Check out all the photos from a huge day at the Big O Music Fest, August 18th in Owensboro, featuring Blake Shelton, Tracy Lawrence, Jo Dee Messina, Gloriana, LoCash Cowboys, JoAnna Smith, Jaclyn Graves, and more!

Today, I had the chance to talk to one of the first guys I was a fan of in country music, Tracy Lawrence.  He's headed to the Big O Music Fest this Saturday along with Blake Shelton and many others.  Listen as we talk about what Tracy's been up to, plus hear some exclusive content for WKDQ.com including his favorite touring partners and if he has any hard feelings against his Brothers of the Sun.

99.5 WKDQ is always giving you big ways to win and coming soon you'll be able to choose one of five destinations on all corners of the US map, if you are our big winner, but you have to be a WKDQ Country Club Member.  To celebrate, all this weekend, we're taking you around the country with songs that mention states, cities, and places around the great USA.

We announced last week that Blake Shelton would be headlining this year's Big O Music Fest, August 18th in Owensboro, and now we can announce another name to the lineup.  With nine number one hits to her name, Jo Dee Messina will be joining the already huge bill of artists set to appear at the concert.

For the fourth year, The Big O Music Fest returns to Reid's Orchard in Owensboro.  This year's event will be on August 18th featuring headliner, ACM Entertainer of the Year nominee, Blake Shelton!

You heard the song this afternoon during my show, as one of the number one songs from the last 20 years.  Tracy Lawrence hit number one in 1995 with "Texas Tornado."

Tracy Lawrence has made a tradition out of helping the hungry in the Nashville area each Thanksgiving.  He recently completed the 6th annual Tracy Lawrence Turkey Fry for the Nashville Rescue Mission.

Father's Day is this Sunday and there are a ton of songs that speak to and from dads in country music.  This one  from Tracy Lawrence slipped under the rug for most country listeners just a few years ago, but I understand it now more than I ever did back then.  Check out the video to "Til I Was a Daddy Too."

Time for another Lost Hit found in the depths of my CD collection.  This song is just one of the many powerful country tunes Tracy Lawrence gave us in the early 90's.  Do you miss this one too?
