Last fall, Eric Church was standing in his office, perusing the concert photos hanging on the wall, when one caught his eye. It captures the defiant country superstar standing amid a throng of fans packed tightly around him, their arms raised and waving like a many-tentacled creature. Church looks up at the camera from behind his omnipresent Ray-Bans, a sly smile on his face. Today, he has another perspective on the scene. “It looks so strange to see me in the middle of this pit, hugging ever...

Chesney sells this powerful ballad, from his current album Here and Now, by smartly underplaying the emotional wallop it packs. The tribute to a friend who is no longer in his life — by death or some other reason —is a beautiful salute to the memories that will live forever.

Rascal Flatts scored the most important signature song of their career with "Bless the Broken Road," but they were not the first act to record it ... or the second or the third, for that matter. In fact, the song had been kicking around Nashville for years before the hitmaking trio took it to No. 1 on Feb. 12, 2005. Marcus Hummon, Bobby Boyd and Jeff Hanna from the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band wrote "Bless the Broken Road" in 1994, inspired by a conversation Hanna had with Hummon right after returnin...

Jay DeMarcus, “Music Man” When Rascal Flatts’ bassist DeMarcus lost his father last year, his thoughts turned to how to memorialize him. “"The night he passed, I sat down at that piano, and the lyrics to this song just poured over and spilled out of me,” he says.
