Garth Brooks is making sure he’s got the right kind of neighbors for his soon-to-open Nashville bar, “Friends In Low Places.” While the bar is under construction at 411 Broadway in Nashville, right next door is going to be a brand new substation for Music City’s finest – and Garth is apparently footing the bill.

In a Tweet sent out yesterday, the Metro Nashville PD said, “Chief Drake today joined @garthbrooks for a great walk through of his Friends in Low Places Bar under construction at 411 Broadway. As part of the renovation, Garth is providing the MNPD a substation in a building adjacent to his. We are so proud of this partnership!” Talk about making sure your new place has plenty of security!

According to the website for Garth’s new venture, the bar is “opening soon.”

Zach Bryan is a must-follow on social media – for his fans or for anyone that enjoys rootsy, stripped down country music. The rising star consistently posts clips of acoustic performances – sometimes of songs fans know, sometimes of unreleased tunes.

Wednesday, Zach posted an intriguing acoustic track called “I Remember Everything,” and whether it’s going to be on his upcoming album (rumored to be titled “Writers And Fighters”) is unknown – but we can hope.

Tim McGraw played an intimate concert at the legendary Whisky A Go Go in Los Angeles Monday – and was surprised when he was gifted with a very special bracelet from a young fan.

“My little pal over here, she made this bracelet for me. It’s got my wife and all my daughters’ initials on it, so thank you Berkeley. I appreciate it,” the country superstar said, showing off his new jewelry. Pointing to the little girl, Tim also shared with the crowd some advice he had passed onto Berkeley earlier in the night. “Remember what I told you earlier, right? Be strong and fierce, right? Be a woman who goes out and conquers the world.”

Once Tim had thanked his young fan, he went on to play a quick 60 minute show that included some of his biggest hits and some new music from his upcoming “Standing Room Only” album.

Time flies – and if you need proof, just know that the Shania Twain/Billy Currington duet “Party For Two” came out almost twenty years ago – 2004. The single was Shania’s last platinum single and hit the US and Canadian country Top Ten.

So it was a welcome trip back for Shania and Billy as they joined forces on stage at the Faster Horses Festival in Michigan last week to perform the song for the first time since it they performed it on “Good Morning America” in November, 2004. “Billy, let me ask you one more time. Billy, are you ready for a party?” Shania asked as the two settled into their old groove.
