Music City Minute: The Grammys, LANCO, Jason Aldean, Chris Young

Three of the artists who performed at last year's Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas will team up at the Grammy Awards to honor victims of concert tragedies. Eric Church, Maren Morris and Brothers Osborne are all slated to take the Grammy stage on January 28, coming together for a touching tribute in honor of those affected by the tragic shooting at the Las Vegas festival as well as other victims of concert violence. During the night, the Recording Academy will also take a moment to honor the victims lost to gun violence and terrorism at live music events over the course of the past year.

These artists join previously announced Grammy performers, including Little Big Town, Elton John, U2, Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars, Pink and more.

Hosted by TV personality James Corden, the 60th Grammy Awards will be broadcast live on CBS from New York's Madison Square Garden on January 28 at 6:30 PM. It's definitely going to be an emotional night for everyone, including Eric Church, who says he feels a personal connection to the people that lost their lives in Vegas because a lot of them frequently attended Eric's shows.

As LANCO releases their debut album, Hallelujah Nights today, the band's Brandon Lancaster talks about how the record's title track sets its tone:

He says, "It kind of encompasses the theme of the entire album which is no matter what situation you're in, looking at the moments you're given and realizing that they're special and the people around you and the things you're going through, you know, you won't get those back and to make the most of them. That's to us what a 'hallelujah night' is."

Jason Aldean announced a new tour yesterday! The "High Noon Neon Tour," kicks off in Kansas City, Missouri, on May 10. The new tour will hit 34 cities across the country through the fall and will feature special guests Luke Combs and Lauren Alaina. Jason named the tour after a song that appears on his next album, which he says reminds him of the bars he played in Georgia when he was cutting his teeth. Tickets for select dates go on sale beginning January 26. He’ll make a stop in Dallas July 28th.

It turns out wrestler turned actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is a big fan of Chris Young's music. The revelation of The Rock's love for his music came after the he responded to a tweet from Chris which praised the actor's new film, Jumanji. After thanking Chris for his kind words about his new film, The Rock opened up about what one of the country star's songs did for him. He tweeted, "For the record, 'The Man I Want to Be' came along at the perfect time. Helped me get thru some tough times but that's for another conversation over tequila."

Responding to The Rock on Instagram, Chris soon assured The Rock that he'd take him up on the offer. Chris said, "Yeah... I'll drink tequila with @therock anytime... also, go see #Jumanji it's too good."
