Joe Nichols

Congrats are in order for Joe Nichols and his lovely wife, Heather. The couple is expecting their second baby together, news that the singer happily revealed on social media.

Being on the road a lot can take its toll on country stars, especially when they have to leave a family behind. Joe Nichols makes it a point to take his family along for the ride whenever it's possible, because he knows it's not always easy for them.

Country Jam 2014 in Grand Junction, Colo. just got a whole lot bigger. Brantley Gilbert has just been announced as a performer for this four-day festival, one of the biggest and longest-running in the country.

'Crickets' is a fine way to describe Joe Nichols' new album. The singer aims for a relax-on-the-riverbank vibe with many of the mid-tempo cuts on this project. The album begins and ends with crickets ( literally), and in between it offers a fairly level ride.

The country music community has been grieving since George Jones died in April. To help soften the blow -- and perhaps to cope with his feelings -- Randy Travis dedicated a new song called 'Tonight I'm Playing Possum' to a man many call the greatest country singer of all time. Joe Nichols joins Travis on this powerful duet.

Joe Nichols was handpicked by Randy Travis to record the new George Jones tribute 'Tonight I'm Playing Possum.' Before his set at the 2013 Taste of Country Music Festival, the 'Sunny and 75' singer told ToC that the two only recently developed a relationship, and Travis likely picked him because he knew he'd appreciate the opportunity.

Sir Mix-a-Lot didn't have traditional country singer Joe Nichols in mind when he recorded 'Baby Got Back,' but the honey smooth-voiced singer gave the song new life at the 2013 Taste of Country Music Festival on Saturday night (June 15). In addition to hits like 'The Impossible' and 'Brokenheartsville,' Nichols mixed in Sir Mix and 'Runnin' Down a Dream' by Tom Petty.

With Joe Nichols' latest single, 'Sunny & 75,' gaining popularity, he's gearing up to hit the road for the next few months to bring his music to fans all over the country. In a new behind-the-scenes interview, he opens up about the new single, his devoted fans and life on the road.

First off, I would like to say I dream of Sunny and 75 in Amarillo, but around here its more like Sunny and 95. Joe Nichol's new single 'Sunny and 75' will definitely be a summer song for 2013, I think his voice compliments the rhythm and the guitar in the song which makes for a perfect sounding summer smash...

Las Vegas is going to be the place to be in early April, thanks to several country music performances leading up to the ACM Awards on Sunday April 7. The ACM Fremont Street Experience Festival will begin at 9 PM on April 5 and 6 in downtown Vegas with must-see country stars Gary Allan and Jake Owen headlining the event.

It looks as though Joe Nichols is suddenly without a label home. The singer took to his official Twitter account on Sunday to share that he and Show Dog-Universal Music have parted ways in what seems to be a less-than-amicable split.

Every year, Countryfest — hosted by radio station WGNA in Albany, N.Y. — is one of the best ways to catch live music from your favorite country stars. As expected, the 2012 festival is sure to be just as much of a hit, with big names like Eric Church, Joe Nichols and Thompson Square slated to perform.
