Aug. 10 2009, Published 4:25 a.m. ET
The famed country duo Brooks & Dunn posted a note on their website Monday telling fans that they've decided to call it quits. "After 20 years of making music and riding this trail together, we have agreed as a duo that it's time call it a day. This ride has been everything and more than we could ever have dreamed.... We owe it all to you, the fans." Concerned with fan reaction they denied that there was any tension between them causing the split. "If you hear rumors, don't believe them, it's just time."
Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn became top selling country artists and are well known for the mega hit "Boot Scootin Boogie," that spawned line dances across the nation and a return to honkey tonk bars for many. The group told fans that they will still be going on tour in 2010 with The Last Rodeo tour, but dates are not yet announced. They will release a greatest hits album #1's...and then some on September 8.
