This blog is dedicated to the content that I wrote during my sophomore year at Belmont University (2010-2011). The articles were written for the Country Music News website called Country Hound or for the Belmont student run newspaper called The Vision .

All of the items were subject for being published and written by myself, Valerie W. This site will no longer be updated.

The Judds Are Back

Country music’s most loved mother-daughter duo, The Judds, are back with the release of a new album, “I Will Stand By You: The Essential Collection.” The newest compilation of The Judds will feature twelve classics, as well as two new songs, “I Will Stand By You and “Back Home,” which features Alison Krauss. The Essential Collection is in stores now.

These new recordings mark the first time the two have recorded together since 2004, the last time being when Naomi and Wynonna recorded “Flies On The Butter,” which is also in the new album. Other tracks on the album include fan favorites such as, “Mama He’s Crazy,” “Grandpa (Tell Me ‘Bout The Good Old Days),” “Turn It Loose,” and their anthem, “Love can Build A Bridge.”

Recently, The Judds were recognized as the most award-winning female duo in ACM history. They also joined the ranks of Miranda Lambert, Jennifer Nettles, Carrie Underwood, Loretta Lynn, Martina McBride and Reba for the ACM Girls Night Out: Superstar Women of Country, which will air on CBS April 22.

The Judds will also be appearing in their own television documentary entitled “The Judds.” This show will appear on the new Oprah Winfrey network (OWN). The show will capture Wynonna and Naomi’s moments together as they experience and perform on their first tour in 10 years. The 2-hour premiere of “The Judds” starts Sunday April 9 at 9 p.m. EST on OWN.
