BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., July 9, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- VIA/B | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- CMT's highest rated series ever, GONE COUNTRY, returns with Nashville hitmaker, John Rich, as host for a second season of antics with a brand new cast of characters who are each vying for a chance at country success. Featuring a cast that includes performers from various facets of the entertainment industry, GONE COUNTRY indoctrinates seven celebrities in the ins and outs of the country music business for a chance to break into the country music genre, and premieres on Friday, August 15 at 8:00 p.m., ET/PT on CMT.

The cast for GONE COUNTRY includes Sebastian Bach -- singer, songwriter, Broadway actor, former lead singer of Skid Row; Irene Cara -- GRAMMY(R) and Academy Award(R) winning singer, songwriter, actress, "Fame"; Mikalah Gordon -- singer, host, actress, 2005 "American Idol" finalist; Jermaine Jackson -- television personality, lead singer of The Jackson 5; Chris Kirkpatrick -- television personality, music producer, member of *NSYNC; Lorenzo Lamas -- musical theater actor, actor "Renegade" and "Falcon Crest"; and Sean Young -- actress, "Blade Runner" and "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective."

The competition heats up in this second season with even more drama as Rich enlists help from his Nashville friends to put these seven country music-driven celebrities to the test during this two-week challenge. Each celebrity will again be paired with two of Nashville's finest songwriters with whom they write a country single. In addition to meeting with songwriters, the cast will compete in challenges that test them musically and physically to adapt to a life in country music, both on and off the stage. At the end of the two weeks, the artist that is most prepared to impress a country audience, as determined by Rich, will record and release their single to country radio.

GONE COUNTRY is executive produced by David Garfinkle and Jay Renfroe of Renegade 83 Productions. Marc Oswald serves as executive producer. Melanie Moreau and Bob Kusbit serve as executive producers for CMT.
