The Road Season 1 Episode 3 "The Factory, Dallas, TX, Part 2" – The second group of musicians takes the stage at The Factory in Deep Ellum as they battle it out during another night of dynamic and emotional performances. The musicians also give us an inside look into how they choose original and cover songs to captivate Keith Urban's audience, navigate soundcheck challenges, perform through an illness, and more.

The music competition series spotlights Keith Urban as he begins his journey to discover the next big Country music artist, with Grammy Award winner Gretchen Wilson serving as the "tour manager." Wilson will provide support and guidance to the musicians throughout the tour, sharing her own expertise and experiences on the road as a touring artist. In addition, Wilson will also take the stage to deliver a performance of her own as part of the show.

Singers will join the headliner on tour, performing as opening acts in venues across the country. Along the way, they'll compete to win over local fans to secure a spot in the next city and remain on the tour. Viewers will get a front row seat to see what touring life is like for an artist, with exclusive access to the behind-the-scenes workings of the music industry. Ever wonder what happens when some of the best up-and-coming musicians pile into a tour bus and tackle a grueling schedule in pursuit of their dreams? You're about to find out!
