Interview with Trace Adkins, Country Music Superstar

If you are a country music fan, than you without a doubt know who Trace Adkins is. I have always been a fan of Trace Adkins, therefore when I found out I had the opportunity to interview Trace Adkins I was thrilled. Trace had his debut in 1996 and has since gone on to make an amazing mark in the country music genre.

Between 1996 and 2008, Trace has had more than twenty singles on the Billboard country music charts. Trace has recorded nine albums, two of which are greatest hits albums. All but two of Trace's albums have been certified gold or higher.

Some of Trace Adkins more popular songs are, Every Light in the House, (This ain't) No Thinking Thing, Arlington, Honky Tonk Badonkadonk, and Swing among many others. Trace has been very busy and has more coming his way. He recently released "American Man, Greatest Hits Volume II", wrote a book and is on Celebrity Apprentice, and his 2008 tour starts January 24^th. Here is my interview with country music superstar, Trace Adkins.

December 4^th you released another CD, "American Man, Greatest Hits Volume II", "You're Gonna Miss This," is one of three new songs included on the album. It is already another Top 30 hit, how does it feel knowing you are still making hits, in the fickle music world that the fans still love?

Trace - Well, that's great, you just never know. You hope for the best and prepare yourself for the worst.

Which song on the album is your favorite?

Trace - Oh my goodness that would be hard, I try not to pick favorites. It's like picking a favorite kid, I can't do that.

January 24th you start the 2008 Trace Adkins American Man Tour, who are going to be some of the acts with you on the tour?

Trace - Jason Michael Carroll, Kellie Pickler, Bucky Covington, Bill Engvall and Luke Bryan, he's one of my label mates.

Celebrity Apprentice is airing now. It was prerecorded and you are on the show, how was this experience and what made you decide to do the show?

Trace - Well I only did the show to raise awareness for this charity that I'm involved with. I had no other reason do it. My careers fine, I didn't need to do that.

How was the experience?
