  • Coy Bowles, Member of the Two-Time GRAMMY Award Winning and Multi
    Coy Bowles, member of the two-time GRAMMY Award winning and multi-platinum Zac Brown Band, will release his first solo album ‘Love Takes Flight’ via Southern Ground Records, Inc. on October 5th. Growing up as an only child in Thomaston, GA, Bowles’ creativity was fueled by his unique ability to engage in a multitude of artistic endeavors. Teaching himself guitar at the age of ten, Coy actively pursued music, prophetically meeting future band mate, Zac Brown, at West Georgia University. It was fellow Zac Brown Band member, Clay Cook, who encouraged Coy to book the studio and record the album. “Life is a ever turning road and love and loss are a part of it. This album is my journal of how the last few years have affected me and how I learned to release and heal while living a life of major success with Zac Brown Band” states Bowles. A combination of loss and heartache are evident themes throughout the album. Specifically, Coy was affected by the losses of a mentor, a student, and a childhood friend. Most of the songs of heartache Bowles wrote on the road with Zac Brown Band. Bowles says “Relationships are hard and so is the loss after the realization that it's never going to work.” Other songs like ‘Love Train’ are about being in love and the world spinning beneath your feet. ‘Follow the Sun’ is about friends of Bowles who joined the military. Musicians on the record include long time Fellowship members Jordan Shalhoup and David Englehard, Atlanta's first call drummer Mark Cobb of Y-O-U and Yacht Rock and Nashville studio and session bassist and producer, Matt Mangano.

Concerts from country’s most buzzed about new artists? Probably not unless you live in Longview, WA and listen to Washington Interstate’s 700W Class A KUKN (Cookin’ Country). Former Westwood One VP/ Programming and Longview native John Paul returned home as the station’s GM last year (CAW 7/21/14) and he’s using some big city radio tricks to shake things up. KUKN launched its quarterly New Faces Of Nashville concert series last December and it’s fast becoming the hottest ticket around while adding nicely to the station’s bottom line. Missing A Beat: “We just don’t get many shows,” Paul explains, citing Longview’s Blake Effect Show: Warner Bros./WMN’s Blake Shelton (c) with proximity to both Portland and Seattle. (l-r) the label’s Kevin Herring, iHeartMedia’s Maynard and “That’s where most people go.

    Toes artist:Zac Brown Band , writer:Zac Brown, Wyatt Durrette, John Driskell Hopkins, Shaw Mullins Thanks to Cy Sineath I got my toes in the water, ass in the sand. Not a worry in the world, a cold beer in my hand. Life is good today, life is good today. Well, the plane touched down just a-bout three o'clock and the city's still on my mind. Bi-kinis and palm trees danced in my head I was still in the baggage line. Concrete and cars are there own prison bars like this life I'm living in. But the plane brought me farther, I'm sur-rounded by water And I'm not going back a-gain. I got my toes in the water, ass in the sand. Not a worry in the world, a cold beer in my hand. Life is good today, life is good today. Adiós and vaya con Dios. Yeah I'm leaving GA. And if it weren't for Tequila and pretty senoritas I'd have no reason to stay. Adiós and vaya con Dios. Yeah I'm leaving GA. Gonna lay in the hot sun and roll a big fat one and grab my guitar and play. Four days flew by like a drunk Friday night as the summer drew to an end. They can't believe that I just couldn't leave And I bid a-dieu to my friends. 'Cause my bartender she's from the islands, her body's been kissed by the sun. And coconut replaces the smell of the bar And I don't know if it's her or the Rum.

    zac brown band the foundation full album download Zac Brown Band. After an eventful year on the charts and on the road, GRAMMY-Award winning Zac Brown Band has proven that "overnight success" can be years in the making. New fans drawn by the irresistible hit singles, the awe-inspiring musicianship and dynamic live shows might have thought the Zac Brown Band emerged from nowhere. In fact, the band has paid its dues for years and put in its time for just this moment. It may have happened quickly, but it's definitely built to last. Zac Brown Band's second major label studio album 'You Get What You Give' (Atlantic/Southern Ground Artists, Inc.) was released on September 21st, 2010 and debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart. The album features guest appearances by Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett and as Zac explained to Associated Press, "It's a defining record. Every step of it's done the right way and I expect people are really going to love this record and see the depth of our musicianship, we're always growing. Not that we've arrived at any grand finale or anything, but the progress from this last record to this one, it's tremendous and I'm proud of it." On the eve of the release from the famed Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Zac Brown Band streamed their live show - dubbed "Best. Concert. Ever." (Cleveland Plain Dealer) - to fans everywhere via ZacBrownBand.com powered by Ustream. Touting nearly a half-million live views, the concert was among the most-viewed on Ustream.

  • Hop's Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Pizza Ingredients: Method
    Hop’s Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Pizza Recipe courtesy of John Driskell Hopkins, guitar/bass/vocals for Zac Brown Band. This is a super easy pizza recipe that my family uses and frequently modifies. Serves a family of eight or one hungry daddy! Ingredients: 1 lb pizza dough 4 oz chopped chicken 2 oz chopped ham 4 oz chopped pineapple Your favorite BBQ Sauce ¼ cup shredded cheddar ½ cup shredded mozzarella Method Fire up the EGG and get her hot! About 500-600 F degrees indirect. I soaked my chicken breast in pineapple juice and BBQ sauce for an hour before I threw it on the EGG. Once it was done, I chopped off what I needed for the pie and ate the rest. Next, I installed the plate setter and pizza stone. Heat the stone before putting your pizza in the Egg. If you’re good at making your own pizza dough, then you’re ahead of me already. I got mine from the grocery store and rolled it out over a bed of finely ground corn meal so it doesn’t stick to the counter; I prefer cornmeal to flour. Throw some corn meal on the hot stone in the EGG and place the dough on it, close the lid and cook the dough for about 2 minutes per side. This will make a crispier crust and will make it easier to handle with the ingredients on it. Remove the dough from the EGG and spread on the BBQ sauce. Now you’re ready for the ham, chicken, pineapple and cheese.
