Brooks burst vocal chord cancels gig
Thursday, March 22, 2012 – Vocal chord problems axed a Kix Brooks concert Friday night in Florida, but his former band mate will step in.
Jacksonville, Fla. radio station Gator Country 99.9, announced earlier today that Brooks will be unable to perform Friday night due to a vocal cord that burst.
Upon hearing the news while on vacation with his family, former Brooks & Dunn duo partner Ronnie Dunn volunteered to step-in and perform for the fans and the Gator Country listeners.
No further information could be obtained about Brooks, who just released his first single New to This Town.
