SUPERSTARS HEADLINE NU COUNTRY TV
Georgian born superstar Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffett headline the second episode of the second series of Nu Country TV with CMA award winning marathon chart topping hit It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere.
The duo performed the song live on the star-studded awards show in spring last year.
Jackson included the song on his platinum selling latest Greatest Hits disc that is also earning big royalties for recent Aussie tourist Kieran Kane.
Kane wrote and recorded the evocative love song I'll Go On Loving You before Jackson topped charts with it.
