Summer is officially here and BHTV has some hot programming for you. We have all new BlueHighways Jam throughout the month of July including music from the Grand Palace in Branson with pianist Dino; but our main presentation, starting on July 14 for 4 weeks straight, will be the airing of the best moments from our Live From The Smokies special from May. Each episode will feature classic country music and rock-n-roll hits from the 50s and 60s and special features on Smoky Mountain artisans. We think the RFD-TV audience will very much enjoy the shows, and you'll be able to order a best of CD and DVD set of the broadcast on the BHTV Country Store or by calling 877-357-2474.
