February 2, 2010

Keith Burns and Michelle Poe Sign Footwear Agreement With Dan Post Boot Company.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. –Country breakout act Burns & Poe is pleased to announce their relationship with Dan Post Boot Company for their Dan Post brand. The Clarksville, Tennessee-based western boot company has agreed to outfit Keith Burns and Michelle Poe with their boots as they embark on a tour and appearances to support new single and 2010 album release.

"We are such big fans of Dan Post boots. Dan Post has an array of boots that not only look trendy, they feel great and compliment the tastes of both men and women," Michelle Poe introduced. "Keith and I can't wait to kick it up on stage in our Dan Post boots." "Burns & Poe [Keith and Michelle] are a perfect fit for Dan Post: stylish, hard-working, determined, and most of all, comfortable and confident," said Sherry Weaver, Dan Post Boot Company Marketing Manager. "We look forward to seeing Burns & Poe climb up the charts...in Dan Post boots, of course!"

Dan Post Boot Company distributes footwear under the brands Dan Post, John Deere, Laredo Western Boots, Dingo and McRae Industrial. The company, located a stone's throw from Music City, has provided boots for many country stars over the years including Lee Greenwood, Joe Diffie, John Michael Montgomery, Bellamy Brothers and Drew Davis Band to name a few. Dan Post also provided boots to the motion picture movie casts of "Hannah Montana" (the movie) and "Did You Hear About The Morgans?" in 2009. With a commitment to comfort, the company stands apart from other boot manufacturers; Dan Post is proud to be synonymous with "Handcrafted Cushion Comfort."

Burns & Poe "ICY-HOT" WITH NATIONAL ANTHEM

January 26, 2010

Duo To Perform "The Star-Spangled Banner" At Predators-Avalanche Match-Up
NASHVILLE, Tenn. —The spunky and flirtatious country music Duo To Perform "The Star-Spangled Banner" At Predators-Avalanche Match-Up
The spunky and flirtatious country music duo Burns & Poe (Blue Steel Records) will heat up the ice to perform the national anthem for the Nashville Predators hockey team next week, Thursday, February 4, 2010, at 7:00 P.M. Central, when the team faces the Colorado Avalanche at the Sommet Center in downtown Nashville.

"We couldn't be more excited to sing in support of our hometown Predators; this Georgia boy and Florida gal are taking it to the ice," Keith Burns states. "They don't call it 'Smashville' for nothin'…the Avalanche are gonna come crashing down!"

"I go to nearly every home game; I love to see them get the 'thing in the thing' [wink, puck in the goal]," said Michelle Poe. "This is the first time I'll actually make it on the jumbo-tron!"
"She just wants to show off her new matching hat and scarf set," Burns adds in jest.
Sharing parts equally, Burns & Poe will perform their rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" a cappella.

The face-off for Burns & Poe begins in 2010. With Barbie and Ken looks and Sonny and Cher shtick, the pairing combines the extraordinary talents of Keith Burns (Trick Pony) and Michelle Poe (formerly a Dreamworks recording artist and bassist for Hank Williams, Jr. and Dierks Bentley.) Their power play single, "Don't Get No Better Than That," goes for radio adds February 2. The single comes from their Blue Steel Records project scheduled for release in May. In the weeks to come, Keith and Michelle will head down the highway on a major radio promotion tour in support of the single.

Burns & Poe PUT THEIR BEST FOOT FORWARD WITH "COWBOY STOMP"

November 18, 2009

Keith Burns, Michelle Poe, Cowboy Troy and the Dallas Cowboy's Cheerleaders Team Up For Anthem
NASHVILLE, Tenn. —Burns & Poe, country music's contending champion duo, headed to the Lonestar State to show their spirit to film the music video for the "Cowboy Stomp," a track dubbed as the Dallas Cowboys' 2009 season theme song. The pair (Keith Burns/Michelle Poe), along with Cowboy Troy and the world-famous Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, taped the anthem on Monday, November 16, inside the newly built Cowboys Stadium.

