Brad Paisley is a man of his word. The hitmaker told rising country star Sarah Darling -- who narrowly missed the chance to move on in 'Rising Star' -- that she could share the stage with him at the Grand Ole Opry, and the two singers did just that on Friday (July 18).
Sarah Darling is a rising country star in Nashville, so it's only fitting that she would audition on the debut of ABC's new show 'Rising Star' on Sunday (June 22). And judge Brad Paisley had a very strong opinion on Darling's performance.
Once upon a time, way back in 2005, Carrie Underwood was an up-and-coming female country artist, fresh off her win on 'American Idol.' Now an established name in country music (with the Grammys to prove it), the singer dishes on her favorite up-and-coming country gals.
Dylan Scott managed a 4th win in a close battle with Sarah Darling tallying over 1,000 votes. Dylan now goes into a final battle in the Country Whuppin'. Win, and he's in the Hall of Fame. Lose, and we'll have a new champion in the form of Love and Theft!
Dylan Scott is riding high with a 3rd win and he's now just two wins away from the Country Whuppin' Hall of Fame. His next challenge come in the form of a young lady who has already graced the Grand Ole Opry Stage nearly 40 times. It's Sarah Darling and her poolside, summer anthem, 'Little Umbrellas.'
2012 was quite a year for country music. A lot of things are certainly changing. Some like it and some don't but change is inevitable. So what can we expect in 2013? I have some ideas.
Sarah Darling might not be a familiar name to you just yet, unless of course you are a regular listener of the Grand Ole Opry. In just over a year, Sarah has been on the Opry stage more times than most superstars ever do.
