Your Random Weekend Memo

Here's a part of Crystal Bowersox's recent trip to Nashville I didn't know about: She got to meet a California Raisin. This came after her performance for the BlissDom bloggers' conference at the Opryland Hotel.

If you've spent time on iTunes this week, you may have noticed that a duo called the Civil Wars has spent much of the week in the top-selling album spot with Barton Hollow . Half of that duo, Joy Williams, is one of David Archuleta's songwriting partners , helping him pen The Other Side of Down and My Kind of Perfect for the most recent album. The Civil Wars, which consists of Williams and John Paul White, has other high-profile fans, too. Taylor Swift attended the duo's show at Nashville's Belcourt Theater Wednesday night and tweeted about it (which probably didn't hurt their sales any).

Check out the music video for Barton Hollow , the title track of the Civil Wars' album.

If you like what you see and hear, iTunes is offering a free download of the track Barton Hollow this week. Also, be sure to check out the bonus-track cover of the Jackson 5's I Want You Back .

Have a great Super Bowl weekend!
