Lauren echoed Thomas Rhett’s sentiments, explaining, “Football was everything to my family growing up and Thomas Rhett and I have enjoyed passing our love of football down to our daughters.

About Cole Swindell 

Multi-Platinum selling superstar Cole Swindell released his fifth studio album, Stereotype, to massive success. The project has already charted three back-to-back multi-week No. 1 hits: the Gold-certified “Single Saturday Night,” the Platinum-certified “Never Say Never” (with Lainey Wilson) and, most recently, the Platinum-certified, five-week chart-topper “She Had Me At Heads Carolina.” In the seven years since his debut on Warner Music Nashville, Swindell has racked up an impressive 12 No. 1 singles as an artist – 13 as a songwriter – 11 certified Platinum singles (four singles at 2x Platinum), a Platinum-certified debut album (Cole Swindell) and a Gold-certified sophomore album (You Should Be Here). The Georgia hitmaker has over 5.2 BILLION global career streams. His massive, GRAMMY-nominated hit “Break Up In The End” was named the 2019 NSAI Song of the Year. Swindell is nominated for two CMA Awards for Musical Event of the Year and Music Video of the Year for “Never Say Never” with Lainey Wilson. He officially became a headliner on his own in 2018 with his Reason To Drink Tours, and is currently out on the road with Ashley Cooke and Dylan Marlowe for his Back Down To The Bar Tour.

About Nate Smith 

With a mix of gritty backwoods soul, rock ‘n’ roll swagger and velvet-thunder vocals, Nate Smith first chased his neon dreams to Nashville in his early 20s – but it didn’t stick. The disheartened Smith returned home and thought he was “100-percent done” with his artistic journey…until a crucible of change burned away the past. In 2018, Smith lost everything he owned in the devastating Camp Fire which tore through Paradise, California. Although his family was safe, he struggled to cope and turned back to music, hoping that it would help comfort himself and others. Help it did, inspiring a month-long road trip across the U.S. to Music City, writing music and playing dive bars along the way. Soon after his arrival to Nashville, Nate released his biggest song to date, “Wildfire,” and landed a publishing deal with Sony ATV. Since then, he’s released new music including “Sleeve” and “Under My Skin,” which has amassed over 70 million on-demand streams to date. The singer was named a Spotify Hot Country Artist to Watch for 2021 – an accurate prediction as he rounded out the year with a record deal with Sony Music Nashville and is now making waves with his latest release, “Whiskey On You,” which is now Gold-certified and Top 15 and climbing at country radio.

Nashville, TN – October 14, 2019 – Current multi-CMA Awards nominee, People’s Choice Awards nominee and CMT 2019 Artists of the Year honoree Thomas Rhett checked off another milestone as he concluded his VERY HOT SUMMER TOUR with a sold out hometown show at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Saturday (10/12). Headlining Bridgestone for the first time, Thomas Rhett stacked the night with “surprise-filled” (Tennessean) moments including welcoming Little Big Town onstage for their collaboration “Don’t Threaten Me With A Good Time,” followed by HARDY joining for the newly-released “Nothing Out Here” and Florida Georgia Line’s Tyler Hubbard for the Thomas Rhett co-written Florida Georgia Line hit “Round Here.” With production including a thrust that spanned the length of the arena, pyro and confetti, the entertainer’s hit-packed set brought the “sold-out, almost exclusively millennial and on their feet throughout the music” crowd Saturday night (Tennessean).

“At the top of his musical game” (Winnipeg Free Press), Thomas Rhett “brought the audience to their feet” over the course of his 40-city tour “where they remained until the encore 90 minutes later” (US Weekly), as he sold more ]]]] 775,000 tickets to his sold-out VERY HOT SUMMER TOUR in 2019. Fans were treated to nonstop showmanship as the in-demand entertainer had a natural “charm, voice and presence that were all perfect” (OnMilwaukee) and cruised through his catalog of multi-PLATINUM hits and new music from his history-making fourth album CENTER POINT ROAD (The Valory Music Co).

“Deafening screams echoed throughout PNC Music Pavilion…the atmosphere was electric” – Charlotte Observer 

“You wonder why Rhett isn’t a finalist for entertainer of the year for 2019’s CMA Awards.” – MinneapolisStar Tribune

“These sweet tunes — less than a month old but with plenty of admirers Wednesday — fit right in with set-list staples like “Sixteen” and “Die a Happy Man,” which drew swooning singalongs from the sold-out crowd of about 23,000. Like summer’s (eventual) return, Rhett’s country stardom has long seemed inevitable.” – Milwaukee Journal Sentinel 

“While other arena-rocking country dudes are cranking out party anthems, he’s carved out a successful niche as modern country’s family man.” – The Tennessean 

“The “Craving” star sure brought the heat for his performance” – The Des Moines Register 

“He’s the reigning ACM male artist of the year, and hit singles keep pouring out of him. Nearly all of the songs he played during his 90-minute show have spent time at or near the top of country charts.” – St. Louis Post Dispatch 

