Tim McGraw delivers country hits at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena

There are country music superstars and then there's Tim McGraw.

A dozen years ago, the artist with ten chart-topping country albums toured stadiums across America with Kenny Chesney. On Thursday evening, a euphoric Bridgestone Arena was blistered with the impact of a show presented at a size and sound capable of working six blocks away across the Cumberland River at Nissan Stadium.

Accompanying the power chords of his 2013-released top-10 single "Truck Yeah" with stentorian drum kicks would be one thing. But then, there's McGraw's silhouette surrounded by a glowing red screen on a panoramic, 105-foot wide by 26-foot tall LED screen and a laser show blinding enough to rival Kane Brown, Lil Wayne, Bon Jovi, or Tiesto at their touring heights.

Start the day smarter. Get all the news you need in your inbox each morning.

The cinema and drama aren't presented for a song about hearing Lil Wayne's "6 Foot 7 Foot" booming through a dark blue Ford F-150's subwoofers before a weekend dominated by "Friday night football, Saturday last call, Sunday hallelujah."

Yes, country music is most assuredly about the song. However, very few artists have parlayed their song styling into a quarter century of work as actors in films grossing over a half-billion dollars at the box office.

Thus, when McGraw performs songs like "Just To See You Smile," "Where The Green Grass Grows" and "Standing Room Only" -- the 2023 hit that titles his most recent album and current concert tour -- an impressive transference occurs.

McGraw connects, brings out an impressive special guest

Imagine that "Friday Night Lights"' Charles Billingsley and "1883"'s James Dillard Dutton are paired with Faith Hill's husband and a father of three, plus a country music crooner who has played well over 1,000 concerts in 25 years and had 90 percent of his hits in the top 10 of the genre's Billboard charts.

The songs connect differently.

Regardless of genre, great songs test an artist's ability to believe, not just the lyrics themselves. Instead, when delivering those songs' hooks and choruses, it's in metaphorically attaching them to your heartstrings and knowing they'll soar that makes them achieve extraordinary renown.

Concerning this notion, McGraw, though turning 57 in less than a week, is still ever the athlete.

At moments like performing his 1995 classic, "I Like It, I Love It," he approached the precision required to convey maximum passion through song as if he were his father, Tug McGraw, one pitch away from recording the final out of the 1980 World Series against the Kansas City Royals.

Mixing sports metaphors, "I Like It, I Love It" is so catchy that, in Nashville, it has served as the song played when the National Hockey League's Nashville Predators score at home in the same Bridgestone Arena in which he was performing.

Of course, because it's NHL playoff season and the Predators are in the hunt, on Thursday evening, McGraw brought out the Stanley Cup and offered his well wishes to the home team in their current series against the Vancouver Canucks.

McGraw showcases a mastery of his craft

At that moment, you realize that he will probably play a different song every four minutes and 20 songs in roughly 95 minutes onstage overall. In 25 percent less time, he's accomplished 75 percent more than most of his contemporaries as chart-topping country stars of the past three decades.

Dig in deep and realize that there's something to the notion that Tim McGraw isn't just singing country music. Instead, he's created a country-to-mainstream monoculture unto himself. There's a Western cowboy, a Southern soul crooner and a humble, kind husband and father present.

All three of these archetypes are the main characters in life as a play that has unfolded with as much perfect sculpting as many in attendance would believe McGraw still applies to maintaining his physique.

At a point early in the concert, McGraw performs a snippet of his 20-year-old country-to-hip-hop-to-pop crossover hit Nelly duet "Over and Over" that blends seamlessly into his mid-tempo 2007 track "Shotgun Rider."

A five-minute moment has spanned St. Louis hip-hop to countrified Los Angeles-inspired rock.

Almost 20,000 people—many of whom, if asked, aren't fans of any other rappers or, on the other side, probably don't consider The Eagles a country band—never stopped bobbing their heads and waving their hands in appreciation.

