Thomas Rhett Sings Masters Tradition

0:00On March 23rd, the master's tournament at Augusta National Golf Club kicks off its first round on April 9th, but a fun tradition leads the way each year. Since 2020, ESPN has featured a fresh take on the classic song Georgia on my mind ahead of the event. This year, country star Thomas Rhett delivers a soulful new version released today on March 23rd. The lineup has included big names like India Ari, Chloe X Halley, Charles Kelly, Leon Bridges, Kane Brown, and last year's Noah Cajun. Rhett brings his own spin, recording with his band and producer Julie and Bonetta for that timeless feel. Originally from Baudosta, Georgia, and now based in Nashville, Rhett has deep ties to the state. The song instantly brings to mind Spanish Moss, Magnolia Lane, and Aiman Corner at the course. It's a huge fan of the masters, even calling out the Pimento Cheese Sandwich as his must-have treat. Rhett sees this as a career pinnacle, aiming to honor the song's legacy without overdoing it.

With the tournament approaching, Rhett gears up for a busy tour schedule, including opening for Morgan Wallen, teaming with Luke Combs and London, and co-headlining shows with Nauhor in this summer. It all builds the hype for April and Augusta. Music News, powered by AI. This is Music News Today.
