He’s synonymous with country, but you’d have to be high to say Willie Nelson doesn’t know a thing or two about rock ‘n’ roll. The Texas icon, older than the genre itself, built a career off the back of his own legendary country songbook as well as a knack for turning songs of all genres into something fitting his unique vocal phrasing and guitar picking. With a body of work as long and prolific as his, it’s no surprise he’s taken on his share of classic rock favorites, and even rubbed elbows with some of the most enduring artists in the genre. Here are 10 of our favorites. The Beatles Between ...

For more than a century, “The Star-Spangled Banner” has been played or sung before sporting events across the nation. And while numerous singers both acclaimed and unknown have taken on this heralded song, country artists seem to do it best. It’s no surprise the Super Bowl has selected a singer from country music to sing our nation’s anthem the last four years in a row. Our artists belt out those words with authority and authenticity. The History of the National AnthemAccording to the Smithsonian, “The Star-Spangled Banner” was written in 1814 by a poet named Francis Scott Key. After seeing th...

Post Malone covering George Strait was unexpected if you’d not been paying attention. The “I Had Some Help” hitmaker’s catalog of classic country covers runs deep. Contemporary artists like Blake Shelton, Morgan Wallen and (possibly) Luke Combs will dot his official country debut on Aug. 16, but over the last several months the Texan has pulled out hits from George Strait, Randy Travis, John Michael Montgomery and about 10 others. We found video of some of his most memorable country covers. Subscribe to Taste of Country on Youtube Stagecoach 2024 featured a setlist filled with great country so...

Several of these forgotten 2000s country songs are needed today more than ever. It was a less divisive time in country music and even though we bickered about what is and isn’t “real country” the assaults were less personal. Politics didn’t get in the way of enjoying good country music until late in the decade but even that song — No. 35 on our list — hits different 15 years later. These forgotten songs come from forgotten artists in some cases. When was the last time you thought about Tommy Shane Steiner or Steve Holy? Have you kept up with the goings on of Emerson Drive, a Canadian country g...

This list of top songs from country music’s top artists drills down to the best from legends like Alan Jackson and Tim McGraw, to relative newcomers like Lainey Wilson. There’s just one song per artist, and we’ll stand by our picks for perennial hitmakers like Kenny Chesney and Blake Shelton. Eric Church fans probably won’t agree (when do they?) but we’ll stand by that, too. The choice for Jelly Roll was simple. Picking Cody Johnson‘s No. 1 song was trickier because the Texan has so many great album cuts. Related: See the Most-Played Country Song from the Year You Were Born Morgan Wallen, Mira...

As country music’s popularity continues to spread across the globe, many artists are experiencing new cultures and traditions as they journey to far off lands to perform their music. This can open the door to some bizarre behavior, like Australia’s affinity for the shoey. What Is a Shoey?For those unfamiliar with the term, a shoey simply means drinking from a shoe. Yes, that’s right — a shoe. As far as Google goes, there isn’t a right or wrong way to perform a shoey. One simply removes their shoe, pours their drink into it and gulps it down. There are no guidelines to what kind of shoe or what...

Live albums tend to arrive at significant moments for the Eagles. They released Eagles Live mere months after their first era ended. They released Hell Freezes Over to herald the beginning of their second. Joe Walsh issued a live project that capped the period just before he joined the group and another just after their initial split. The Eagles also confirmed their modern-era lineup with Live from the Forum MMXVIII after Glenn Frey‘s sudden death. Frey and fellow co-founding members Randy Meisner and Don Henley have produced concert recordings that likewise included key songs from their time ...

Subscribe to Taste of Country on Youtube The songs that made Hank Williams, Jr., a Country Music Hall of Famer are just part of the conversation. The songs that kept him out for so long deserve as much consideration. Not that any should have. Williams has spent the last four decades of his career playing by his own rules so, sure, he was going to upset the establishment. Beginning with the Family Tradition album, he found an original road to travel, but never lost connection to the music his father recorded in giving birth to popularized country music. Like the Outlaw generation before him, he...

George Jones and Billy Ray Cyrus know how to honor fallen members of the United States military, but they’re not alone. Our list of the 12 best songs for Memorial Day could have swelled to 20 with ease. Tim McGraw‘s addition was debuted live during an awards show and was an instant classic. Go back a few years to find a hit song from the Dixie Chicks, and even further to find one from the Statler Brothers. The calendar only recognizes the sacrifices the men and women of the U.S. military make once each year, but country stars like Lee Brice do it at every show. Subscribe to Taste of Country on...
