Rascal Flatts released their much-anticipated LIFE IS A HIGHWAY: REFUELED DUETS<\/em> collaboration album earlier this summer, praised as “a bold, celebratory reimagining of the band\u2019s storied back catalogue” (Entertainment Focus<\/strong><\/em>). The project features nine reimagined, beloved Rascal Flatts hits \u2013 including the \u201cimmediate bestseller\u201d (Forbes<\/strong><\/em>) reimagination of \u201cWhat Hurts The Most<\/a>\u201d with Backstreet Boys \u2013 as well as their record-breaking new track, \u201cI Dare You<\/a>\u201d with Jonas Brothers. The trio \u201csensibly allow a string of pop, rock and country vocalists to change the oil, whilst they rest easy on a backseat built on their trusted formula of honeyed vocals and major key chirpiness,\u201d (Holler<\/strong><\/em>) creating all-new arrangements of timeless hits from their acclaimed catalogue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
