USA Network's "Nashville Star," the original grassroots talent search to find America's next great country music star and the nation's top-rated country music program, will begin its fifth season with Grammy-nominated host Jewel and co-hosted by RAYBAW/Warner Bros. Record's Cowboy Troy.

This season on "Nashville Star," country music Icon Randy Owen and Country Star Blake Shelton join movie and music industry executive Anastasia Brown at the judges table. "Nashville Star" will also feature a special musical guest each week.

The first four seasons of "Nashville Star" have launched the careers of promising artists including Chris Young, Buddy Jewell, Miranda Lambert and Erika Jo. Buddy Jewell debuted his self-titled CD at No. 1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart and was eventually certified gold by the RIAA. Runner-up Miranda Lambert became a household name when her "Kerosene" became the highest-selling debut album of 2005 and then went on to be certified gold as well. Erika Jo landed at No. 5 on the same chart with her self-titled debut CD and at No. 27 on the Hot 200 Album Chart (all genres), outselling Kenny Chesney, Gretchen Wilson, Big & Rich, Tim McGraw and Shania Twain, among others. Most recently, Chris Young debuted his self-entitled CD at No. 3 on the Billboard Country Albums chart, making him the top selling debut male artist of 2006.

The winner of this season's "Nashville Star" will receive a major music recording contract with the Warner Bros. Label Group's Warner Bros. Nashville, which is home to multi-platinum and platinum superstars including Faith Hill, Big & Rich, Randy Travis, Blake Shelton, The Wreckers and "Nashville Star" co-host Cowboy Troy, as well as many talented young acts just breaking into the business.

For its record-setting fifth season, over 20,000 people auditioned in 13 markets nationwide for the producers of "Nashville Star," in addition to the thousands that submitted videos of themselves for consideration.

SONIC, America's Drive-In (NASDAQ/GS: SONC), the nation's largest drive-in restaurant chain, is the exclusive presenting partner of the fifth season of "Nashville Star."

"Nashville Star" is created by Reveille and executive produced by Ben Silverman ("The Biggest Loser," "The Office") and H.T. Owens ("The Restaurant," "30 Days"). Jeff Boggs will executive produce in association with Reveille. Todd Lubin ("30 Days," "Black.White") serves as co-executive producer. "Nashville Star" is produced by Jon Small ("Garth Brooks Live From Central Park," "Billy Joel Live at Yankee Stadium") and his production company, Picture Vision, alongside co-executive producer Mark Koops ("The Restaurant," "Blow Out").
