TRACE ADKINS IN CONCERT AT TJ'S CORRAL

TRACE ADKINS

A Nashville icon for more than two decades, Trace Adkins has made his mark on the country music industry.  11 million albums sold.  Time-honored hit singles, Momentous, fiery and always memorable live performances.  GRAMMY nominations.  CMT and ACM awards.  Nearly 200 million plays on You Tube.  Even a slew of movie and TV roles have come the  Grand Ole Opry member’s way.  But ask Adkins what’s left to prove in his career and the small-town Louisiana native says it’s simple:  the itch remains.  To create.  To collaborate.  To continually feel the excitement that comes after whipping up a new song out of thin air and laying it down to tape.  It’s what, after all these years, he says he still craves.  “It’s an adrenaline rush and I love it,” says Adkins, who is back in the studio working on a new project, his Ain’t That Kind of Cowboy EP, released on October 16th.  “There’s nothing else like that,” the Louisiana native offers.  “That is still my favorite thing to do in the business.  Go into the studio with some lyrics and a melody and then let the finest musicians in the world help turn it into something magical.  It liberates me.  I just dig it!”
