The Oak Ridge Boys among Star-Studded Lineup at CMA Music Festival at LP Field

Nashville, TN (May 7, 2012) -- Grammy Award winning group, The Oak Ridge Boys, will deliver the National Anthem as part of the Nightly Concerts at LP Field during the CMA Music Festival on Friday, June 8, 2012 at 7:45 p.m.  Prominently known as "Singers of the Anthem," the country legends were proclaimed the official National Anthem Singers by the National Association of Music Educators National Anthem Project from 2005-2010.

“It is an honor to be invited by the CMA Music Festival to sing the National Anthem at LP Field.  The Boys are very active in the Festival this year, and have been part of every Festival and Fan Fair since the very first one,” says lead singer Duane Allen.

Oak Ridge Boys member Joe Bonsall adds, “The CMA Music Festival has not only become Nashville's biggest yearly event, but country music is now bigger and stronger than it has ever been. We feel like we have placed some stones on the mountain, but the artists of today have reached higher than ever before to take country music to amazing heights of artistry and performance. We are all thrilled to stand with them at CMA Music Fest once again.”

Dick Clark quotes Joe Bonsall about the Oaks in Billboard Article!

The music universe is reeling due to the passing this week of Dick Clark at 82. Between his numerous television and radio credits, Clark enjoyed one of the longest entertainment careers of all time. While many obituaries today will (and should) focus on his ties to the world of rock and roll, there were many ties to country music that Clark enjoyed.

"My heart goes out to Dick Clark's family," country superstar Brad Paisley (pictured with Clark in 2004) wrote on Twitter. "What a life. Thank you for all you did, and your friendship. Now go get the music rockin' in heaven."

Starting his radio career after graduating high school in 1947, one of the first jobs Clark had was at WOLF while attending Syracuse. Though he would later become internationally known as the host of "American Bandstand," his first job in television was hosting "Cactus Dick and the Santa Fe Riders," a country music show broadcast on WKTV in Utica.
