Artists of the week:
1. Keith Urban
2. Kellie Pickler
Summary of the top two below:
Before Keith Urban became a solo artist, he was a guitarist in a band called “The Ranch.” He has a wife named Nicole Kidman who is an actress. He is also a judge on American Idol. His comments on some of the singers are good, and I agree with him. If you are into country, country rock, or country pop then you should listen to his music.
Kellie Pickler started her career in 2006. She was a contestant on American Idol in 2005, finishing sixth place. She sings and writes her songs. I never listened to her songs until now. She is doing good so far. Her song “Small Town Gir”l got over 800,000 copies. For a new country artist that is a lot.
