A new single and a star-studded tribute for George Strait

George Strait's next album -- titled, no kidding, Twang -- won't be available at fine stores everywhere until early fall. But if you simply can't wait for fresh Strait, check this out: "Living for the Night," the debut single from the King of Country Music's eagerly awaited CD, will be available to radio stations across the country tomorrow (May 28) at noon CDT.

But wait, there's more: A galaxy of country superstars will celebrate Strait tonight when CBS airs George Strait: ACM Artist of the Decade All-Star Concert. The two-hour special, set to begin at 7 p.m. CDT, will feature performances by Dierks Bentley, Brooks & Dunn, Jamie Foxx, Faith Hill, Jack Ingram, Alan Jackson, Jamey Johnson, Toby Keith, Miranda Lambert, Martina McBride, Tim McGraw, Montgomery Gentry, John Rich, LeAnn Rimes, Blake Shelton, Sugarland, Taylor Swift, Keith Urban and Lee Ann Womack.
