HARDY Cancels, Postpones Shows After Tour Bus Crash

HARDY, who was injured in a tour bus accident last week, announced that he will cancel or postpone two upcoming tour stops.

In a video message he shared on social media, HARDY said that Ernest will step in to fill the opening slot for the show on October 8 in Arlington, Texas, which is part of Morgan Wallen's "Dangerous Tour."

HARDY's October 13 show in Ohio has been postponed to July 1, 2023.

The tour bus that HARDY was travelling in on their way home from Bristol overturned before dawn on Interstate 40 West, outside Nashville, on October 2.

All the four passengers in the bus, including HARDY, sustained "significant injuries," he wrote on social media at that time.

The singer-songwriter added that after being released from the hospital, doctors have advised rest to recover for the next few weeks.

HARDY is scheduled to start his headlining "Wall to Wall Tour" in December in Athens, Georgia.

Darius Rucker, Chapel Hart Shares 'Ol' Church Hymn'

Darius Rucker recently released redemptive ballad "Ol' Church Hymn," featuring rising Mississippi vocal trio Chapel Hart.

The song was written by Rucker together with Ben Hayslip, Josh Miller and Greylan James.

The gospel-inspired love song features Rucker's rich baritone vocals, praised by Billboard as "one of the most distinctive voices of country's modern era."

The new single follows recent releases "My Masterpiece" and "Same Beer Different Problem" as previews of a forthcoming solo project.

The song comes on the heels of another collaboration from Rucker and Chapel Hart, who joined forces for a performance of Bonnie Raitt's "Something to Talk About" during the "America's Got Talent" season finale last month on NBC.

Rucker will perform new music live at the inaugural Riverfront Revival festival in his hometown of Charleston, South Carolina, on October 8 and 9.
