AceShowbiz - Country singers Shania Twain and Jake Owen have signed on to host a new singing competition show. "Real Country" will center on the specific genres of country music and feature solo artists handpicked by Twain and Owen to compete in showcases in a bid to make it to a grand finale.
"It's been an incredible year for me, releasing my new album and coming back to country music," a statement from Twain reads. "I feel it's time for me to add my own support in finding our greatest undiscovered talent. It's beyond thrilling to be leading the charge with 'Real Country' and I'm on a mission to find artists who will keep country music diverse and dynamic. The kind of diversity that inspired all of us."
"Country music truly seems to be the healing factor in a lot of people's lives," Owen adds. "I will always be grateful for music, whether I'm performing or listening, and I want to encourage up-and-coming artists to tell their stories, find their audiences and make their mark in country music with the same guidance that artists have given to me throughout my journey."
The eight-part series will air in the autumn on the USA Network.
