Hey y'all, it's Tee Gentry. You've probably heard us talk about the KICKS 99 Superstar Mini Concerts we are doing each week and hopefully you caught the first one, which was Lady Antebellum.

In rough times, country music artists always come through to help their fans. This series we're doing is a great example of that. They share their stories of how they're coping with being quarantined and they play music from their home  for the people who have made it possible for them to do what they love....that would be you!

This is why I love country music.

I hope you get a chance to listen. Thanks to our friends at Hawk Law Group, we have new concerts on KICKS 99 every Tuesday and Friday at 4PM and a replay of that show at 8PM. Of course, you can also listen on your smart speaker, the KICKS mobile app and streaming on your Mac or PC.

Dustin Lynch is up next....this Friday at 4 (read about it here!). Come pull up a seat and listen and get lost in the love of country music for a while.

Tee has worked with KICKS 99 for over 24 years as Operations Manager and Program Director and is on-air each afternoon 3p-7p. When he’s not working, you’ll find him traveling the back roads, taking pictures, and searching for the next dive diner. Favorite place to visit? That’s easy. Folly Beach, SC. He’s usually there at least a few times a year. He lives in North Augusta and on Saturdays in the fall, you’ll find him cooking out and watching his Clemson Tigers. Tee likes to write about travel, Augusta local dive bars and diners and destinations in the Carolinas, as well as new business.
