90s country music icons Little Texas touring 30 years after debut
MARSHALL, Texas (KTAL/KMSS) — Best known for their hit, award-nominated songs 'God Blessed Texas' and 'Kick a Little,' multiple-time Grammy nominees Little Texas have been making waves on the country chart since forming in 1988.
Memorial City Hall: Marshall, Texas's cultural and entertainment hub
This fall, the Nashville-based group is celebrating the 30-year anniversary of its debut on the country music charts with a tour, including a performance in Marshall.
The band boasts writing or co-writing, recording, and playing every note on every single they've released. Those releases have yielded 12 Top 20 singles (with 7 Top 10s and 3 No. 1s) and received multiple Grammy, Country Music Awards (CMA), and Academy of Country Music (ACM) nominations, winning the ACM for Top Vocal Group of 1994.
Lead guitarist and vocalist Porter Howell said, 'It's amazing that the run we had was 30 years ago, and here we are, still out there touring and having a blast, if not the most fun we've ever had. We are very grateful to still be playing these songs for fans, and to look out and see people who could not have possibly been alive back then singing every word is so gratifying. 90s country music is still going strong, and we are thrilled to have a place in it.'

Pressed Juicery Enters The Sparkling Beverage Category With New Line Of Functional Drinks
Wellness Refreshers are available now As the temperatures rise, so does the need for cold, refreshing beverages. Pressed Juicery is adding an exciting new product to its current lineup with the launch of Wellness Refreshers, a new line of sparkling functional beverages now available at all of the brand's locations nationwide. The California-based company—best known for its cold-pressed juices and plant-based soft serve—is introducing the drinks as part of a larger effort to evolve its stores into more dynamic wellness hubs. Made fresh in-store, each Refresher combines cold-pressed juice, functional wellness shots, and fruit toppings, with optional boosts like collagen, creatine, and L-glutamine. The drinks are designed to fit into a variety of daily routines: from a post-workout option to a lighter alternative to coffee or soda. 'We saw a clear opportunity to bring something new to the sparkling beverage quick service space—something fresh, functional, and made with real ingredients you can pronounce that tasted great and also had legitimate function,' says Justin Nedelman, CEO of Pressed Juicery. According to Nedelman, the product development process began with flavor, prioritizing a light and crisp profile that would be easy to incorporate into guests' everyday routines. From there, Pressed incorporated ingredients from its existing wellness shots including green tea, guarana, probiotics, and biotin to deliver targeted benefits tied to energy, skin health, digestion, and relaxation. Glow-Up: acai, aloe, and biotin deliver skin-nourishing benefits from the inside out. Served with ... More strawberries. 'Examples such as our 'Just Flow' Refresher incorporate our Calm Shot with ashwagandha and theanine, or our 'Glow Up' Refresher with our Beauty Shot with biotin,' he says. 'We also have everything from probiotic-focused Refreshers to support gut health to daily multivitamin Refreshers all made with fresh fruit toppings.' The drinks are served over ice in-store and topped with fruit, offering a more interactive alternative to canned functional beverages, which often rely on shelf-stable additives or synthetic ingredients. Nedelman says the company saw this as an opportunity to raise the bar on transparency and experience. 'There's something powerful about watching your drink get made right in front of you—with real ingredients, vibrant fruit, and the option to customize it to your functional needs,' he says. 'And because they're so customizable and made fresh, they can slot into anyone's routine without feeling like a compromise.' Gut-Feeling: A citrusy blend of mango, strawberry, and probiotics designed for digestive health and ... More gut balance. The launch builds on insights from Freeze, Pressed's made-to-order plant-based soft serve, which has become a top-selling product. 'Freeze showed us how much our guests love fresh, made-to-order options made with clean, simple ingredients you can pronounce,' Nedelman says. 'To expand and draft on our wellness halo, we are moving into our version of Refreshers.' Pressed plans to monitor consumer response closely, with the potential to expand the line into new formats over time. 'These drink combinations could easily be sold in restaurants or even long term as our own ready-to-drink functional sparkling beverage,' he adds. With more than 100 locations in nine states, Pressed is positioning its retail footprint as both a consumer touchpoint and a testing ground for innovation. The company sees the Refresher format as an opportunity to diversify its in-store offerings while giving guests more ways to engage with the brand in a format that feels flexible, approachable, and habit-forming. 'We're focused on building experiences, not just products,' says Nedelman. 'It's not just about what's in the bottle anymore—it's about the full experience. When you walk into a Pressed, we want it to feel like a place where you can refuel, recharge, and genuinely support your health.' Wellness Refreshers are now available in-store at all Pressed Juicery locations.

