The Country Music Cruise 2014 Was an Enormous Success

Jo Dee Messina performs on CMC '14We had a blast on The Country Music Cruise 2014 sharing great music with old and new friends, enjoying the world-class service, food and amenities on Holland America’s luxurious m/s Eurodam, and getting to know our favorite Artists in intimate settings.

Our Guests enjoyed special performances from Vince Gill and Kenny Rogers; Patty Loveless in one of her rare live performances; some sizzling performances by Restless Heart and Jo Dee Messina; the great Gospel sounds of The Gatlin Brothers; and too many amazing performances to count by combinations of the Guitars and Country Stars Artists Jamie O'Neal, Ty Herndon and Andy Griggs.

But probably the most special moments occurred during our George Jones Tribute, which featured performances by T. Graham Brown, Larry Gatlin, Larry Stewart, Wade Hayes, Bryan White and Anita Cochran. George Jones’ wife, Nancy, was with us and was able to come up on stage with our host Lorianne Crook, where Nancy received an outpouring of love from the Artists and Guests. It was a very special moment for everyone. There were so many other musical performances, events and activities; we just don’t have space to mention them all.

We are incredibly grateful for all the support we received from the Artists and Guests on board The Country Music Cruise 2014. We are so excited to sail again in 2015 with an incredible lineup, including a special performance by Martina McBride, as well as Charley Pride, Larry Gatlin & the Gatlin Brothers, Lorrie Morgan and so many more. It’s going to be a real good time.
