Country music has changed since the ’90s when Mark Chesnutt was releasing hits like “Bubba Shot the Jukebox,” “Gonna Get a Life,” and “Going Through the Big D,” but Mark Chesnutt hasn’t. With the release of his first new studio album in years, “Tradition Lives,” Nash Country Daily sat down with Mark to talk about the new album, his musical heroes and country music’s evolving ways.
“Country music has always changed, it’s evolved it’s never going to stop,” Mark tells Nash Country Daily. “It’s always going to keep moving. But the basics of country music are still the same. It’s just that some people are still doing that and some people ain’t. It just so happens that this is the type of music I do best and it’s the type of music I love. It will always change.”