Dig even deeper and the father and husband appear when realizing that his openers were Texas-born country artist Abby Anderson and Grammy-winning country star Carly Pearce or that he performed soulful songs "One Bad Habit" and "Watch The Wind Blow By" to honor his wife, Faith Hill, plus playing the music video for his 2013 Taylor Swift and Keith Urban collaboration "Highway Don't Care" as a way to honor Swift's burgeoning mega-stardom.

McGraw, empathetically aware of the power of sharing his stage with prospective female role models and stars, impressively softens his towering humanity before the night's most stunning moment: the encore.

A stunning encore

Instead of the house lights coming on or the set's well-articulated lighting schemes being eschewed for spotlights, an overture was heard, and a well-lit, panoramic LED screen introduction highlighting key McGraw scenes from "1883" highlighted his performance of 2001's "The Cowboy In Me."

The edges blurred between the actor and the man at that point.

"Humble and Kind" was followed by an acapella encore, with the crowd heartily singing along, if only because the entire building knew that 2004's "Live Like You Were Dying"—a song that inarguably re-set the expectation of earnest songwriting and raw emotions and involving a solo performance by McGraw that would be worth the cost of the ticket alone—was next.

Impressively, McGraw still performs the Single of the Year and Song of the Year at the 2004 Country Music Association Awards and the 2004 Academy of Country Music Awards, as well as the 2004 Grammy winner for Best Country Song as if he's having a conversation about how his father's cancer journey impacted him while leaving enough space for your own life and stories to own emotional real estate in the song.

As the evening ended, like again, the athlete that appeared in various formats throughout the evening, McGraw pumped his fist and pounded his chest to symbolize that not just he had successfully performed another concert. Instead, it was as if we, together, as a team, had victoried for country music, America, the community we had created for two hours and hopefully in gaining the perspective, via his concert, to continue to struggle and succeed at living our most fulfilled lives.

Samuel Timothy McGraw, frequently known under his stage name Tim McGraw (born 1 May 1967) is an American Country Singer and actor, often seen donning his trademark cowboy hat, originally from Delhi, Louisiana.

McGraw grew up in a small community, the only child of a waitress mother and successful baseball player father, Frank Edwin “Tug” McGraw, who was often travelling the USA whilst playing for various teams. He was an avid sports player growing up, and attended the University of Mississippi through a baseball scholarship, before dropping out to pursue his musical career.

After handing out demos trying to catch a break in the early 90’s, McGraw's father happened to be playing one of his son's songs in the car whilst his friend, a record executive at Curb Records was sat in the passenger seat. The label quickly snapped him up but his first album was a commercial failure, not charting in the top 40.

However in 1994, McGraw recorded and released his second album, "Not a Moment Too Soon", which was a smash hit, reaching the top of the country charts. The following year, McGraw demonstrated he had serious chops as a country singer when his third album “All I Want” sold over 2 million copies and hit the top of the charts again.

In 1996 McGraw married fellow country star Faith Hill, and went on to release ten more successful albums within 18 years, as well as an unlikely collaborative chart smash hit with rap superstar Nelly, “Over and Over”. In 2006 McGraw went on a 55 city tour with his wife called “Soul2Soul II Tour”, which was a massive triumph, generating revenue of almost $89M, making it the most profitable country tour of all time.

Later on in his career, McGraw has also enjoyed a successful stint in the acting business, starring in the award winning sports drama “The Blind Side” and action thriller “The Legend” alongside Jamie Foxx.

The country star has also become known for his charity work, in 2010, McGraw and his wife put on a benefit concert called “Nashville Rising” to aid flood victims in the south, they also worked as aid transporters during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

Live reviews

I have been a fan of Hunter Hayes for a few years now and I have been really wanting to see him perform. I finally got that chance a few days ago, and it was even more amazing than I could have imagined. From the beginning, Hunter brought a huge amount of energy to the stage and all of his fans could feel it throughout the entire concert. The majority of his songs came from Encore, which debuted in 2011, but he also played a few songs from his newest album, Storyline. During each song he performed, he showed off his many talents. Whether he was playing an incredible guitar solo, changing up different parts of the songs, or playing drums, he kept the audience completely entertained. He even took a selfie with his fans during a break in his performance.

