An Outlaw Legacy Makes Its Television Debut in the New CMT Pilot 'Shooter' Premiering October 29

NASHVILLE, Oct. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- As the son of an outlaw legend, Shooter Jennings emerges as more than a mere country legacy, but as a country-rocker with a no holds barred attitude. CMT cameras follow Waylon's infamous offspring for an intimate look at life as a performer, actor and all-around bad ass in the new CMT pilot SHOOTER premiering on Saturday, October 29 @ 10:00-10:30 PM (ET/PT).

The only child of Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter, Shooter Jennings lived his first few years in a crib on his parents' tour bus. By age 5, he was playing drums and since he picked up a guitar at 14, he has yet to put it down. Finding a classic mix between rock and country, Shooter released his first major album debut on Universal South, Put the O Back in Country, in 2005. During this time, cameras follow Jennings as he tours, makes visits to his label and finds a place in both Hollywood and the music industry.
