Showcasing the highs and lows of life on tour, The Road will air Sundays (9:00–10:00 p.m. ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, with streaming available live and on-demand via Paramount+. Each week, twelve up-and-coming performers will compete for the chance to open for Keith Urban at venues across the country. Urban is joined by executive producers Blake Shelton and Taylor Sheridan, “Tour Manager” Gretchen Wilson, as well as members of the live audience, who help decide who advances.
“Buckle up, everyone! I'm beyond excited (and relieved) to FINALLY share my big secret,” shares Billie Jo Jones. “You’ll be seeing me on the upcoming TV show, 'The Road,' premiering on CBS & Paramount+ this fall. Prepare yourselves for an amazing ride – I promise it's worth the wait!”
Along with Billie Jo Jones, this season’s featured artists include Adam Sanders, Blaine Bailey, Briana Adams, Britnee Kellogg, Cassidy Daniels, Channing Wilson, Cody Hibbard, Forrest McCurren, Jenny Tolman, Jon Wood, and Olivia Harms. Produced by MTV Entertainment Studios alongside Bosque Ranch Productions (Sheridan), Lucky Horseshoe Productions (Shelton and Metzger), 101 Studios (David Glasser), and Keith Urban, The Road gives viewers an unfiltered look into the of life on the road, along with the passion and determination it takes to make it in country music.
Jones is also shaking things up with her latest single, “Why You Gotta Be So Cowboy,” out tomorrow. Featuring razor-sharp lyrics like “Talk is cheap when your words are free, and cheap ain’t got nothing to do with me,” songwriters Len Snow and Aaron Weatherholt pulled no punches when crafting this powerful anthem. Premiered by Taste of Country, the track shows Billie Jo is turning up the heat and hitting the dance floor, just in time for summer.

About
Born in Dallas, Texas, this proud native was destined for stardom from a very early age. Billie Jo shares, “I was putting on private concerts for my grandparents in their living room when I was just 4 or 5 years old. They would sit, watch me for hours, and clap for me after every song. I performed everything from Shania Twain and the Dixie Chicks to Patsy Cline, Ray Price, and Loretta Lynn. I’ve always loved old country.”
Her single, "Right Now Kinda Girl," topped the Texas Regional Radio Chart and was followed up with her debut full-length album, Some Girls Don’t Cry, featuring the title track of the same name. Keeping up with the momentum, Jones' “Whose Tequila Are You Drinkin'” reached the #1 spot on the CDX True Indie chart, earned her the title of Top Female Indie Artist on Music Row’s Breakout Radio Chart, and received a #1 plaque for her single “Who’s Tequila Are You Drinking,” which topped Amazon Music’s Top Country Songs.
Never one to slow down, Billie Jo Jones continues to make strides in country radio, and is excited to be back in the studio with famed producer Kent Wells (Dolly Parton), recording new music for her upcoming album out later this year.

Knowledge is power, and executive/entrepreneur Jeremy Westby is the power behind 2911 Enterprises. Westby is the rare individual whose twenty-five years of experience in the music industry champions each of those arenas—on a multi genre level in all realms. After all, how many people can say they’ve worked side by side with Megadeth, Meat Loaf, Michael W. Smith and Dolly Parton? Westby can.
