Led off by the Jeffrey Steele / Steve Robson-penned smash, "What Hurts The Most," Me and My Gang finds the trio yet again reaching new heights. "Working with Dan Huff (producer) brought us to a new level," says LeVox. "Collectively we feel this is the strongest album we've done to date," says Rooney. "Lyrically, melodically and emotionally this record took us to another place. We are excited to bring this new music to the fans."
This bonus edition features Flatts' smash hit from the Cars> soundtrack "Life is A Highway."
By any measure, Rascal Flatts is in elite territory. In 2005, the group earned its third consecutive ACM and CMA Vocal Group of the Year awards, and added Billboard and R&R Artist of the Year trophies as well. The trio also picked up its first three Grammy nominations, and their "Bless The Broken Road" received the Grammy for Country Song of the Year. Rascal Flatts was the most played artist on country radio in 2005, spending ten weeks at #1 on the radio singles charts.
As they have grown musically, they have continued to reach personal milestones. Gary is married, with two daughters, Brittany, 6, and Brooklyn, 2. Jay married a former Miss Tennessee in 2004, and Joe Don has wedding plans this year. Their growth as people is reflected in the ever-increasing depth of their music, and they are enjoying both the effort and the rewards.
