CMT goes bluegrass on Tuesday

CMT Bluegrass BlogCMT is marking the month of May (bluegrass month!) with some special programming tomorrow morning (5/13).

From 6:00-8:00 and 9:00-11:00 a.m. (ET/PT) CMT will feature blocks of all bluegrass videos on their popular cable TV network. The music videos will be mixed with live clips from the various bluegrass performances recorded for their Unplugged At Studio 330 series.

If CMT is offered in your cable or satellite package, you can get ready for work with bluegrass videos on Tuesday morning. They will also be launching bluegrass editions this week for their online video series Wide Open Country and Stacked on CMT.com.

This special programming is also being offered to help promote their new bluegrass section at the CMT.com Country Music Blog.

Hey… wait a minute! They’re moving in on our turf!

Just be sure to stop here and read The Bluegrass Blog each day before heading over there to see what they are up to at CMT.com.
