Acclaimed Actor/Singer Launching New Mini-Series & Soundtrack CD

Nashville, Tenn. (May 22, 2012) -- Academy Award-winning Kevin Costner has kicked off a power-packed week of appearances on network television. The action got underway with yesterday’s appearance on NBC’s The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Here’s the link in case you missed the episode: http://www.nbc.com/the-tonight-show/. Other rounds he’ll be making include ABC’s Good Morning America on Thursday, May 24th at 7:00 am (EDT). Plus, Live! with Kelly later that day (check local listings). On Friday, May 25th, he’ll join the hosts of the morning show, FOX & Friends. Air time is at 6:00 am (EDT). Costner will also stop by for a 2-part episode this week on PBS’ award-winning The Tavis Smiley Show (check local listings). The lineup of television appearances are in celebration of the new History Channel mini-series, Hatfields & McCoys, that he’ll be starring in that’s set to premiere this Memorial Day at 9:00 pm (EDT). It's the true American story of a legendary family feud—one that spanned for decades and nearly launched a war between Kentucky and West Virginia.

The concept CD inspired by the show, Famous for Killing Each Other, features his country/rock band, Kevin Costner & Modern West. Music from the CD is now available on iTunes and Amazon.com.

Kevin Costner & Modern West are gearing up for the summer portion of this year’s concert tour across the U.S. and Canada. The band’s current single, “The Angels Came Down” ranked among the Top 10 on the Billboard Christian Digital Songs Chart. Its third CD, From Where I Stand, is expected to be released in the U.S. during the summer.
