INFO ON THE ARTIST:
Brooks & Dunn
is an American
country music
duo consisting of
Kix Brooks
and
Ronnie Dunn
, both vocalists and songwriters. The duo was founded in 1990 through the suggestion of
Tim DuBois
. Before the foundation, both members were solo recording artists. Brooks wrote number one singles for
John Conlee
,
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
, and
Highway 101
; both he and Dunn also charted two solo singles apiece in the 1980s, with Brooks also releasing an album for
Capitol Records
in 1989.
Signed to
Arista Nashville
in 1991, the duo has recorded ten studio albums, one Christmas album, and three compilation albums for the label. They also have released fifty singles, of which twenty went to number one on the
Hot Country Songs
charts and nineteen more reached top ten. Two of these number-one songs, "
My Maria
" (a cover of the
B.W. Stevenson
song) and "
Ain't Nothing 'Bout You
", were the top country songs of 1996 and 2001, respectively, according to the
Billboard Year-End
charts. The latter is also the duo's longest-lasting number one, at six weeks. Several of their songs have also reached the
Billboard
Hot 100
, with the number 25 peaks of "Ain't Nothing 'bout You" and "
Red Dirt Road
" being their highest there. Brooks & Dunn also won the
Country Music Association
Vocal Duo of the Year award every year between 1992 and 2006, except for 2000. Two of their songs won the
Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal
: "
Hard Workin' Man
" in 1994 and "My Maria" in 1996. All but two of the duo's studio albums are
certified platinum
or higher by the
Recording Industry Association of America
; their highest-certified is their 1991 debut
Brand New Man
, which is certified sextuple-platinum for shipments of six million copies.
The duo's material is known for containing influences of
honky-tonk
, mainstream country, and
rock
, as well as the contrast between Brooks' and Dunn's singing voices and on-stage personalities, although some of their music has also been criticized as formulaic. Their 1992 single "
Boot Scootin' Boogie
" helped re-popularize
line dancing
in the United States, and 2001's "
Only in America
" was used by both
George W. Bush
and
Barack Obama
in their respective presidential campaigns. Brooks & Dunn has collaborated with several artists, including
Reba McEntire
,
Vince Gill
,
Sheryl Crow
,
Mac Powell
,
Billy Gibbons
, and
Jerry Jeff Walker
among others.
After announcing their retirement in August 2009, they performed their final concert on September 2, 2010 at the
Bridgestone Arena
in Nashville, Tennessee. Both Brooks and Dunn have continued to record for Arista Nashville as solo artists. Dunn released a
self-titled album
in 2011, which included the Top 10 country hit "
Bleed Red
", while Brooks released
New to This Town
in September 2012. The duo reunited in 2015 for a series of concerts with McEntire in
Las Vegas, Nevada
.
"Building Bridges" was covered by country music duo
Brooks & Dunn
and released as the third single released from their 2005 album
Hillbilly Deluxe
. It features
Sheryl Crow
and
Vince Gill
on background vocals. The song peaked at number four on the country music charts.
Critical reception
Deborah Evans Price of
Billboard
described the single favorably, saying that Dunn's "lead vocal is as compelling as always." She also thought that Gill's and Crow's voices made the song "distinctive".
