With their unexpected Single of the Year victory for "I Run To You" and displacing Rascal Flatts as the Vocal Group of the Year, Lady Antebellum leads this week's chart rundown as the trio leads country music's Hot 200 Albums chart dominance along with a few others.

For one of their tourstops as co-headliners of CMT On Tour 2009, Jamey Johnson and Randy Houser played a four hour set of country music for a loyal, rowdy batch of country music fans at the Tacoma, WA-based Emerald Queen Casino.

Listen to a track from Jamey Johnson's original self-released version of That Lonesome Song.

Taylor Swift seemingly shocked the country music world when she took home the award for Female Vocalist of the Year at last night's 43rd CMA Awards.  The 19 year-old superstar broke records once again by taking that award and three more awards.

Well folks, here you have it.  The final two categories to predict before tonight’s CMA Awards telecast (ABC TV 8pm E/W).  We’ve saved what are usually the two most ‘important’ categories, Album of the Year and Entertainer of the Year, for last.

Carrie Underwood is this week's chart queen as her third album Play On debuts on the top spot of the charts.  Teen Queen Taylor Swift's venerable Fearless album follows next and this week saw a remarkable sales growth for virtually every country release.

Here is our fourth of five installments of predictions for the 43rd CMA Awards show that will be broadcast Wednesday, November 11, 2009 on ABC TV.  These two categories may just be the hardest categories to predict as each song nominated is worthy of the nod.

Jamey Johnson has been crowned the savior of traditional country music in some circles but the announcement today of his duet with Kid Rock for a performance on the Wednesday November 11, 2009 telecast is sure to ruffle some feathers.

Here's Randy Houser with a performance video for his Top 5 hit "Boots On."

Jamey Johnson's third single for Mercury finds him continuing in the same deep, emotional tone set by That Lonesome Song, a modern-day outlaw album, if there ever was one. Should and will this single find an audience at country radio?
