Drew Baldridge in Lake Charles

With  songs like "She's Somebody's Daughter" this is set to be a night of singing all the hits from start to finish. These days, Drew has racked up more than 350 million streams across his music catalog. "She's Somebody's Daughter" alone has picked up more than 120 million streams across all the major streaming apps, on top of hundreds of millions of views across social media. He's built his career as an independent artist, proving that hard work and great songs can still win.

And he's not just singing his own music. Some random trivia for you, Drew has written more than 500 songs over the years. 500, with cuts recorded by artists like Bailey Zimmerman, LOCASH, Chase Matthew, and several others.

I always enjoy seeing artists like this in a smaller venue. You get a different kind of show. It feels more personal. Everybody's singing along, and before long you've forgotten about work, mowing the grass, or whatever project is waiting for you at the house. That's what country concerts are supposed to be.

If your looking to buy tickets for the show, follow this link HERE. Make sure you get them early before they sell out. I have a feeling this one's gonna be worth checking out.

15 Craziest Laws in Louisiana

If you’ve lived in Louisiana long enough, you already know this state marches to its own beat. We fry just about everything, we’ll turn any weekend into a festival, and we have laws on the books that’ll make you stop mid-sentence and say, “Wait… that’s real?”

According to Kenny Habetz Injury Law, it sure is. Their Lafayette personal injury lawyers put together a list of the 15 craziest rules still floating around Louisiana law. Some of these will make you laugh. Some might make you scratch your head. And believe it or not, breaking a few of them could land you with a fine or even jail time.
