Keith Anderson, record label part ways
Oklahoma singer-songwriter Keith Anderson and his record label, Columbia Nashville, have parted ways, CMT.com is reporting.
Anderson, who was born and raised in Miami, released his second album, “C’Mon,” in 2008 and reached No. 2 on Billboard’s country charts with the ballad “I Still Miss You.”
His 2005 album, “Three Chord Country and American Rock & Roll,” which was released on Arista Nashville, was certified gold. His other singles include “Pickin’ Wildflowers,” “XXL,” “Every Time I Hear Your Name,” “Sunday Morning in America,” She Could’ve Been Mine.” His single “Podunk” included a video filmed in his hometown.
He also penned Big & Rich’s hit ”Lost in This Moment” and the Grammy-nominated George Jones/Garth Brooks duet, “Beer Run.”
It’s been a tough year for Anderson, who underwent vocal cord surgery in January 2009. Hopefully, his fortunes will get brighter soon.

Rascal Flatts’ Joe Don Rooney discusses Keith Anderson, Steve Gaines and other famed Ottawa County folks

Rascal Flatts Week continues here at BAM’s Blog, as the band, including guitarist Joe Don Rooney of Picher, will play a show Friday at the Buffalo Run Casino in Miami, OK. That venue is just three miles from Picher.
Rooney did a special conference call with Oklahoma and Missouri media last week to talk about the homecoming show, his family and his music. I’ll have much more from the interview and other information about the band in the coming days.
Among the topics of conversation last week with Rooney: Other famous folks from Ottawa County.
Keith Anderson
He grew up about 10 miles from another country music artist, Keith Anderson, who was raised in Miami. Rooney laughingly said he and the “I Still Miss You” singer-songwriter still live about 10 miles apart, only now in Nashville, Tenn.
“Hard work and perseverance sometimes really pays off in big ways, and Keith’s a great guy, what a sweetheart of a guy. I’ve known him for a lot of years obviously, and so proud for him, too, because he has worked very hard. You know, he lived down in Texas for many years and got to be friends with a lot of people in radio before he was even an artist in Nashville. And he worked his tail off and I’m so proud for him and his success.
“Every now and then, we get to run into each other and see each other and it’s great to be able to talk about all of this and to just catch up with him. Because he’s somebody who can absolutely relate to where I come from and where I’ve been, and I can do the same for him. It’s good to have that ’cause there’s … not too many people in Nashville … who can relate to me like that and vice versa. So, I’m really proud for him, he’s going to do well for a lot of years, no doubt about it.”
Steve Gaines solo album “One in the Sun”
One of Rooney’s musical influences as he took up the guitar as a teen was the late Steve Gaines, the Lynyrd Skynyrd axe man who grew up in Miami. Gaines and his sister Cassie, a backup singer for the band, died in the 1977 plane crash that also killed the band’s singer-songwriter Ronnie Van Zant.
“I had a hero that I never got to meet, obviously, but I learned so much about him named Steve Gaines. He and his sister Cassie grew up in Miami. And I started getting into Skynyrd obviously at a young age, and I had a friend who knew Steve pretty well and gave me a bunch of these - it was back when there were cassette tapes still - gave me a bunch of these cassette tapes of these recordings – some of you probably don’t remember that, cassette tapes (laughs) – … of his old band, Crawdad, that a lot of people don’t know about,” Rooney said.
“And man, I used to listen to these old club gig recordings, and man, I just remember his playability was so amazing. He could really stretch out and his singing was great, too, I mean, a lot of people don’t realize he was a fantastic singer. And I was real inspired by him at a really young age, and I still have those copies of those tapes and stuff. And now since then, my friend, I’ve run into several times the last 10 years, he’s given me all these CDs now, so I have it on CD, which is even better.”

Rooney continued, “But yeah, people like that that come from that area are just fantastic. … There’s so many people that have come from that area that have done so well. Like (University of Oklahoma Heisman Trophy winner) Steve Owens, jeez almighty. Wonderful talent. I’m proud to be an Okie, no doubt about it, and proud to be from that area.”

NASHVILLE – The 2009 CMA Music Festival, recently named “the country’s premiere Country Music festival” by the New York Times, is planning a full range of experiences for fans, with more than 100 hours of live music, celebrity events, family activities, and more. The event, now in its 38th year, will take place over four days – June 11-14 in downtown Nashville.

