Lucy’s Country Café, a new destination in Music City’s Midtown area, will welcome several artists and songwriters on Wednesday, April 11, 2012 for a special “Words For Warriors” acoustic concert to benefit keeping warriors outdoors.”
 
Every Wednesday, Lucy’s Country Café hosts “Sing For Your Supper,” where diners can expect to see established and aspiring songwriters take the stage.

We hope this will become the first of many annual events at Lucy’s Country Café to support KWO initiatives,” states Bobby Pinson, owner of Lucy’s Country Café. “After seeing first-hand what the outdoor experience brings to life for our warriors, I knew that I needed to become involved in helping this particular charity grow.

It is life-changing.”

Blaster Entertainment, one of the country’s leading talent management and entertainment labels, and award-winning Country music recording artist Hank Williams, Jr. announced that they have entered into a worldwide exclusive three year licensing agreement. The new partnership comes only months before Williams’ highly anticipated new studio album release, which will hit retail in June.   The deal, which was signed this week, licensesBlaster Records, a division of Blaster Entertainment, to distribute Bocephus Records’ new release for the next three years.

“When I started Blaster Records a bit over five years ago, my goal was to create an entertainment company that became home to some of country music’s biggest stars,” said Tom Porter, CEO of Blaster Entertainment. “Hank Williams Jr. is a giant in the business and we are beyond excited to welcome him into the Blaster family.”

“I’m excited about this new album we’ve been working on,” Hank Williams Jr. said.  “When looking at labels, I had several choices.  When my team brought me the opportunity from Blaster and with the soon to be announced distribution deal, it was the best deal in town.  My fans will be able to find my music in places that common folks shop.  This is gonna be fun!”
