The Grammy Award-nominated duo of Big Kenny and John Rich, better known as Big & Rich, have made a career of being relatable and musically relevant since exploding into the public consciousness in 2004 with their triple-platinum album “Horse of a Different Color.” The album introduced the world to their signature anthem, “Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy),” and along with their 2007 No. 1 single, “Lost in This Moment,” defined the duo as the rarest of breeds — true country music game changers. Throughout their career, Big & Rich have earned three Grammy Award nominations, along with numerous CMA Awards, ACM Awards and CMT Awards. Known for blending country with rock influences, Big & Rich continue to captivate audiences, proving that their music is as timeless and bold as the duo themselves.
Gretchen Wilson made a seismic impact on country music in 2004 with her debut single, “Redneck Woman,” which spent six weeks at No. 1 and became a cultural phenomenon, catapulting her to stardom. Her debut album, “Here For The Party,” sold over five million copies and produced three additional top-five hits. Known for her powerhouse voice and unapologetic style, Wilson quickly solidified her place as one of country music’s most original and multi-faceted female artists. Along the way, Wilson has garnered numerous ACM Awards, CMA Awards, American Music Awards, Billboard Awards and is a Grammy Award winner and nine-time nominee. Beyond her chart-topping success, she has headlined her own tours and shared the stage with country icons like Brooks & Dunn, Kenny Chesney and Trace Adkins. With a career defined by chart-topping hits and an undeniable stage presence, Wilson remains a trailblazer and an enduring force in the country music scene.
