2012 in country music

Events
  • February 29 – Branson, Missouri, a city famous for its country music-oriented tourist attractions, sustained damage from the Leap Day tornadoes. Three of Branson's 50-plus theaters are extensively damaged.[1]
  • May 11 – ABC picks up Malibu Country, starring Reba McEntire, to series.[2] The new series debuts in November but is later cancelled in May 2013 after 18 episodes.[3]
  • May 21 – Scott Borchetta announces the signing of Tim McGraw to Big Machine Records.[4]
  • June 4 – Sony Music Nashville closes its BNA Records division after 21 years of operation; all its artists and staff are transferred to Columbia Nashville.[5]
  • June 18 – Gail Gellman, manager for Sugarland, confirms that member Jennifer Nettles is expecting a baby in November with husband Justin Miller.[6]
  • August – Randy Travis is involved in a number of legal incidents, including a drunk driving incident where he was found sitting nude outside his wrecked vehicle and – as police officers were trying to take him into custody – making verbal threats to injure and kill the officers,[7][8] and a domestic disturbance approximately two weeks later.[9]
  • August 14 – George Jones announces plans for a 60-date farewell tour, titled The Grand Tour, for 2013.[10]
  • August 18 – Wynonna Judd's husband Scott "Cactus" Moser, who plays drums in both her road band and Highway 101, is involved in a motorcycle crash in South Dakota which results in the amputation of a leg.[11]
  • September 25 – Country legend Loretta Lynn celebrates her 50th Anniversary as a member of the Grand Ole Opry.
  • September 26 – George Strait announces plans for a farewell tour, titled The Cowboy Rides Away, for 2013 and 2014.[12] Strait revealed he will continue recording and will perform on special occasions.[12]
  • October 11 – Billboard changes its Hot Country Songs from an airplay-only chart to one that reflects both airplay and music downloads, similarly to the Hot 100. The airplay-only methodology is transferred to a new chart called Country Airplay.[13] As a result of the new methodology, Taylor Swift's "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" – which had previously peaked at No. 13 – rebounds back up the chart and becomes the first No. 1 single under the new methodology. In the process, the song becomes the first to top both the country and Billboard Hot 100 charts since "Amazed" by Lonestar in March 2000 and – with nine weeks at No. 1 – is the longest running chart-topper on the country chart since "Almost Persuaded" by David Houston in 1966. The song also is the longest-running No. 1 country song ever by a female artist, topping Connie Smith's "Once a Day" (which logged eight weeks at No. 1 in 1964–1965).
  • November 1 – Luken Communications and Jim Owens Entertainment relaunch The Nashville Network (TNN) as a digital broadcast television network.[14]

gollark: Huh, I thought you were going to complain about me "explaining closure terribly" or something.
gollark: It's called closure. Stuff defined in something gets access to locals from that thing.
gollark: Just do```luafunction fs.open(file, mode) local f = {} -- Store fs files in here local handle = io.open(file, mode) function f.readAll() return handle:read("*a") end function f.close() handle:close() end function f.write(data) handle:write(data) end return fend```unless there's some other thing you need it for.
gollark: Wait, why do you need a global `openFiles` thing for that?
gollark: Cool, should be useful.
