The mastermind behind Joe Nichols’ debut single, “The Impossible” is none other than Lee Thomas Miller, a Nashville veteran with over 30 years in the songwriting business who’s penned hits for Trace Adkins (“You’re Gonna Miss This”), Garth Brooks (“People Loving People”), Brad Paisley (“Perfect Storm”) and even Jamey Johnson (“In Color”). The Kentucky native has a long list of iconic songs and artists…