A dozen great Oklahoma country songs
Since I’ve dubbed it Oklahoma Country Music Day here at BAM’s Blog, I’ve compiled a list of an even dozen of my favorite country songs that reference my fantastic home state. With Oklahoma’s strong country music tradition, it’s no surprise that this list is just a small sampling, listed in no particular order and dictated entirely by my mood.
1. “You’re the Reason God Made Oklahoma,” David Frizzell and Shelly West. Current Oklahoma country music stars Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert, sweethearts who live on neighboring Tishomingo farms, do a really great version of this heartfelt ballad, as you can see from this YouTube video of CMT’s 100 Greatest Duets countdown.
2. “Outlaw Band,” Jason Boland and the Stragglers. Boland and Co. close their latest album ”Comal County Blue” with this song penned by the late Bob Childers, Randy Crouch and Layle Stagner.
3. “Boys from Oklahoma,” Cross Canadian Ragweed.
4. “Okie from Muskogee,” Merle Haggard. Check out this YouTube video of a Merle and Tammy Wynette duet to this classic country song, which you already knew was going on this list. (Yes, the placement of No. 3 and 4 back to back is deliberate. Yes, I have a cheeky sense of irony.)
5. “Honky Tonk U,” Toby Keith. He outlines how he broke into the music biz, starting with summers at his grandmother’s night club on the Oklahoma-Arkansas line.
6. “Oklahoma Swing,” Vince Gill and Reba McEntire opened the Oklahoma Centennial Spectacular with this terrific two-stepper, as you can see in this YouTube video.
7. “Oklahoma-Texas Line,” Rascal Flatts.
8. “Does the Wind Still Blow in Oklahoma,” Reba McEntire and Ronnie Dunn.
9. “In Oklahoma,” Cross Canadian Ragweed. Cody Canada co-wrote this musical history lesson with Stoney LaRue.
10. “Oklahoma Breakdown,” Hosty Duo. LaRue covered this smoking song on his album “Live at Billy Bob’s Texas,” and you can see his rendition (or at least part of it) in this YouTube video.
11. “I Ain’t in Checotah Anymore,” Carrie Underwood. I’m rounding out this list with a pair of songs by fellow small-town Oklahoma kids paying homage to their hometowns.
12. “Podunk,” Keith Anderson. Check out Miami, OK, in this video, from YouTube.

Keith Anderson playing tonight at Tulsa’s Cain’s Ballroom
From Friday’s Weekend Look section of The Oklahoman.
Oklahoma native’s path may lead to stardom
Road takes Keith Anderson to Nashville
Standing on stage at Oklahoma City’s Zoo Amphitheatre, country singer-songwriter Keith Anderson starts talking about the time-honored tradition of cruising Main Street on Friday nights.
“It doesn’t matter where we go – New York, Florida, Nebraska … wherever – everybody knows about dragging Main if they’re from a small town,” said Anderson, before launching into his mischievous down-home hit “Pickin’ Wildflowers.”
The Miami, OK, native made his share of spins around Main and then took several strange turns on his way to Nashville, Tenn., and a life on the road.
For the past week, the up-and-coming country star has spent much of his time in his home state, playing shows last weekend at the zoo and Buffalo Run Casino in his hometown. He plays at 8 tonight at historic Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa.
“I wouldn’t change what I’m doing for the world,” Anderson said in a recent phone interview from Tampa, Fla.
Anderson’s path out of Miami first went to Oklahoma State University, where he played baseball and was scouted by the Kansas City Royals. When a shoulder injury ended his athletic aspirations, he earned his engineering degree.
He also rehabbed his shoulder by taking up bodybuilding, eventually placing second in the Mr. Oklahoma contest and earning a personal trainer certification.
Anderson, 40, landed out of college at a Dallas engineering firm, while continuing to work on his lifelong passion: songwriting. The desire to write and perform music led him to quit his lucrative career for gigs at Grapevine Opry, Six Flags Over Texas and even as a singing telegram.
He moved to Nashville in 1998 and worked as a bad waiter, eventually building a career and catalog as a songwriter. He got a big boost in 2001, when fellow OSU grad Garth Brooks and country legend George Jones recorded his song “Beer Run” as a duet. It not only was a hit, it was nominated for a Grammy.
“It changed my life, and it also changed my checking account balance and my address,” Anderson said with a laugh.
His 2005 debut album, “Three Chord Country and American Rock & Roll,” produced two top 10 hits and the single “Podunk,” about his Miami childhood.
He released his sophomore effort, “C’mon,” in August, scoring the biggest hit of his performance career with the No. 2 song “I Still Miss You.” The ballad has taken on new meaning since his mom, Janice, died of cancer June 30.
Anderson also continues to see success as a songwriter, with Gretchen Wilson and Jason Michael Carroll recently cutting tracks he penned. Duo Big & Rich notched a No. 1 hit this year with “Lost in This Moment,” which he and John Rich co-wrote about nine years ago.
“When it becomes such a monster hit, you know, there’s that part of you that’s going ‘Wow, that sure would have been nice to have had in my repertoire, too.’ But as a writer, I’m still making the same amount of money,” he said.
As the Oklahoma native performed his rowdy party songs and heartfelt ballads last weekend at the zoo, he also shared some encouraging words with the crowd.
“I grew up in Miami dreaming of doing this, so dream big.”

