Nicole’s Nashville News- May 4

Luke Bryan is most definitely not the father of Maren Morris‘ baby. The rumor started last month when the tabloid, The Sun,  mistakenly reported that Maren welcomed her first child with Luke instead of her husband, Ryan Hurd. Luke’s mom called him to inform him about the article and ask if she had a grandson she didn’t know about.

Jason Aldean was recently asked if there is a song he regrets passing on. His answer was Luke Bryan‘s Drunk on You. Jason was finishing up an album at the time and didn’t need the song so he passed.  Jason said he believes a song always ends up where it’s supposed to be. For instance, Big Green Tractor was a big hit for Jason in 2009 but that song was almost recorded by Jake Owen. Jake decided the song wouldn’t be very believable coming from a guy who grew up on the beaches of Florida.

Brad Paisley is set to hit the road this summer. He will kick off his Tour 2021 on June 5. It will include headlining Nashville’s 4th of July Celebration.