“Thomas Rhett has achieved many goals in an impressive career that has already resulted in a slew of No. 1 hits and awards. But in Chicago on Saturday night (Sept. 14), the Georgia native proved he’s poised to make himself Entertainer of the Year soon.” – Taste of Country 

Up next, Thomas Rhett will be honored and performing at CMT’s 2019 Artists of the Year special live from Nashville on October 16 (10/16 at 7:00P CT on CMT). This year marked the release of Thomas Rhett’s fourth studio album CENTER POINT ROAD, which connects fans to his past, weaving together autobiographical stories with familiar sounds that have propelled his meteoric career. The follow up to his GRAMMY-nominated, PLATINUM-selling No. one album LIFE CHANGES that has surpassed one billion streams, CENTER POINT ROAD is a return to Thomas Rhett’s roots. All those moments and more are revealed through a series of deeply-personal twists and turns – but this project isn’t about pining for glory days. It’s about knowing where you came from and who you really are, regardless of how much has changed. It’s about pushing forward, chasing crazy dreams and raising a family, and staying true to yourself in the process. The album’s lead single “Look What God Gave Her” recently soared to No. One and is RIAA-certified PLATINUM, following a slew of RIAA-certified PLATINUM and GOLD chart-toppers, bringing Thomas Rhett’s No. One tally at Country radio to 13 as his “emotional epic” (Billboard) current Top 15 single “Remember You Young” continues its fast climb at radio. Thomas Rhett was named Country radio’s most played artist of 2018, following a CMA Triple Play award for penning three No. One songs within a 12-month period, adding to his collection of trophies from the Country Music Association, Academy of Country Music, Billboard Music Awards, CMT Music Awards and more.

St. Jude Backstage At Westwood One’s Radio Row For The ACM Awards

Photo credit: Channel Greatness

St. Jude patients Londyn and Addi got an experience they won’t soon forget this weekend while in Las Vegas for the ACM Awards. Artists in town for the awards show including Florida Georgia Line, Lady Antebellum, Little Big Town, Lauren Alaina, Luke Bryan, and Reba McEntire stopped by to say hello and spend time with the St. Jude patients. Londyn taught ACM Entertainer of the year, Keith Urban and ACM Male vocalist of the year, Thomas Rhett how to play her favorite game of rock, paper, scissors. She also talked with the stars asking Jake Owen, “If you could have a superpower, what would it be?” Jake told Londyn that he’d want to make everyone feel really good and healthy all of the time. Londyn is 6 years old and fighting Neuroblastoma at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

ACM new Female Vocalist of the year, Ashley McBryde and 5 year old Addi sang a song together from the “The Little Mermaid” and Kix Brooks from Brooks & Dunn shared his cowboy hat with her during their visit.

The country music community has raised more than $800 million for St. Jude since the Country Cares for St. Jude kids program was founded 30 years ago.  Families at St. Jude never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.

NASHVILLE, TN (March 1, 2019) – With 12 No. 1s to his name and a reputation as one of Country’s most boldly unpredictable stars, MULTI-PLATINUM selling performer THOMAS RHETT returns today with the kinetic romance of his brand new single, “Look What God Gave Her,” available now. “On a rare trajectory” (Variety), Thomas Rhett is set to debut “Look What God Gave Her” and more hotly-anticipated new music this weekend on NBC’s Saturday Night Live tomorrow at 10:30P CT, making him the first Country artist of the show’s current season. Leading into the performance, fans can pre-order his highly anticipated upcoming fourth studio album CENTER POINT ROAD today, before its May 31 release on The Valory Music Co.

“I think I played this song 2,000 times in a month after we first wrote it,” said Thomas Rhett. “It makes me want to dance. It makes me want to move. And to me, the song really is a celebration of how awesome my wife is. I know I’ve done that in the past, but I’ve never really done it in an uptempo way.”

Serving as the first taste of what’s to come, Thomas Rhett describes the irresistibly uptempo jam as “the perfect song to take fans into summer” – and also the perfect track to introduce his next project. Featuring a daring electro-Country sound, stunning harmony stacks and a smooth talking vocal hook, Thomas Rhett co-wrote the infectious standout alongside his hit-making father, Rhett Akins as well as Julian Bunetta, John Ryan and J Cash.

“I was really glad we were able to nail this one,” Thomas Rhett added. “My wife is so beautiful, but at the same time she’s inwardly beautiful, she’s funny, she’s kind, she’s the best mom I know … and she’s hilarious. It’s really just about thanking God for the human being He made, and singing it in a fun way.”

Thomas Rhett co-produced “Look What God Gave Her” with Bunetta and Dann Huff, both of whom are longtime collaborators with producer credits on his previous two albums – PLATINUM-certified LIFE CHANGES and TANGLED UP (The Valory Music Co.). More details about Thomas Rhett’s fourth studio album, named after the street in his Tennessee hometown that shaped and influenced much of his life experiences, will be revealed soon, with Country radio’s most-played artist of 2018 hinting that it will find him “getting back to his roots.”
