Star continuing to rise for Little Big Town
So heres the hoedown, i just watched the CMA’s last week and i was really disappointed to see one of my favorite bands, Equity Records, Little Big Town lose the Horizon Award to newcomer Taylor Swift. But despite that disappointment Little Big Town or LBT as they are know to there fans have plenty to cheer about. In the past year and a half so many good things have happened for this group compromised of Phillip Sweet, Karen Fairchild, Jimi Westbrook and Kimberly Roads. For starters there debut cd, “The Road to Here” was a break-out success right out of the box with the smash single, “Boondocks” with fans still singing along to that one. That year also brought another single, “Bring it On Home”, tours with people like Martina McBride, “The Road to Here” selling like hot cakes, and a slew of award nominations.Little Big Town continues to get better with there second Equity cd, “A Place to Land”. “A Place” showcases there amazing harmonies and musical talent, but in my opinion does a better job than “Road” of showcasing there individual voices, while at the same time showing that they are a group of people that work very well together. LBT also has a lot to be thankful for in regards to there personal life, All four members are now happily married(two, Jimi and Karen to each other) Kimberly just had her first child, daughter Daisy Pearl, and Phillip is expecting a daughter with his wife at the beginning of next year. As we speak LBT is on tour with another one of this bloggers favorites, Sugarland, and Jake Owen for the “CMT on Tour”. So Things are going pretty well for Little Big Town, so they did not win some award, but they continue to make good music and will continue to grow as they become one of country music’s best.
