that’s right y’all. we’re guna party like it’s 1996. just with better hairstyles and maybe a glass of wine 🤣
tickets are on sale NOW for the “30 years of blue” tour. get ‘em while you can!!
we definitely had way too much fun rehearsing for the big @911nashville finale… place your bets now 🥊
in the red corner…
dixie bennings
small (without boots) but mighty. raised on chaos, cheap beer, and pure survival instinct. trailer trash scrappy with nothing to lose and absolutely no concept of backing down. she fights dirty, fast, and emotionally devastating. if she’s crying there’s a 50/50 chance it’s either heartbreak or bloodlust.
and in the blue corner…
blythe
the corporate queen making her fighting debut. pressed suit. perfect blowout. terrifying eye contact.she came armed with strategy, restraint, and years of quietly judging everyone in the room. but tomorrow the business babe snaps.and somehow… she can throw a punch.
one fights like she grew up in a parking lot. the other fights like she finally hit her limit.
catch the action on @abc /@hulu tomorrow night.
still working my way through voice rest trying to get myself back to health as quickly as possible but couldn’t let the “sitting on top of the world” anniversary pass by.
i know this is one of your favorites that i haven’t played in a while. here’s a little peak into rehearsals as we reworked and reimagined this gem. hoping to add it to the setlist when i can get back out on the road 🤍
i totally would have salt-n-pepa’d the sh!t outta dixie’s diss track 🔥
i may have been WAY off with how this was going to sound, but i dig it 😂 . this is what happens when you get lyrics to film the scene 3 months ahead of the track being recorded (but also add a little on set delirium 😂)
if you haven’t watched this week’s @911nashville yet, go, go GO! it’s streaming on @hulu now.
for those of you asking about dixie’s family, you’ll get some clues on tonight’s episode with meemaw. the fire behind dixie… 🔥
i’m obsessed with neva howell on and off screen. my scene with her was one of my favorite scenes of the series to shoot and i can’t wait for more scenes with her in season 2 🤞
dixie is also back in the studio, cookin’ up a little trouble… as always. watch your back b xoxo
see you tonight!
we always take a walk down the “coyote ugly” memory lane at my shows.
this song, these lyrics, @dianewarren ’s magic, is the reason i was drawn to the project and agreed to take on the soundtrack. and the fact that you love these songs just as much now as you did almost 30 years ago are a testament to that 🤍

we got to step away for 3 days amidst work and some very tense, heart wrenching things happening at home with family. it’s been a different anniversary, one filled with tears and worry, but in between, there were moments of laughter and deep gratitude for this love of ours. day by day, we walk hand in hand through the rollercoaster of life… and god, i’m so grateful that it’s with each other. we’ve been through so much in our 15 years as husband and wife. we know how to ride the waves 🌊, hold each other in times of need, mend what needs mending. i’m so proud of what we have created together. 15 years is just the beginning. 🤍 #hallelujah #happyanniversary❤️ #cabo
thank you @lasventanasalparaiso and paola, the romance director for making our anniversary so special
15 years of loving you. 15 years of making memories. your love is such a gift. and, with all that’s taken place this year, i have new vows…
in perimenopause and in health
with teeth and without… 😂
here’s to you catching up and me returning the favor 🦷
happy 15th anniversary @eddiecibrian
behind the blue tour ~ live on substack
last night felt like stepping into a memory and a brand new moment at the same time.
we captured a little of the in between for you… the quiet before, the chaos backstage, those last few breaths before walking out and hearing you. it’s such a strange, beautiful shift from behind the curtain to standing in front of all that love.
seeing so many of your faces in the crowd meant more than i can really put into words. some of you i’ve grown up with in a way… some of you are just finding me now… and somehow it all meets in the same room.
to my famile who came out, thank you for holding that space with me. i felt you. i always do.
this tour is about honoring where it all began, but nights like this remind me it’s just as much about where we are right now, together.
i’m bringing you along for as much of it as i can.
it’s taken me a long time to add ‘probably wouldn’t be this way’ back in my setlist (and to make it through without crying 🤣)… but i did it!!
head over to my substack to watch the full video, or see it in person at one of my shows 🤍