Whenever Hunter spoke to the crowd, it was easy to see how genuine he truly is. He kept thanking his fans and telling the audience about various things he has gone through in his life, and it made us appreciate him even more as a person and an artist. The most memorable part of the concert was when "Light Me Up" began. A few members of his crew threw out huge light-up balls for the crowd to bounce back and forth during the last couple of songs. It definitely added to the fun! Fans of Hunter Hayes should definitely see him live in concert when they get the chance! You will not be disappointed!

Report as inappropriate

One of America's most successful country stars, Tim McGraw has a huge following for his live show on the back of his massive commercial successes. Having conveniently married another country star Faith Hill, Tim always has a dazzling duet to surprise and delight fans with.

Yet as a solo artist, he confidently commands the stage with guitar in hand and smile on face for the likes of 'One Of Those Nights' and 'Southern Girl'. An incredibly humble star also, the singer continuously interacts with his audience no matter how big or small the venue and thanks them for their ongoing support.

He has some obvious hits such as 'Real Good Man' and 'Just To See You Smile' which may gain the biggest cheers from the crowd, yet Tim attacks each song with the same amount of positive enthusiasm. Although he shares the audiences love for set closer 'Live Like You Were Dying' as a mass singalong brings an enjoyable show to a close.

Barclays Center, Brooklyn, NY, Friday, October 27, 2017->

It was a fantastic show! The best part was Tim and Faith's chemistry onstage, he was flirting with her & kissing her and she, after 21 years of marriage he told us, had shy reactions like a young schoolgirl with a first boyfriend. They were so cute together. They are like a couple from Harlequin romance novels! And both were powerhouses when it came to their singing! Margot Price opened the show and she was also wonderful! They told the audience this was the last show of this Soul 2 Soul tour, but I hope they come back to NYC on their next tour so I can see them again if only for the beautiful staging, sound, lighting, and special effects produced by their crew, and their band was great providing fantastic backup singing and music for Tim and Faith!

Tim McGraw was awesome to look at but vocally, leaves so much to be desired. He didn't talk very much and it was all about the music but the music left a lot to be desired, vocally and instrument wise. I went to see him because even though he doesn't impress me vocally, he has some awesome songs, especially on his latest album. Unfortunately, he only sang three of those and he didn't do my favorite, I Want You Back. He didn't do any of my other favorites either (Friend of a Friend, the number song and a couple others) and he only performed for an hour and twenty minutes. He is definitely not someone that I would see again but if nothing else, he was a sight for sore eyes and I got some great pics.

Absolutely Great. The crowd was loving him. He involves the fans and lets them know they matter. He had a little boy on stage when he did an acoustic and gave him his guitar, this was awesome. There were 2 little girls in front of us with their father, they knew the words to his songs and were having a blast. He is just grateful for the fans and you know that when you go to his concert. He performed old hits as well as new. I just loved it I have seen him 7 times and will see him again when he is in Charlotte.

The Soul 2 Soul Concert with Tim & Faith was the most awesome experience I have ever had in my life. The singing was superb and he is absolutely gorgeous. The love shown between Tim & Faith is so fantastic. I think every man should look at their wife the way he looks at Faith. I wish I could go to another concert of Tim's in the near future. I will be watching for any upcoming dates. I had a wonderful time!

It was fantastic! Both are great performers. Faith Hill has amazing energy and Tim Mcgraw is very respectful on stage. They seem to have a lot of fun on stage and their band and singers seemed to have as much fun. It's nice when the artists recognize them during their show. Let's not forget their voices. No surprise they are on top. Great talent!!!

