Raised Up Country is a film series featuring the descendants of Country Music legends sharing insights and previously undisclosed stories of their unique lives being raised in the music industry and performing some of their foremothers' and forefathers' biggest hits.
The resurgence of Classic Country and Americana Music has broadened the listening and appreciation age group that now mirrors a time before television when families of all ages and cultural backgrounds would gather around the radio on Saturday night and listen to their favorite country artists and songs.
They continue to be a following loyal to this genre of music spanning generations across the globe.
Raised Up Country keeps the music, spirit, and legacy of these legends alive.
Descendants of Country Music Legends are bringing a glimpse of their unique lives to a new generation of fans with tall tales and musical tributes.
