It has been almost five years since Rodney Atkins released Take a Back Road. But don't worry, the long wait will soon come to an end, and new music might even be on the way before summer rolls in.
Today (Sept. 11) marks the 13th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, when terrorists hijacked several passenger planes and flew them into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
Rodney Atkins took a few minutes from his busy schedule during the Music City Gives Back event before CMA Fest to talk to Taste of Country about his new music and his lovely new bride, Rose Falcon.
Over a dozen people in Arkansas, Oklahoma and Iowa were killed after a wave of storms and tornadoes tore through south-central United States. Many of the deaths were in Faulkner County, Ark., as a powerful twister flipped cars and tore through houses. Justin Moore — a native of Poyen, Ark., about one hour south — was one of a number of country stars to offer prayers on Sunday night and Monday.
A couple of months ago Glenn and I were at the Harford Fair where Rodney Atkins performed and before we went on stage to introduce Rodney, we spotted his bride-to-be, Rose Falcon standing in the back watching Rodney.
