USA Today called him "one of the country's most electric performers."

The daughter of long-time Opry star George Morgan, Morgan grew up backstage at the Grand Ole Opry and has become one of the three top-selling woman singers in country music.

Her third and most recent album, "Watch Me," included the hit title song. Her first two LPs, "You Can Leave the Light On" and "Something in Red," both are nearing platinum status in terms of sales.

Kershaw is characterized as a "raging extrovert" whose Cajun extraction and love of comedy came through in his debut album, "Don't Go Near the Water."
