This summer they’re playing to fans coast-to-coast on their Cowboy Town Tour…but you don’t get to that stage and you don’t get to be the most-awarded act in ACM and CMA history without crankin’ out the hits and putting on an incredible show — and Brooks & Dunn have proven time and again that they know how to do all of the above.
