Cup of Country- 4/ 16/15

BRIAN KELLEY of FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE was not exaggerating when he said TYLER HUBBARD’s bachelor party would have dirt bikes, whiskey, cigars, and a lot of fires.  If anything, he was way underselling it.

It went down last weekend in Nashville, and Tyler posted a picture on his Instagram of all the guys standing around a huge bonfire.  He also included an exhausting rundown of the action.

ERIC CHURCH is launching his own furniture line called Highway to Home.  It’s a business that he knows a lot about.  He says, quote, “Highway to Home is a natural extension of my family heritage.

“My dad was in the industry.  My first job was in a furniture plant, so yes, it’s in my blood.  Staying connected with my roots has always been important to me . . . my history and connection runs deep in this business.”

He’s also keeping it real.  A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.  The line will officially launch in October.

Speaking of Eric:  You may have heard how old-school he is when it comes to albums.  He believes they should be listened to in their entirety.  He says, quote, “It’s an album.  It’s start to finish.  Shuffle is going to aggravate me . . . because it’s not right.  It needs to be listened to as an album.”

CHRIS YOUNG did a stripped-down version of “Lonely Eyes” during an episode of ACM Sessions.

BRETT ELDREDGE needed help getting the wrinkles out of his T-shirt, so he had someone spray wrinkle remover-type stuff on it . . . and then he danced.  He posted a video on Instagram and wrote, “This is what I like to call the ‘de-wrinkle spray dance’.”