It's was a awesome and amazing concert show although I had to leave but I did stayed at half of the show but like I said Tim McGraw concert show was good and awesome and amazing and they had people loving them and their band and their concert show was awesome and amazing and wow Tim can sang wow it just an awesome show. Annette

One of the WORST-sounding concerts that I have ever experienced. We had great floor seats but the drums and bass guitar were so loud that no one in my group could understand any of the words from Tim or Faith. 90% of the concert just sounded like a lot of loud white noise.

Too bad that the artist probably have no idea.

Hello fans thanks for purchasing my tickets and supporting me... I really appreciate you all, for more questions and inquiries add me up on [email protected] (fans only)... You may experience some delays replying you, but i will surly reply you all... THANKS, I LOVE YOU ALL...

Tim McGraw draws country music fans to Pittsburgh for 'Standing Room Only' tour

Pittsburgh’s country music fans were out in full force Saturday night at PPG Paints Arena — all for 56-year-old singer Tim McGraw’s “Standing Room Only” tour.

Sporting a V-neck maroon T-shirt and skinny jeans, McGraw entered from under the stage following a sequence of silhouettes that were projected on the large screen, much to the audience’s anticipation.

The country singer opened with his bold hit “Truck Yeah,” which transitioned into “Southern Voice” and “All I Want Is a Life,” which had a retro, red vibe.

During the second tune, McGraw played guitar, and a bright, colorful mountain scene with a truck, flowers and trees was projected on the backdrop.

McGraw then performed a cover of Elton John’s “Tiny Dancer,” which featured theater imagery with a chandelier in the background. The rendition included heavy drums, guitar and bass, and it had country undertones.

After the song, he paused to introduce himself.

“How you doing? My name’s Tim,” he said — in a Southern accent, of course.

McGraw explained that he usually doesn’t talk much during his concerts. He promised the audience that the more they drank, the better his music would sound, which earned some laughs from the crowd.

Arguably one of the best Tim McGraw songs was performed next: “Just to See You Smile.” He went around and reached down to the fans standing in the front row to touch their hands during this one.

He then played “Over and Over,” which had a farmhouse in the background, and “Shotgun Rider,” which had a cityscape with fast-paced traffic in the background.

One of McGraw’s brand-new tunes, “One Bad Habit,” was next up. It’s from his EP titled “Poet’s Resumé,” which was released last November. The crowd cheered for this one, as it played images of him and his wife, Faith Hill, performing together and just being generally cute together.

He played “Watch the Wind Blow By,” and the slow groove had a few couples in the crowd dancing together or putting their arms around each other.

The audience got excited for “Something Like That,” and there was an artsy background with pastel paint splotches and a watercolor scene for “Where the Green Grass Grows.”

McGraw played the title song from his album next, “Standing Room Only,” which had a blue and galaxy-themed background. He said he was going to “get a little pretty” during that one.

The audience was back on its feet for “Red Ragtop.”

“What the hell’s going on?” McGraw asked after the number. “If this was California, these lights would be really beautiful.”

“Highway Don’t Care” was definitely a fan favorite of the night, as it’s a collaboration with superstar Taylor Swift and singer Keith Urban. The tune had the music video projected in the background, which is very black and white, and the background also depicted cracked glass.

People sang along to Swift’s lyrics in the duet, and there was a sick guitar solo as well.

“Give it up for Miss Swift,” McGraw said at the end to loud cheers.

Perhaps one of the most energetic numbers of the night was “I Like It, I Love It” — as people were literally screaming. The upbeat number had county fair imagery with fireworks, and the crowd was on its feet dancing.

McGraw closed out his main set with “Felt Good on My Lips” and “Real Good Man.”

Both Abby Anderson and Carly Pearce opened for McGraw, offering an energetic beginning to the concert.

For his encore, McGraw sang three very emotional tunes: “The Cowboy in Me,” “Humble and Kind” and “Live Like You Were Dying.”

