Western Days, July 4th- Cloverdayle- Country
In 2010, Cloverdayle teamed up with songwriter and producer Terry McBride, ("Play Something Country", "If You See Him, If You See Her"), and Dwain Rowe, (long-time band leader for Brooks & Dunn), to record a 4-song EP titled Young and Reckless. That project opened up numerous doors and has allowed the duo to embark upon their most recent adventure.
In the spring of 2012, Cloverdayle began work on their first full length album in Nashville called 9 Miles Down a 10 Mile Road.

Outside of the studio and songwriting worlds, Cloverdayle is best known for their energy-fueled and compelling live show and has had the privilege of sharing the stage with industry heavyweights including Kenny Chesney, Lady Antebellum, Jason Aldean, Tim McGraw, Wynonna Judd, Josh Turner, Eric Church, Jake Owen and Lee Brice.
