country music

One of the perks for Bethany, Richie and me get for getting up early everyday to wake up the Capital District is getting to talk to some of our favorite country music stars. Lady Antebellum more than qualify as a favorite for all of us! Today we were lucky enough to get a call from all three of them as they are celebrating the release of their latest album, "747".

I stumbled upon this photo while doing "hard drive" fall cleanup.  This one I won't delete.

Today we had a rare opportunity to spend a lot of time with an artist. Hunter Hayes joined the "Sean and Richie Show" for over an hour and when I say joined I mean it. Not only was he very quick-witted and easy to listen to speak, but he also was kind enough to participate in "Write a song Wednesday." Normally I don't give my personal opinion about an interview, maybe I should

I have been digging deep into the biography of singer-songwriter Hunter Hayes in preparation for his appearance on our show this coming "Write A Song Wednesday".  Here are some fun facts.

This weekend, "The Sean & Richie Show" is headed to Nashville to meet Tim McGraw, and we want YOU to help us interview him!

Did you get to the Rascal Flatts show at SPAC Sunday night? Well if you did, I know you got to see a great show.

The first thing I  think everyone wants to know is if Sugarland have broken up,they have not. I even asked Kristian today when he visited us at WGNA if there is any bad blood there and he assured me there wasn't. They are just both in a break from their album schedule and have like many other artist realized they just can't stop creating.

I guess I'm not much of an A capella fan by and large, and I certainly am NOT a fan of anyone remaking such an iconic song, but there is something about this video that made me want to share it with you.

If you missed "The Sean and Richie Show" today, you missed one of our favorite acts at this year's Countryfest calling in to talk about what a great time it was. Fortunately, I have it here to share with you again.

This was admittedly pretty sneaky and "ballsy" on my part, but I had to do it.  He was standing right in front of me, for God's sakes!

Remember Dwight Yoakam?  If you don't know him as a country singer, you'll know him as an actor.  Now he's hitting the remake trail

Here are a few shots as I walked around in the crowd on this incredible day at the Schaghticoke Fairgrounds. My apologies in advance for stepping on blankets, tripping on your chairs and bothering you in general.
