Thomas Rhett Partners With Budweiser

Thomas Rhett and Budweiser have announced a new sponsorship deal. The two will join forces on the road this summer to roll out one-of-a-kind experiences for fans with a digital content series and surprise performances throughout the country.

“We’re always looking for a way to do something cool and new with our fans,” said Rhett. “I already know we’re going to have a good time this summer out on the road, but teaming up with Budweiser is going to make the experience that much better. It’s going to be something all our fans can get into on the road, but also at home when they can’t make it out to a show.”

Alabama will perform with the Nashville Symphony for the first time on May 12-14 at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center in downtown Nashville. Band members Randy Owen, Teddy Gentry and Jeff Cook will join conductor Vinay Parameswaran and the Nashville Symphony on hits like “Mountain Music,” “Feels So Right,” “Dixieland Delight,” “The Closer You Get,” “Feels So Right,” “Love in the First Degree,” “Take Me Down” and “Tennessee River.”

 

Maddie & Tae Create A Capsule Collection For Bloomingdale’s

Maddie & Tae and Bloomingdale’s have partnered for a new collection in the retailer’s AQUA line. Bloomingdale’s Vice Chairman Frank Doroff read about Maddie Marlow and Tye Dye in Women’s Wear Daily, and was introduced to them through Marvin Traub Associates. Doroff and his team brainstormed with the duo, which led to the artists curating a collection of ensemble pieces, which will be available online and in all Bloomingdale’s stores this fall.

“Maddie & Tae represent the fresh, fun and modern young women who wear AQUA,” says Doroff. “As creative artists, their influence and input feels like a strong fit for this line. Bloomingdale’s welcomes the opportunity to work with young talent in all phases of their business. We’re thrilled to have Maddie & Tae working with our AQUA brand.”
