In 2017, Garth Brooks said to Rolling Stone: “Think about it: when is there ever, in any format, an artist that has come on the scene that has turned a format 180 degrees from where it’s heading, back and made it bigger than it ever was? That’s impossible. I’ve only known it to happen once ever, and Travis would be the name that I’d stick on it.”
Today, Randy Travis has released his first single since a stroke took his voice in 2013. “Fool’s Love Affair” is a never-before-heard song and Randy needs your help. Today will marks the 35th Anniversary of the release of Randy’s first single release, “On The Other Hand”, which marked a new era for country music and shaped the genre in the years to come.
Randy’s team are asking the country music industry to come together to THANK Randy for his impact on the genre – please play the song throughout the day where-ever you can and talk about Randy Travis and the impact he’s had.
Randy Travis was the voice that made me fall in love with country music many years ago. I was lucky enough to hear this new track a few weeks ago and I can’t tell you how happy I am that Randy is back.
