Thomas Rhett goes 'Country Again' for 'Side A' of his new double album
When did Thomas Rhett know he would lean into being "Country Again" for his next album? He points to a moment in 2019, when a pair of Lucchese boots — the same he's worn since high school — felt better than another night in sneakers. "I woke up one day and things just shifted," Rhett told The Tennessean. "I don't know how to explain that except for the fact that I remember one night I put my cowboy boots on for the fist time to walk into a meet-and-greet and my band looked at me like I was a crazy person because I'd been wearing sneakers for the last four years on stage."
