As you all are probably aware by now, Hootie & The Blowfish frontman and country music star, Darius Rucker, was shockingly arrested back in early February of this year in Williamson County, Tennessee.

And now, four months later, Darius has finally spoken out about the arrest and the events that led up to prior. In a recent interview with PEOPLE, the “Come Back Song” singer reveals that he was actually…

Takin’ y’all back in time to a young and mullet-less Morgan Wallen. During season 6 of The Voice in 2014, Wallen auditioned with the 2003 hit song “Collide” by Howie Day. During a sit-down with Country Countdown USA, Wallen explained that he wanted to sing country during his time on the hit singing competition series, but they wanted him to sing pop.

Takin’ a little trip down memory lane.. Back in 1989, “Friends In Low Places,” written by Earl Bud Lee and Dewayne Blackwell, was originally intended to be a George Strait song. Arguably the biggest hit of Garth Brooks’ career, the track was sent to him before he had ever released an album with the intention of being recorded as a demo for George Strait. Fast forward a year later, and the King never decided to cut it. “The reason they asked me to do the demo was because I wanted to be George Strait for years, so I do a…

In honor of those we lost to the good fight… Five years ago today, Justin Moore performed his hit single “The Ones That Didn’t Make It Back Home” on the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol at the 15th Annual National Memorial Day Parade and it was POWERFUL. The National Memorial Day Parade is the largest Memorial Day parade in the nation, drawing in more than 250,000 spectators on-site and millions more watching it live on TV. The single, off his 2019 record, Late Nights and Longnecks, honors the brave men and women who have served in the military as…

Jell Roll is a certified hype man. Last night, Noah Kahan took his headlining ‘We’ll Be Here Forever Tour’ to the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville and surprised fans when he brought out one of his “closest friends” for an exhilarating performance of his 2022 hit, “Stick Season.” With confetti filling the stadium, Jelly Roll expressed gratitude and praised Noah as being a “prolific” songwriter as the performance was coming to an end: “Y’all make some noise for one of the most prolific songwriters, one of the greatest f**king humans I’ve ever met.” While many wouldn’t consider Noah a “country” artist,…
