Darius Rucker is a new name to country music, but a veteran name in the music industry. The South Carolina native spent two decades as lead singer of "Hootie and the Blowfish" as they won two Grammy awards and turned out 16 chart-topping singles.
The group went on hiatus in 2008, but that same year, Rucker launched a solo country music project that returned him to his Southern roots. Christian Hoard, senior editor of Rolling Stone magazine, said, "It makes perfect sense that Rucker became a country artist, because he was all about communicating to a wide group of people while keeping it simple. And there's something just down home and friendly about the way he wrote songs for Hootie."
