"The excitement of the last couple of months has been off the chain, " remarked Shenandoah's Marty Raybon. "We signed with 8 Track Entertainment and received word that we're part of the CMA's lineup at Nissan Stadium for the big shindig on Thursday, June 9. There's new music in the works and the 'Country Comeback Tour' with Billy Dean and Wade Hayes that we'll debut at CMA Fest this year. We have a lot to be thankful for and are grateful for the Lord's favor."
