Get Real with Caroline Hobby

Rodney Atkins, a country music legend with six #1 hits, eight top-5 singles, and over 4 billion streams, has been a defining voice for three decades. Known for anthems like “Watching You,” “Take A Back Road,” “Going Through Hell,” and “Farmer’s Daughter,” his music is a reflection of his deep values—family, faith, and country living. He’s back with a new anthem “True South,” defining even more what he stands for and his strong country roots.

Adopted as an infant, Atkins has embraced the power of unconditional love, channeling his devotion to his sons in songs like “He’s Mine.” His journey of self-discovery has shaped both his music and his identity. Since 1996, he’s been with Curb Records, staying true to his rural roots in Cumberland Gap while evolving with the times.

With a strong social media presence and a passion for storytelling, Atkins remains a voice for America’s heartland. Whether through his music, his role as a father, or life on the farm, he continues to celebrate the simple, profound truths of family, faith, and love.
