Rascal Flatts, comprised of Jay DeMarcus, Gary Levox,
and Joe Don Rooney, have taken the country music scene
by storm in only a few years. DeMarcus and Levox, second
cousins from Columbus, Ohio, were the first two in the
group and later asked Rooney to fill in as a guitar player
for one of the band’s sets. The group is best known
for its harmony and catchy verses with lead singer Levox
leading the way. The group released their first single “Prayin’ For
Daylight” in 2000 and followed that up with the release
of their first album. The self titled debut featured hits
like “This Everyday Love” and “I’m
Movin’ On” and earned them a Vocal Group of
the Year Award from numerous groups. The group followed
up a successful debut with “Melt” in 2002,
an album that would end up reaching platinum sales levels
after just five weeks behind hits like “These Days,” “I
Melt,” “Love You Out Loud,” and “Mayberry.” The
group has just recently released their third album entitled “Feels
Like Today” and it’s already well on it’s
way to following its predecessor. Songs like “Feels
Like Today” and “God Blessed The Broken Road
(That Led Me Straight To You)” are already fan favorites
and the band is also amazing in the live setting.
