Jason Aldean – Fly Over States
Biography
There’s a lot about the singer that’s become familiar during his five years as a country hitmaker, after all, he has spent more weeks at #1 on the radio charts than any other country artist in the last 12 months. But none of what he does comes out quite like anyone else. The blues-tinged licks at the end of his phrases—there’s a ring of familiarity about them, but you can’t really link them to another artist. The smoky guitar riffs that have become a signature—they’re built on sounds that have come before, but they don’t really belong to anyone else in the country genre, either. The small-town themes that pervade many of his songs—that’s all been done before, but not quite with the unwavering honesty that Aldean applies to the subject.
Since his 2005 debut with the scorching “Hicktown,” the singer has set himself apart from the pack as a truly unique artist. He addresses his Georgia-born brand of country music with a singular vision, and he intends to keep it that way.
“The whole thing about being creative is coming up with new things,” he says matter-of-factly in a converted barn on his Nashville-area farm. “What makes you different and more creative than the other guys is taking something to an extreme and making it better without ripping anybody else off. I think that’s the key. The great ones figure it out and are constantly evolving, and that’s what makes ‘em great.”

If this guy is country then Jonas Brothers is death metal. Johnny Cash was country - guy with acoustic guitar singing/telling stories. Now "country" is full of pretentious idiots, basically playing pop-rock about tractors and shit, with a violin on background.

Jason Aldean is pretty much Taylor Swift with a penis. They're both pretty much pop princesses.

@Maaxxoor I'm happy you say this. Without her, I'd never ever started listening to country music!

I very like 1994, I'm glad he choose it as the third single from NIGHT TRAIN. The title track should be single too, in future!

@AngeloSwift13 even though I don't like/listen to Taylor Swift that much I also have to say she gave country music a new modern different twist.

His song THE ONLY WAY I KNOW (with Luke Bryan and Eric Church) R-O-C-K-S!! OH MY GOD, I love that, and the whole album. I'll always thank Taylor Swift to have introduced me to country music **
