- Brooks & Dunn is een countrymuziek singer-songwriter duo. Kix Brooks en Ronnie Dunn debuteerde als Brooks & Dunn in 1991. Tussen 1992 en 2006 hebben ze elk jaar, behalve in 2000, de Vocal Duo Award van de Country Music Association gewonnen. In 1994 wonnen ze ook de CMA Album of the Year award. Tot nu toe heeft het duo 19 CMA awards ontvangen en zijn ze het meest succesvolle country duo ooit. In 2008 kregen ze een ster op de beroemde Hollywood Walk of Fame. De muziek van Brooks & Dunn dekt de hele moderne countrymuziek, van Ronan Keating's "The Long Goodbye" tot het door Rivers Rutherford geschreven "Ain't Nothing About You" en het door gospelmuziek geïnspireerde "Believe". Ze worden ook gezien als de pioneers van de line dance hype in het midden van de jaren '90. Één van hun hits, "Boot Scootin' Boogie" is hier het beste voorbeeld van. Beide leden van de band schrijven, zingen en spelen de gitaar. Het grootste deel van hun materiaal is door één of beide geschreven, waaronder de 2004 hit "Red Dirt Road" welke het duo samen geschreven heeft. Beide artiesten hebben ook geschreven voor andere artiesten. Ronnie Dunn schreef mee aan Toby Keith's "Don't Leave I Think I Love You". Over het algemeen zingt Dunn in de liedjes die als single worden gelanceerd. In de recente hits "It's Getting Better All the Time", "That's What It's All About", "Play Something Country", "Believe", "Building Bridges" en "Hillbilly Deluxe" is Dunn de zanger. Brooks & Dunn staan bekend om hun hoog energetische shows. In recente tours zaten de Australische country zanger Keith Urban, duo Montgomery Gentry, de band Sugarland en de succesvolle nieuwkomer Gretchen Wilson. In 2006 opende het duo voor de Rolling Stones in Omaha. Liedjes van Brooks & Dunn zijn gebruikt door de Amerikaanse President George W. Bush als officiële campagne liedjes bij zijn verkiezing en herverkiezing. In 2000 koos de toen nog Gouverneur van Texas de hit "Hard Workin' Man" en in 2004 koos de President de patriotische hit "Only in America". Brooks en Dunn steunden beide verkiezingscampagnes van Bush en traden op bij een Republikeinse rally met Laura Bush op de avond voor de verkiezingen. Hun recentste album is Hillbilly Deluxe met de single "Play Something Country". Het duo komt ook voor op albums van verscheidene andere artiesten. Ze namen het duet If you See Him/If You See Her op met Reba McEntire en recent nam Ronnie dunn een duet op met Keith Urban voor Urban's nieuwste album Love, Pain & the Whole Crazy Thing.
