Nash Country Weekly was an American lifestyle weekly magazine about country artists and their music, established in 1994.[3] The magazine focused on country music stars and events, and regularly featured exclusive interviews with recording artists and country music news.[4] Country Weekly also cosponsored the CMT/TNN Country Weekly Music Awards, at the time the only nationally televised country music awards show that allowed fans to vote for the winners.[5]

In February 2009, Country Weekly reverted to a weekly magazine, having been issued fortnightly since 1999. The magazine also dropped subscriptions at that point (which it has since reinstated), and changed its logo.[6] The magazine was renamed Nash Country Weekly in June 2015, as a means of co-branding with Nash FM.[7] Nash Country Weekly closed its print publication in April 2016.[8]
