A Nashville icon for more than two decades, Trace Adkins has made his mark on the country-music industry. Eleven million albums sold. Time-honored hit singles. Momentous, fiery and always memorable live performances. Grammy nominations. CMT and ACM awards. Even a slew of movie and TV roles have come the Grand Ole Opry member\u2019s way.<\/p>\n

But ask Adkins what\u2019s left to prove in his career, and the small-town Louisiana native says it\u2019s simple: the itch remains. Working with some of Nashville\u2019s most respected songwriters, Adkins continues to find ways to connect with his fans through music while recording what he describes as autobiographical songs throughout his career.<\/p>\n

To create. To collaborate. To continually feel the excitement that comes after whipping up a new song out of thin air and laying it down to tape. It\u2019s what, after all these years, he says he still craves. \u201cIt\u2019s an adrenaline rush and I love it,\u201d says Adkins. The longstanding country icon has yet to lose any of his trademark passion and killer instinct for his craft. The 57-year-old is as fired up as ever to be back on the road this year, taking his music to the fans once again. \u201cI get a kick out of it. I still enjoy the camaraderie, the band of brothers, your crew and your band. I\u2019m an old jock. I like team sports,\u201d he says of a continued passion for touring.<\/p>\n

Ask Adkins where he goes from here, and he\u2019ll say it\u2019s quite simple: keep doing what he knows and loves. Performing. Creating. Inspiring. He adores it. And, he adds, he knows so many of his lifelong fans, and new ones to boot, do too. \u201cI\u2019m gonna go out there and find those people,\u201d he says with a laugh of the coming months. \u201cI\u2019m gonna bring a band and turn it up real loud! And we\u2019re gonna have a good time!\u201d<\/p>\n
