These boys killed it! The Driver by Charles Kelley, Dierks Bentley and Eric Paslay Posted by Bobby Bones Show on Wednesday, February 10, 2016

Brad Paisley brought his "Crushin' It" tour to Mohegan Sun Arena Sunday night.  The tour currently features Cam and Eric Paslay.   Cam played several songs off her new record, Untamed  including her number 1 single, "Burning House" and new single, "Mayday".   Eric Paslay gave us some insight into his new album which will be released later this year.  The highlight of his set for me was the energetic "High Class" single as well as when he welcomed Cam back out the stage for a duet off his new album titled, "Taking My Heartbeat Higher".  Brad Paisley was one of the artists that originally sparked my interest in country music circa 2004 with love songs like "Little Moments" as well as traditional country songs like "Mud on the Tires" and the beautifully melancholic duet with Alison Krauss, "Whiskey Lullaby".  His set list on Saturday night did not disappoint as he covered both old clas...

Eric Paslay played a sold out show at Lupos Providence on Thursday night.  This was my sixth time seeing Paslay perform and he somehow gets better each time.  The first time I saw him perform was at the Hard Rock Cafe in Boston for his CD release party in February '14.  That show was mainly Eric singing his the hits he's written for others from a centered mic with his guitar.  I was lucky enough to see him open for Dierks and The Band Perry as well. A year later, Paslay seems to have grown in confidence with his performance and much more willing to step away from behind his guitar and work the audience.  Paslay's distinctive smooth voice is as close to perfect as you find at a live venue.  Paslay's most moving power ballad, "She Don't Love You (She's Just Lonely) is truly remarkable live.  The set list covered most of Paslay's self titled debut record as well as songs written for other artists including "Rewind" (Rascal Flatts), "Bar...
