Could Trace Adkins be ready to call it a career? Speaking to "ET" at the premiere of "I Can Only Imagine 2," in which he stars, he hinted that he may be looking at retirement. "I just can’t believe I’m still around, and maybe somewhat relevant, you know, still. I’m just proud to be here and glad that I have fans who have stuck with me all these decades. And I’m going to give them another year, you know." Along with his acting, Trace is embarking on his 30th anniversary tour. He was asked if he had another thirty years in him, to which Adkins answered, "I don’t have another 30 in me. I do not, no. No, I’m going give them this year. I’m going to tour hard this year, but then I can’t promise you anything after that." See Trace's red carpet interview below...
He's done rock and pop. He's done hip hop and r&b. Of course, the longest stretch of his career has been in the country field. But big band? Darius Rucker will be putting on a big band show in his hometown of Charleston, South Carolina, with the proceeds going to charity. The Darius Rucker Big Band Gala at the Gaillard Center in Charleston is a one-night event with local charitable causes benefiting. "These big band shows are some of my favorite nights as it’s the only time I get to perform so many of the standards we all grew up listening to with the backing of such an incredible orchestra," said the singer. "It’s all to benefit incredible non-profit work locally.” Those local charities are the CMA Foundation’s music education initiatives for Charleston County Schools and the Carolyn G. Rucker Nursing Scholarship at MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital. The event takes place April 7th. Tickets go on sale today at 10AM local time, with price points ranging from $50 to $250.
