Quite possibly the longest running talent competition in country music, this year marks the 29th anniversary of the Country Showdown. Welcoming Texaco as it's brand new corporate sponsor, the 2011 Texaco Country Showdown shows promise to be their biggest and best ever.

For 29 years this great contest has given tens of thousands of country singers, songwriters, and musicians the chance of being discovered and the opportunity to strut their stuff in Music City in addition to the chance of winning the grand prize of $100,000 if they can make it through to winning at the finals. 450 radio stations across the country participated in 2010, promoting and hosting their local, state, and regional competitions to make it to Nashville and the national finals. All state winners receive a cash prize of $1,000 and advance to compete at 1 of the 5 regional contests.

Past contestants of the Country Showdown who've gone on to successful careers in country music include: Brad Paisley, Carrie Underwood, Billy Ray Cyrus, Tim McGraw, Martina McBride, Tracy Lawrence, Miranda Lambert, John Michael Montgomery, Garth Brooks, Mark Chestnut, Tracy Byrd, Jason Aldean, Ashton Shepard, Billy Dean, Sara Evans, and Sweethearts of the Rodeo.
