Luke Bryan and Luke Combs have a new duet called "Finders Keepers" on Bryan's upcoming album Signs, which drops on Sept. 18. While the two country superstars haven't yet announced any plans to perform it together, I have a pretty good idea of when that could happen. I recently caught up with Bryan on Taste of Country Nights and asked him if we could eventually see him and Combs perform the song together onstage one day. His answer was basically, yes -- it's just a matter of finding the right time.

These days, the algorithm has figured out that I'm from Montana. So when I'm on TikTok, I'm seeing a lot of videos from people traveling to Montana. They're coming to Bozeman, Big Sky, Whitefish, and other parts of the state. They're eating, sightseeing, and experiencing Montana. A lot of these people seem to be rich and are using Montana as their playground. I scroll past those pretty quickly. Then this guy from North Carolina popped up on my feed as he was experiencing Montana.

There’s something special when a Montana-born musician who has gone on to become a major name in music returns home to where it all started. We’ve seen it with Jeff Ament. Whether he’s coming back with Pearl Jam or playing with one of his other projects, there’s something extra cool about seeing a Montana-born musician who has gone on to become a major name in music return to the place where it all started. We’ve seen it with Tim Montana, too.

Even if Darius Rucker knew that his song "I Believe" was coming out at a time when lots of people would need comfort, he couldn't have possibly predicted just how timely its message would be. The singer, who called "I Believe" his "love letter to America," surely knew that the song was entering a world that feels more divided every day.

Missoula, MT (KGVO-AM News) - On September 4, 2026, four Missoula Police Department Officers were dispatched to the area of Howard Raser and Grant Creek. The reporting party, Jane Doe, reported her boyfriend, Gregery Johnson, was inside her trailer and threatening to destroy it. Law enforcement was aware that Johnson had multiple appearance warrants and a caution for being known to possess knives. The officers arrived and observed Johnson standing at the door and moving in and out of the trailer.

Max McNown's Grand Ole Opry debut didn't exactly go according to plan. Before he ever stepped onto that legendary stage and into the circle, McNown found himself sitting in his broken-down car outside the Opry, and to make matters worse, he was at the wrong entrance. Speaking with McNown on Taste of Country Nights he tells me, "I broke down in the parking entry of my Opry debut. Not even the artist's entry. I went the wrong way." Yep.

Gavin Adcock and Zach Bryan have had a pretty complicated relationship over the past year. Still, Adcock's latest comments suggest there may be more to their story than another round of country music beef.