Grammy Winner 'Takes a Tumble' Mid-Performance in New Concert Video
Grammy Winner 'Takes a Tumble' Mid-Performance in New Concert Video originally appeared on Parade. Ed Sheeran fans are applauding his professionalism after tumbling to the ground during a recent performance. In a new video uploaded to social media by a fan, set to the viral "My Shayla" TikTok sound, the award-winning artist appeared to be heading to his mic stand in the center of a circular stage during one of his Mathematics tour's stops in Madrid over the weekend. His guitar was strapped around his shoulder but left to hang at his side while he held his hands high above his head and clapped along with the crowd. Unfortunately, a platform was rising in the middle of the stage, and the singer missed the lip of the step and went crashing down to the ground. Impressively, though, he bounced back up immediately, returning to his feet and securing his guitar in his hands to dive into the next song in his set. "Happens more than you think," Sheeran himself admitted in the comments, while his social media team quipped in another reply, "This audio is almost word-for-word what we said 🤣🩷." "Oh my god, my Sheeran," someone else joked. "I love how quick he got up though," another praised, adding that "Ed is the best to do it." "Carried on like a true pro ❤️," other fans applauded. "We will catch you Ed ❤️," someone else sweetly promised, while another ribbed on him a bit with the comment, "Cant say Im surprised 😂." "Teddy takes a tumble 😙," another joked. Another focused on the important questions, demanding to know, "is the guitar ok tho???" From the video, it appears that that is the case, though there's no official word on any damage—or lack thereof. "Poor guitar☹️," another Winner 'Takes a Tumble' Mid-Performance in New Concert Video first appeared on Parade on Jun 2, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 2, 2025, where it first appeared.

Taylor Swift's Via Carota Visit in NYC Captured in Video
Taylor Swift's hiatus hasn't been easy on the Swifties, and a video showed how her recent Via Carota visit proved to be their consolation. A viral clip on X (formerly Twitter) shared a brief look at Swift's stylish outing in New York City on Thursday night. Spectators' reactions clearly proved they couldn't get enough of it. A swarm of fans and paparazzi gathered outside the establishment – one of her favorite dining spots – to catch a rare glimpse. However, the clip only captured her walking out of the door and into her SUV, leaving everybody wanting more. A solo date in the Big Apple doesn't sound like a bad idea, especially when you're a pop icon. This viral video on X (formerly Twitter) showed Taylor Swift's recent outing in NYC as she exited Via Carota with a flock of fans and paps greeting her at the entrance. The singer's dress, which is only visible in the flashes in the clip, appeared to be a gorgeous black piece with multicoloured prints throughout. In addition, Swift was sporting her signature bangs, and her hair remained tied in a neat ponytail. She paired a handbag that one could barely notice, hanging on her arm. More interestingly, the video captured the stunned reactions of fans besides documenting the Grammy winner's rare outing. One can notice people with their mouths wide open in the background because it's not every day one encounters a celebrity like her walking by. A second clip showed a fellow diner's jaw-dropping reaction to seeing Swift entering the restaurant. The text over the post read, 'That face when you're having dinner and Taylor Swift shows up,' with a geotag of the location. Before videos of her solo dinner date in NYC's Via Carota went viral, Taylor Swift enjoyed a cozy date with Travis Kelce in Florida. Her NFL star boyfriend has reportedly been staying in Florida, turning his $20 million mansion into his 'base of operations' to train during the off-season. Swift reportedly pays him frequent visits, including once last week, when they enjoyed a dinner outing at the Harry's Bar & Restaurant in West Palm Beach. The post Taylor Swift's Via Carota Visit in NYC Captured in Video appeared first on Reality Tea.