Written by Burns and Mark Oliverius, Cowboy Troy lends his vocals to rap on the rowdy number, accompanied by Burns & Poe; Michelle Poe channels Bonnie Raitt's soulful vocals in the background while Keith Burns demonstrates his masterful guitar skills. Since being selected as the theme song, "Cowboy Stomp" has been played in the Cowboys Stadium throughout the 2009 season; the video (produced by Banshee Music) is set to broadcast on the stadium's jumbotron, the largest in the world with a screen measuring 180 feet wide, 71 feet tall.

"This was a two-fold 'event' for us; to be invited to the Cowboys Stadium to film their anthem and to be surrounded by all those beautiful cheerleaders—all on my birthday. I couldn't think of a better way to spend it! ...'Don't Get No Better Than That,'" said Burns who celebrated his birthday on Monday.

The legendary Dallas Cowboys are tied at second among all NFL franchises in Super Bowl victories, first in Super Bowl appearances and are the only NFL team to record 20 consecutive winning seasons (from 1966 to1985). The new Cowboys Stadium, built just in time for the 2009 season, seats up to 100,000 fans and is the largest domed stadium in the world.

The "making of" video (as filmed in the recording studio) can be seen by visiting www.myspace.com/burnsandpoe. The song and corresponding music video follows on the heels of the pair's first single release since signing with Blue Steel Records last month; "Don't Get No Better Than That" (also a Burns/Oliverius co-write) is heading up the charts solidifying Burns & Poe as artists positioned to make a name for themselves as "Duo Of The Year" in 2010. Their full-length album will be released in the spring.

BLUE STEEL HEATS UP ROSTER WITH ADDITION OF Burns & Poe

October 15, 2009

Hot New Duo Set to Release New Single Under Blue Steel Logo
NASHVILLE, Tenn. —Steve Pope, CEO of Nashville's Blue Steel Records introduced a hot new addition to its roster; duo Burns & Poe (Keith Burns and Michelle Poe), join Anna Garrott and Latham Moore under the independent label's umbrella.

"Inking a deal with Burns & Poe signifies the direction this label is headed," said Steve Pope. "Michelle and Keith know the business and are skilled in the art of creating good music, and that's what we're all about. As a team, both as talented songwriters and vocalists, they're one-of-a-kind. We feel fortunate and excited in our newly-established relationship."

Blue Steel will release the pair's next single entitled "Don't Get No Better Than That" (written by Burns & Mark Oliverius/produced by Oliverius). The song is the quintessential American weekend anthem. In the spirit of classic working class songs similar to "Living On a Prayer" and contemporary tracks like "Down In Mississippi (Up To No Good)," Burns & Poe have captured the freedom associated with the open road and the unadulterated thrill of a change of scenery. Drum-driven and kicked into high-gear with electric guitar, Keith Burns and Michelle Poe "green light" the sunny day, lay-the-top-down, turn-up-the radio rocker.

The song, set to impact country radio on January 12, 2010 (Nov. 9, 2009 CDX/Vol. 487), will be the first from their Spring 2010 Blue Steel Records CD release.

Described as the Sonny & Cher of country, Burns & Poe have been performing side-by-side for more than a year sharing vocal talents that are equally identifiable and splitting them right down the middle in their performances. They made their debut together earlier this year on Evergreen Records with "It's Always a Woman" (Burns/Poe/ Don Goodman) which landed at No. 21 on the Music Row chart.

Prior to their formation as Burns & Poe, Keith Burns and Michelle Poe made names for themselves as veterans of the music industry in other endeavors. Keith Burns was a founding member of the Grammy-nominated, gold recording trio Trick Pony while Michelle Poe, formerly a Dreamworks recording artist, has been an integral part of national touring bands, singing back-up and playing bass behind the likes of international acts Dierks Bentley and Hank Williams, Jr.

The alliance comes on the heels of label's first impression that dubbed them as an "indie to watch;" Blue Steel (established in early 2009) made its entry into the music scene with the introduction of singing starlet Anna Garrott. Garrott's new single, "What A Way To Go," is on radio now; her CD project (ONLY TIME WILL TELL) will be available later this month.
