I love it when the unexpected happens and music styles and genres are not a black and white issue. It used to be that if you were into Country or Rap, it was expected that you listen to that style and only that style of music on and off the stage. I love it when musicians just love music regardless of what genre or style it gets boxed in. Like how about seeing soft rock/pop artist Matt Nathanson on his favorite show That Metal Show, or when I ask Chris Jericho of Fozzy what is the artist I would find most surprised at finding on his Ipod and he answers “Katy Perry, I love Katy Perry”.
Well it happened again at Winter Jam in Tulsa, OK. Modern rockers Thousand Foot Krutch were playing to a nearly sold out crowd at the BOK center and music superstar Carrie Underwood joined them to sing their song, “Let The Sparks Fly.” “Carrie Underwood ladies and gentleman,” shouts TFK frontman Trevor McNevan from stage as the crowd erupts in excitement during the performance. Underwood, who played TFK’s “Let The Sparks Fly” in her pre-show on her own world tour, later tweets, “Just got to rock the stage with @OfficialTFK in Tulsa! So much fun! Thanks, guys for letting me crash your party!” Here is a fan shot video of that performance. Carrie comes onstage at around 2:00.
Following Winter Jam, TFK will be featured on Monster Energy’s Carolina Rebellion (Concord, NC 5/3), Rock On The Range (Columbus, OH 5/16) and Rocklahoma (Pryor, OK 5/23), as well as will headline many major festivals this summer. For all the latest events, go to www.thousandfootkrutch.com.
