Rascal Flatts is a country trio from Nashville, Tennessee, formed in 1999 by Gary LeVox, Jay DeMarcus, and Joe Don Rooney. Their sound pulls from both country and pop, and that crossover quality helped them rack up a long string of hits across the 2000s and into the 2010s. Singles like 'Bless The Broken Road', 'What Hurts the Most', and 'Life Is a Highway' made them one of the best-selling acts in modern country music.
