Few can compare to Arkansas native Joe Nichols. Hitting the music scene in 1999, Nichols’ has been a staple in both country radio (earning five #1 singles) and country festivals, including a stop last year at NYC’s inaugural FarmBorough Festival. Here’s five more reasons why we love our #MCM!
1. Those eyes. Those chocolately-brown windows to the soul captivate all who look at them.
2. Versatility. From making your heart-wrench from a life-spanning romance in “I’ll Wait for You” to humor in “What’s A Guy Got To Do,” Nichols has become a key player in country radio.
3. Simply put, he’s real. Nichols has endured his own demons – from alcoholism to a tumultuous yet rekindled relationship with his father, Nichols has put himself out there to the world unapologetically.
4. Sweeping curls. Long or short, Nichols is one of the few mean in existence that can pull off those full luxurious locks.
5. His command of the stage. Whether he’s playing fun sing-along songs like “Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off,” or sweet tunes like “Gimme That Girl” or even his country take on Sir Mix-A-Lot’s classic “Baby Got Back,” Nichols has a control on stage that grasps his audience’s attention from the first guitar lick.
