In April of this year, Rascal Flatts placed their fourth consecutive studio album atop the Top 200 chart, with the release of Unstoppable with sales of 351,000 albums. It also became the biggest country release of 2009 and the best in country first-week sales since November 2008. Since they launched their career in 2000, they have sold nearly 20 million albums, scored 10 #1 singles and 18 top 10 hits and are the reigning AMA, CMT, PCA, ACM and CMA Vocal Group of The Year. The band has become well known for their touring savvy with energetic performances, high-tech production and in-concert interactive fan participation. Their last tour, the "Bob That Head Tour," played before 1.2 million fans in 64 cities during the 10-month run.
Rascal Flatts’ American Living Unstoppable Tour, sponsored by JCPenney, will promote American Living, the retailer's affordable, all-American lifestyle brand developed exclusively for the JCPenney customer by Polo Ralph Lauren's Global Brand Concepts.
Darius Rucker, perhaps best known as the voice of Hootie & the Blowfish, the Grammy-winning group whose album Cracked Rear View sold more than 16 million copies, has had millions of fans happily follow the singer/songwriter in his natural evolution to country music. Rucker’s first country album, Learn To Live, debuted at #1 on the Billboard charts – following a multi-week #1 debut country single. The New York Times claimed the album as "one of the year’s most vibrant country albums," and Variety declared that "country music has a new major star, and the genre may never be the same."
