Ben's Country Music Show Week of the 21st October 2024 - Reboot 2, Dwight Yoakam’s Return & Hall of Fame Honours
Opening with Brooks & Dunn and Lainey Wilson’s reworking of Play Something Country, this week’s show previews Reboot 2, featuring collaborations with Morgan Wallen, Megan Moroney, and Jelly Roll. Also highlighted is Dwight Yoakam’s forthcoming album Brighter Days, his first original release since 2015, including a collaboration with Post Malone. The programme recognises the 2024 Country Music Hall of Fame inductees—Toby Keith, John Anderson, and James Burton—while revisiting past honourees. “This Week in Country Music History” recalls Toby Keith’s American Ride reaching number one in 2009, while UK Country Music Charts show Jelly Roll’s Beautifully Broken topping albums and Kelsea Ballerini & Noah Kahan’s Cowboys Cry Too leading country radio. The episode closes on a personal note, as Ben pays tribute to three musician friends lost over the past year, featuring Working Boots By Hand as a reflective farewell.
