Stewart recorded several albums from the early ’70s and throughout the ’80s, and was the first country artist to record the popular song, “Rub It In.” Stewart’s recording of the song was a regional hit for two years before a recording by Billy “Crash” Craddock made it a national hit.
Brinker is a singer/songwriter from Stuttgart who has a new song called “The Possum” about the country legend George Jones.
Purdie is a classic country music singer with a touch of jazz and blues thrown in and Kelly is a singer/songwriter from the Longview, Texas, area with a new video called “Lovesick.”
Means and Hankins are members of the local improv comedy troupe Gimme A Second.
Any aspiring singers may audition for future …
