Trace Adkins

Trace Adkins has just launched his Christmas tour, and he stopped by Taste of Country Nights to talk about the uniquely intimate concert experience.

Trace Adkins is ready to resume touring again! The country singer took a break from the road earlier this year following the loss of his dad, a stint in rehab and a divorce announcement. On June 5, he'll emerge from his hiatus with a show in Sayreville, N.J.

Rhonda and Trace Adkins have finally spoken out about their divorce, releasing a public statement on Thursday (May 27).

Trace Adkins' wife Rhonda has filed for divorce.

Artists who write a great personal song may be hesitant to record it for months or years. Taste of Country writer Billy Dukes considers three powerful songs and three artists who dealt with the personal tragedies that inspired them in very different ways. 

Trace Adkins has reportedly stepped away from treatment in a Florida rehabilitation facility to be with his ailing father, Aaron. Sources say he needed to be at his dad’s side, but it’s not clear if the illness is life-threatening.

Songwriting may be part of Trace Adkins' alcohol rehabilitation, as he stepped away from treatment to buy a new guitar over the weekend.

Country Cruising has partnered with Trace Adkins and his Nashville team to allow the January cruise attendees see all the performances that they unfortunately missed on this month's ship.

Neal McCoy expressed his sympathies for Trace Adkins and praised the rest of the Country Cruising lineup after the ship’s headliner left for rehab last week.

Earlier this week, Trace Adkins announced a second stint in an alcohol rehabilitation facility. He fell off the wagon during a cruise he was set to headline. It was his first taste of alcohol in over a decade -- since his last stay in rehab in 2002. While the singer seems to be taking full ownership of what happened on that boat, the incident shines a light on something not talked about very often