Concert review: Montgomery Gentry, Gary Allan and Keith Anderson

Concert review: Country stars close Zoo Amphitheatre’s season with a party
A fun-loving duo, smoldering heartthrob and Oklahoma native on a homecoming tour closed the Zoo Amphitheatre’s concert season Friday night with a fittingly raucous country-rock party.
With the lineup of Montgomery Gentry, Gary Allan and Keith Anderson, Country Fest 2008 promised to fire up the crowd of about 8,500 fans with a steady fuel of drinking songs, brokenhearted ballads and rebel anthems.
But the fall temperatures cooled off some fans, indicating that the outdoor venue’s season closer came a little too late. While the evening started out comfortably mild, the shivering started when the sun went down. Several quaking fans barely waited for headliner Montgomery Gentry to finish their set before filing to the exits.
Stillwater singer/songwriter/guitarist Nick Gibson and the Can’t Hardly Playboys, who won a radio contest to open the show, warmed up the crowd, setting an appropriate outlaw tone with their original songs “No Other Way,” “Another Hole in the Wall” and Gibson’s solid electric guitar rendition of the National Anthem.
For Anderson, who was born and raised in Miami, OK, playing at the zoo was a dream come true, and his dad and sister were there to live it with him. The rising country star, playing the first of three Oklahoma shows in a week’s span, told the crowd he attended many concerts at the zoo while seeking his degree “at the greatest university in the world,” Oklahoma State.
When some University of Oklahoma football fans objected, Anderson quipped, “Hey, at least we won last week.”
He opened his short set by amping up the good-time atmosphere, drawling the rollicking “C’mon,” his new album’s title track, and “XXL,” a party song suited to the former Mr. Oklahoma runner-up’s hunky physique.
“I love coming back to Oklahoma. … Ain’t nothing like it,” he told to the crowd.
The up-and-comer had some devoted fans who danced and sang along throughout his short set. The rest of the crowd greeted him warmly, but many stayed in their lawn chairs.
Anderson, who started out in Nashville, Tenn. as a songwriter, got more people singing with a pair of songs he penned that became hits for others: “Lost in This Moment,” a chart-topper for Big & Rich, and “Beer Run,” a big duet by George Jones and fellow OSU alum Garth Brooks.
He romanced the audience with the poignant piano ballads “I Still Miss You” and “Every Time I Hear Your Name,” and charmed with the boisterous “Break My Heart” and “Somebody Needs a Hug.”
“We’ve even got ‘Somebody Needs a Hug’ panties,” he joked, laughing. “My grandma loves that; she’s got three pair.”
By the time he closed with “Picking Wildflowers,” his mischievous tribute to small-town loving, Anderson clearly had gained some fans.
Despite his ranking on the bill, Allan was the main attraction of the night for many people, particularly among the ladies. The crowd noise reached a piercing shriek when Allan, dressed in a black hoodie, T-shirt and jeans, emerged at the top of the stage.
With his tattoos and stubble accenting his bad boy with a heart of gold persona, the California native charmed with several big ballads, including “Watching Airplanes,” “Nothing on But the Radio” and “Still Learning How to Bend.”
He swaggered around the stage tossing out guitar picks through the defiant rockers “Like It’s a Bad Thing,” “Alright Guy” and “Man of Me.”
“I feel like we could go take over a building now if we wanted to. Solve some problems,” he said as the audience roared its adoration.
When the crowd demanded an encore, Allan started with a surprising classic rock twist: a sexy, extra bluesy take on Tom Petty’s “Breakdown,” in which he showed off his guitar chops in an electric duel with one of his band members.
He finished with the honky-tonkers “He Can’t Quit Her” and “Drinkin’ Dark Whiskey,” setting the stage for hard-partying headliners Montgomery Gentry.
Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry showed their flair for theatrics and Southern rock right away, taking the stage dramatically silhouetted behind curtains that suddenly dropped as they charged into their bombastic “Big Revival.”
Their set was classic Montgomery Gentry, mixing rebellious rockers (”Hell Yeah,” “What Do Ya Think About That,” “All Night Long”) with hefty down-home doses of spirituality (their No. 1 hit “Back When I Knew It All,” “Lucky Man”) and patriotism (”Something To Be Proud Of”).
Their high-energy set got the crowd cheering, dancing and clapping along, and Montgomery would settle for nothing less, frequently shouting “I can’t hear you,” in between cackling crazily and twirling his microphone stand. His showy antics prompted Gentry to joke, “You could at least act like you’re having fun.”
As usual, the pair shared singing duties with Gentry also playing rhythm guitar, and the chemistry between the longtime friends and musical partners was apparent not just in their playful teasing but also in their perfect harmony.
Their enthusiasm proved infectious: While groups of chilly fans headed for the exits, many were willing to bear a few more minutes of the cold to scream for an encore. The duo sent the audience away singing with the uplifting anthem “Our Town” and appropriately, the rowdy goodbye song “Gone.”

