins will ring in 2007 at Rupp Arena this New Year’s Eve. Tickets are available at Ticketmaster.com, Livenation.com, or the Rupp Arena Box Office. You can also charge by phone at 859-281-6644. Sounds like a good time to me, wish I could attend.
