Colt Ford

It's getting closer, folks! The full 2015 Taste of Country Music Festival lineup is now available, and in addition to headliners Tim McGraw, Keith Urban and Toby Keith, 14 other acts have been revealed!

Growing up, Colt Ford played several sports, but despite a love for 'the game,' music eventually found him, he says. The singer stopped by Taste of Country to chat about music, his childhood and his 'Thanks for Listening' album, which hit in July.

The remixes just keep coming! Brad Paisley is the latest hitmaker to blend one of his popular singles, this time with the help of Colt Ford.

Colt Ford stopped by the Taste of Country New York office this week to play some tunes and answer a few questions. Ford performed music from his new album 'Thanks for Listening,' which dropped earlier this month.

Would Florida Georgia Line be thriving today if Colt Ford had struggled before them? That's a big question -- one that isn't meant to discredit anything Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard have accomplished in the two years since 'Cruise' became the most popular song since 'Happy Birthday.'

Colt Ford’s new album ‘Thanks for Listening’ will drop on July 1, but fans can enjoy ‘The High Life’ now. Chase Rice wrote and collaborated with Ford on the song, and in a music video set for release early next week. Get a sneak peek at the fun in this video preview exclusive to Taste of Country.

The often verbose Colt Ford is tongue-tied when seated next to country legend Wynonna Judd. Ford is obviously a fan, and he considers it quite an accomplishment that he convinced the famous redhead to join him for a cut on his 'Ride Through the Country Revisited' album. Watch behind-the-scenes footage from the recording studio in this ToC exclusive.

John Anderson helps Colt Ford rework 'Waffle House' as the Georgia-born singer's band plays along during this behind-the-scenes clip of the recording of 'Ride Through the Country Revisited.' The 16-track album offers a second take on many of the songs Ford released five years ago. Brantley Gilbert, Ronnie Dunn and Wynonna are three of the other special guests who appear.

Laura Bell Bundy got her start on Broadway, then a few movie rolls before aiming her sights on Nashville. She had success with the song 'Giddy On Up' a few years ago, now she's signed on with one powerful label, Big Machine Records, and has a new song out that screams weekend!! Check out 'Two Step' now from Laura Bell Bundy!

'Drivin' Around Song' is Colt Ford's best chance for a radio hit, something the singer would likely be willing to shave his body hair for. Jason Aldean's chorus is smooth and memorable, and his presence on the track from 'Declaration of Independence' gives Ford superstar credibility.
