“We’re pretty fired up for what the fifth year anniversary of Boots and Hearts has in store,” said Shannon McNevan, Executive Director, Republic Live. “We had great feedback from fans on what they’d like to see available at our new home at Burl’s Creek Event Grounds and have made a few changes based on their requests. We’ve replaced our premium camping area with tent camping PLUS, as we had many requests for larger and closer spaces but without the need to be a premium ticket holder.

In Conversation with Old Dominion
Well another week has passed and Boots and Hearts is still likely still a strong memory. Well how about catching up with Old Dominion before they hit the stage at the massively successful Coors Light Banquet Kickoff Party. The boys did a hell of job on stage and we were happy they gave us some time to chat.
Updated: Chatting with Dallas Smith
We had a chance to sit down with our buddy Dallas Smith backstage at Boots & Hearts this past weekend. We talked festivals, Cheap Seats & so much more. Click play and watch what we had to chat about. Enjoy.

UPDATE…So you wanna hear that track that Dallas mentioned in our interview. Here it is folks. Pretty sweet tune.
Boots and Hearts 2016 Wish List
Well,
The gates have barely closed on the 2015 Boots and Hearts Music Festival and my thoughts are already turning to the big 5 Year Anniversary in 2016. With so many of Country’s biggest names already having graced the B&H Stages it’s a tough one. But here is my Top 20 list of acts for next year!
Boots & Hearts Day 4 Recap
Well, It was the last day of the bid weekend. Most say they save the best for last. It’s pretty tough to top Eric Church and Dallas Smith as headliners. But when you get Thomas Rhett & Florida Georgia Line ya at least have a shot. And lets just say these guys came to party. I am a HUGE Thomas Rhett fan and have been for years (5 or 6 now at least) I can still remember seeing him take the stage in Chicago at Joe’s on Weed St. Performing after Brad Paisley’s big Wrigley Field gig as the after party to maybe 300 people and then witnessing the show yesterday.
Day #3 Recap of Boots and Hearts
Well day #3 is in the books for Boots and Hearts.
Another AMAZING Day of music, interviews and meeting new friends. I have to say the people who come to Boots and Hearts are pretty special people. With over 40,000 people in attendance I have to hand it to Republic Live this experience in the new digs has been unbelievable. From the fantastic lay of the land to the killer line up they have put together its just been an experience that any country music lover should take in.
Eric & Dallas set to play Boots & Hearts TONIGHT!
Well for those of you that have been reading the site for the last year or so, you all know that I am a HUGE Eric Church fan. To celebrate Eric playin’ north of the border for the largest country music festival in Canada Boots & Hearts I thought I would put a few of my favourite tracks from the artists hitting the stage today!
Blackjack Billy – Mason Jar Session
So we introduced our Mason Jar Session last month with Autumn Hill performing an amazing rendition of their smash hit Blame. This time around the boys of Blackjack Billy recorded there current single Why God Made Summertime. This was recorded on Thursday just before they hit the stage at Canada’s largest country music festival – Boots & Hearts. Huge thanks to the boys for doing this! Oh and we may just have one more to share with you to! Stay tuned…
Getting to know Leanne Pearson
As I write this day 2 of Boots and Hearts is well underway and 8 tensions are likely starting to grow between 8 emerging artists set to take to the Front Porch Stage Saturday afternoon all vying to be chosen for the coveted opening spot for Thomas Rhett on Sunday afternoon. One of the top 8 is Winnipeg Manitoba’s Leanne Pearson. In less then two years, Leanne has had one single hit Top 50, “Get Outta My Heart”, and one single hit Top 90, “The Only Thing”. Leanne shows that there are no limits to an Independent Canadian Country Girl. We had the chance to chat with her a few months back about her career to date and what it meant to be chosen for the top 8 at Boots and Hearts.
