The Boot Gives Fans Exclusive Sneak Peak of Upcoming Episode
Featuring Lee Roy Parnell

This week, country music star John Berry debuts his all-new international television show, Songs & Stories with John Berry.  The weekly 30-minute program premieres on Thursday, August 3 at 8:00 PM/ET on The Heartland Network and features special guest Billy Ray Cyrus.  Additional first season guests include Craig Morgan, Clay Walker, Suzy Bogguss, Mo Pitney, Neal McCoy, Billy Dean, and more.

Today, The Boot gave fans an exclusive sneak peak of an upcoming episode featuring Lee Roy Parnell.  Watch the video HERE.

Berry’s new show focuses on the singer and the song— the music that changed his guests’ lives and inspired them to be the artists they have become.  

“It’s hard to believe that the dream of a Songs and Stories TV series is now a reality and that the airing of it is upon us,” says Berry.  “It was a magical time filming each episode and an honor to get to know these artist friends on a different level as they sang songs and shared their stories. I am excited to share it with viewers.”

Songs & Stories was filmed onsite at Nashville‘s historic Douglas Corner, the same venue where Berry originally showcased to receive his first major record deal.  The show is sponsored by Freedom Trailers and Quieti Apparel and is produced by Jeff Moseley / CJM Productions.

Catch Songs & Stories with John Berry on Heartland on Thursday nights at 8:00 PM/ET.  Rebroadcasts of each episode air weekly on Fridays at 5:00 PM/ET, Saturdays at 9:00 PM/ET and Sundays at 7:00 PM/ET.

In addition to Heartland, the show can also be seen on Keep It Country TV (Europe), The Family Channel, The Country Network, the Angel Two Network, AMG TV, and the VTN Network.  For more information, visit songsandstories.com.

About John Berry    Grammy Award-winning country star John Berry has placed 20 singles on the country hit parade charts, six of which went Top 5 as well as a #1 on the Billboard and Radio & Records country charts. He has earned numerous Gold and Platinum records. Berry’s co-written “A Mind Of Her Own” and “Kiss Me In The Car” introduced him to radio audiences in 1993. Then, “Your Love Amazes Me,” “What’s In It For Me” and “You And Only You” thrust him to stardom in 1994. “Standing On The Edge Of Goodbye,” “I Think About It All The Time,” and “If I Had Any Pride Left At All” were all major hits the following year. “Your Love Amazes Me” earned Berry a 1995 Grammy nomination. Berry took “Change My Mind” into the country music Top 5 in 1996. “She’s Taken A Shine” became an even bigger hit in 1997. That same year, he was nominated for CMA Vocal Event of the Year for “Long Haired Country Boy” with Charlie Daniels and Hal Ketchum. Both fans and the media took note when “There He Goes” was released as a 1999 duet with Patsy Cline.  Berry’s two most recent albums, What I Love The Most and his holiday album, Christmas, are both available now at johnberry.com as well as iTunes and other digital retailers.
