Beautiful Mess: Rebooted

Beautiful Mess returns as "Beautiful Mess: Rebooted!" The show will feature country, folk, and bluegrass music from the 1960s to today and will share music from a variety of artists from Merle Haggard and Loretta Lynn to Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood. Beautiful Mess has always had its roots in '90s country and then goes from there, based mostly on listener requests. The show begins each week with "Beautiful Mess" by Diamond Rio.
