Taste of Country’s summit to decide the Top Songs of the Century didn’t spend much time on Zac Brown Band’s “Chicken Fried.” The participants unanimously agreed the group's debut hit belongs on this list.
The Zac Brown Band' first album dropped in 2008 but the singer was writing, touring and recording for nearly a decade before that. The roots of those early projects still pop up in today's albums. One phrase comes up so often you almost wonder if he's trying to make a point.
Zac Brown Band will have their toes in the water in early 2017. The band has announced the return of their Castaway With Southern Ground event in Riviera Maya, Mexico, for next January, where they'll perform two shows at the all-inclusive Hard Rock Hotel.
Country music is as American as football / apple pie / insert-any-other-cliche-phrase-here, so it makes sense that, from time to time, the genre's artists would don some patriotic clothing.
