Last year, for the inaugural “Music City Rodeo,” the headliners were Jelly Roll, Reba McEntire and Tim McGraw. This year, the headliners have been announced as Miranda Lambert, Jon Pardi and Charley Crockett. The Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) Event will return to Bridgestone Arena in Nashville May 28–30; Tim McGraw himself voiced the announcement in an X post. It’s three nights of top-shelf rodeo, and each night features a concert: Miranda on Friday, Charley Crockett on Saturday and Jon Pardi closing out the weekends festivities after the rodeoing is done Sunday night.

Post Malone must have made quite an impression on the NFL brass with his Thanksgiving Day halftime show. Yesterday it was announced that he would be playing Super Bowl weekend, headlining a show called “Bud Light Presents Post Malone & Buddies.” The show happens two days prior to the big game (February 6), and Posty promises that there will be brand new music at the show. “So we’re working and working, but there will be new music by then… Allegedly,” he teased. “Allegedly a hundred percent maybe, definitely. Keep your ears [open].” The show happens Friday evening at Fort Mason in San Francisco, an hour away from Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, where the Super Bowl will be held. And, so far, no word on who “Buddies” is.

As we’re now into December, year-end lists will be coming fast and furious. We already told you yesterday that Morgan Wallen‘s “I’m The Problem” album was the most listened to album on Apple Music over the last year; today comes more news further establishing the country singer as a once-in-a-generation superstar. In Spotify’s “Spotify Wrapped” recap of 2025, “I’m The Problem” was named the #1 most-streamed album in the U.S., beating out other huge names like Kendrick Lamar, Taylor Swift and more. Just as impressive, Wallen’s previous album, 2023’s “One Thing At A Time,” came in at #9 overall for 2025, more than two years after its release and while competing with the newer Morgan Wallen collection.

Tell your country hater friends that you just don’t hear artists in other genres doing this. Chris Young is the latest country singer (following Zach Top, Darius Rucker and Luke Combs, among others) who were not satisfied with the way a performance went. Young’s “It Must Be Christmas Acoustic Tour” came to Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin on Saturday night. While on the surface it seems like a great setup for a holiday concert, a major snowstorm also hit the area, making it difficult for many fans to come out to the show. Some did, and Chris performed for those that braved the conditions, but at the same time, he felt it was less than what he wanted to deliver, for less people than he wanted to play for. Solution? He informed fans on social media that he refused to take a paycheck that night, allowing all ticket holders to get a complete refund. “I waived my fee for this show so all tickets can be refunded. I have instructed the venue to refund tickets to the point of purchase, whether you were there or not,” the singer wrote.