Keith Anderson cheering for the Cowboys
Up-and-coming country singer Keith Anderson experienced one of the greatest football Saturdays of his life last weekend.
A Miami, OK, native, Anderson played baseball at and graduated from Oklahoma State University. The Cowboys beat then-No. 3 ranked Missouri last Saturday, a feat that moved OSU up in the polls to No. 8.
As Anderson also noted, in-state rival the University of Oklahoma lost to big rival the University of Texas.
“That was one of the great college days of my life: OU gets upset and OSU upsets No. 3, and now we’re in the top 10 for the first time in a long time.”
This weekend is homecoming at OSU, but it’s also a homecoming of sorts for Anderson.
He will open for Montgomery Gentry and Gary Allan tonight at Oklahoma City’s Zoo Amphitheatre, and then he is open of the special guests at Brooks & Dunn’s Saturday concert at Buffalo Run Casino in his hometown of Miami.
On Oct 24, Anderson will be the headliner at a show at Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa. Here’s the breakdown of his upcoming Oklahoma shows:

Keith Anderson playing three Oklahoma shows
From Friday’s Weekend Look section of The Oklahoman.
Oklahoma native returns for shows
Rising country star Keith Anderson is returning to Oklahoma today for a show in his hometown and concerts at two of the state’s historic venues.
“I can’t wait,” Anderson said in a phone interview earlier this week from Florida. “To get back to Oklahoma is always one of the coolest things I can do. … I’ve got tons of family coming out to all three of those shows.”
Anderson, 40, will be special guest tonight at Country Fest 2008, featuring Montgomery Gentry and Gary Allan. It is the last show of the season at the Zoo Amphitheatre, 2101 NE 50.
On Saturday, Anderson will return to Miami, OK, where he was born and raised. Along with Darius Rucker and Chasing Dixie, he will open for star duo Brooks & Dunn, which includes Tulsa-raised Ronnie Dunn, at Buffalo Run Casino, 1000 Buffalo Run Blvd.
Anderson will be the headliner, with Chasing Dixie and George Ducas as openers, Oct. 24 at Cain’s Ballroom, 423 N Main in Tulsa. In his youth, he attended concerts at both the Zoo and Cain’s.
“It’s a real thrill just growing up in that area and going to shows at both those venues my whole life … just dreaming of doing something musical like I’m doing and making a career of it,” he said. “And now getting to go out and play those places is just phenomenal.”
Along with spending time with family and friends, Anderson said he gets a special kick out of performing in his hometown, which he featured in his video for the song “Podunk.”
“It’s real cool ’cause … for the longest time I’d be gone in Nashville trying to make it as an artist or a songwriter, and there was 10 years where there was nothing that happened. There wasn’t anything to come back and talk about and tell everybody about. And now that it’s happened, it’s certainly a lot of fun to come back and play for everybody,” he said.
“It’s kind of like a dream for all of us; it’s just kind of like, ‘Wow, this really happened.’”
