If Carrie can do an Aerosmith cover without batting an eyelid, I don't see why they can't - it would be right up Emily's street!  Or maybe the guest is Ryan Bingham (who now has a house in LA). They presented him with the artist of the year award at the AMAs, and he may want to retuirn the favour. They could do "Country Roads" (which could almost be thought of as a fiercer version of "The Long Way Around", beginning with the lines "Did you think you knew exactly where I stood, or did I just let you down?"Generally I wish the LA artists who want to appear with them would go to Texas, rather than the other way round, but I can see that that might almost be "too Outlaw" for some of the Nashville commercial crowd - LA could be more "neutral ground". |

A guy named Isaac Russell wrote this on his Twitter a few days ago: twitter.com/#!/IsaacRussell/status/79412439556427776 So I'm going to guess it's him. |

I'll have to look up Mr. Russell, never heard of him.

He's a Sony/Columbia artist (which makes sense for a tie-up) As far as I can tell, he's opened at Adele concerts, and has an a small, EP type of collection of songs released. One of them ("Elizabeth") deals with his mother's death from cancer when he was a child. His style seems to be contemporary acoustic Folk. I think it would repay close listening, as it's more introspective singer/songwriter, than "jump out and grab you" music. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003YNXSN6?ie=UTF8&tag=sonbmgmusent-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B003YNXSN6According to his biography, he was raised in Bakersfield (one of the classic California refuges for the Dust Bowl Texes, Okies and Arkies), and is influenced by Merle Haggard and Buck Owens (two musical heroes of the CYH, especially Martie). The Owens influence is not obvious to me from those short clips - though Owens did influence the Beatles, whom Isaac also admires. I'd say there is more of a touch of the Hag in some of those songs. He's also been compared to James Taylor - but Isaac says his ambition is to make a record like no one else's (which sounds a good premise to aim for) |

Funny, when I got the email, I just assumed it would be Nat, due to the "secrecy".
Why would they not announce who it would be if it were someone else? Usually they want the other artists' fans to watch, exposure. Makes no sense - unless it's not a done deal yet. hhhmmm

You know what? I love Natalie and all, but I really hope that they don't get her on the chat. There are people out there that would probably tear her apart. There's not much that people can ask with out returning to the question that's been asked a hundred times: "Where is she, and why hasn't she come back?"

Quote by EmilyFanatic: I don't think those people could possibly do anything more to her than what they did following The Incident. Normally I wouldn't speculate on such things, but I think Nat is a bit more resilient than her detractors give her credit for. To use a Bushism, they may be "misunderestimating" her.  ;D  |

That was the first chat I had seen in quite a while, and I really enjoyed the lightheartedness of it. It seems as though they're much more comfortable, and joking more and more. Glad they answered my question about Isaac touring with them. I enjoyed his music, and will be checking out youtube to see if I can find more.

I think he was my favorite guest so far. Also looking forward to the Dixie Chicks Storytellers thing coming out this fall.

There's not much that people can ask with out returning to the question that's been asked a hundred times: "Where is she, and why hasn't she come back?" That's the exact question she needs to answer for herself rather than always having Martie and Emily do it for her. When or if is she ever coming back? Will there be a new album? She's been ignoring the fans for way to long it's time for her to step up and talk to us and clear up rumors!!!! |

Iv still not seen any chats,must do better.
On the Natalie thing,if its happens,it happens,i am not that worked up about her going AWOL.
It can be frustrating about having no news whats so ever,but its not the end of the world,Natalie has her reasons and afer what happend to her,ic ant blame her for the not being about.
It would be great if she could clear things up for the fans,but we just have to except,she will when she is ready,or maybe not.

They said Natalie will be on a chat at some point. Yeah they did I heard it and if Martie and Emily invite her. And she turns it down. That will just show Natalie really doesn't care about the fans or the Chicks after all. Seriously!!! |

Some posters think Natalie owes her fans a statement of if and when she plans to come back; others think she owes her fans nothing. Whatever! Actually, I think she has said she will tour again - she just hasn't said when - and I doubt if she knows the answer to that herself, at this point If she does decide to make a future statement, though, I hope she makes it off her own bat (on the DC website, on Twitter, through a press release, for example.) I'd really rather she doesn't come onto a Hounds chat. Natalie couldn't simply be seen as just another random guest - if she did appear, her very presence would turn it into a Dixie Chick chat - and that would inevitably take the focus off the Hounds music and future plans. Whether you love Natalie, used to love Natalie, are frustrated with Natalie, or have nothing but sympathy for Natalie is all rather beside the point in this context. The bottom line is that Natalie is not part of the Court Yard Hounds - and what the Hounds are doing shouldn't be dominated by what Natalie is, isn't, or might be doing. |
