The 2000’s saw a spike in the number of country fans across America, but many of country fan’s favorite songs came from the ‘90’s. The 1990’s produced some of the greatest countries songs that are still being played, sung and hummed today.
Country music sensations – many of whom are still big names in country today – catapulted onto the scene in the ‘90’s. Before we ever heard Rascal Flatts or Jason Aldean; before Blake Shelton and Luke Bryan waltzed onto the scene; before Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood were the queens of country, the ‘90’s gave us the start of Toby Keith, Tim McGraw, and Kenny Chesney, while Garth Brooks, George Strait and Alan Jackson repeatedly put out number one hits.
The nineties were good to us, country fans.