Phone lights were turned on, and the audience swayed to “Humble and Kind.”

“Thank you so much for that song,” McGraw said after that tune.

The final number had McGraw’s fans singing along, and he ended the concert with a curtsy.

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill's Relationship Timeline

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill wed in 1996 and share three daughters

Contributor, PEOPLE

Country music superstars Tim McGraw and Faith Hill have music to thank for their decades-long love story.

The "Don't Take the Girl" singer and Hill met for the first time in 1994 at a gig in Nashville. At the time, they were both seeing other people but as fate would have it, McGraw and Hill's paths crossed again two years later and the rest is history.

Hill served as McGraw's opening act on his 1996 Spontaneous Combustion tour and the pair wed later that year. The country artists now share three daughters.

Here's a look at Tim McGraw and Faith Hill's relationship, from their first meeting to starting a family.

1994: Tim McGraw and Faith Hill meet for the first time

The couple really connected during McGraw's Spontaneous Combustion tour in 1996.

"We were young and silly and goo-goo-eyed in love," McGraw later told PEOPLE of their initial spark. The pair started dating after they each ended their relationships with their respective partners.

Hill later defended how she and McGraw got their start , telling PEOPLE, "If someone is going to judge my character because I was engaged to somebody and then I left him for somebody else — 'Oh, OK, now she's a slut and a bad person' — I can't control that. But I wasn't about to let Tim slip through my hands."

June 26, 1996: Tim McGraw proposes to Faith Hill on stage

The musician popped the question while on tour. He shared the romantic details of the proposal years later in an October 2015 video.

"We were in the dressing room, here, June 26, 1996, and it was raining and stuff and we'd been on tour for a while together, and I joked around with her about getting married. And so I looked at her, grabbed her by the hands, and dropped forward [on my knees] onstage," he recalled. "She said, 'We're at a country music festival in a trailer house, and you're asking me to marry you?' And I said, 'Yeah.' So I went onstage … When I came back offstage, [I saw] a Sharpie with lipstick kisses all over it, saying, 'Yes! I'm gonna be your wife.' "

In his Grit & Grace: Train the Mind, Train the Body, Own Your Life , McGraw once again discussed his sobriety journey and the role his wife played in it. The country star revealed that Hill gave him an ultimatum before he became sober.

"When things happen and you succeed beyond your wildest dreams and you're playing all these great shows and the parties are going on," he told Hoda Kotb on the Today show. "Then you're married and you have kids. And all of a sudden your wife looks at you and says, 'You know, you're getting a little overboard and you need to make some decisions.' It makes a big impact on you."

August 9, 2020: Tim McGraw shares a candid photo of Faith Hill

In August 2020, McGraw posted a candid photo of Hill on Instagram . In the photo, she wore her pink hair in a braid, sitting on a patio enjoying some nice weather.

August 25, 2021: Tim McGraw credits Faith Hill for his wake-up call

Speaking with Esquire about his decision to get sober in 2008, McGraw revealed that he was "getting out of [bed] and going to the liquor cabinet and taking a big shot at 8:00 in the morning and thinking, 'I have to wake the kids up.' "

He called that his last straw, saying that he immediately went to Hill and told her what was happening.

"I went straight to my wife and said, 'This is where I'm at.' I was scared," he remembered. "She just grabbed me and hugged me and changed my life."

He credited her with helping him stay strong and sober.

"My wife always says, 'You're not scared of anything.' I say, 'Ehhh, one thing. I'm looking at it right now,' " he said. "I didn't know love could feel so good. Was it an emotion? Was it a lifestyle? Was it an imaginary thing? But love is all of those things."

McGraw went on, "Love is being angry. Love is not talking for a day. Love is getting in each other's face. Love is accepting that I'm wrong. Love is a 360-degree thing. It's not linear. They always say you're not supposed to fight in front of your kids. Everybody fights in front of their kids. That's part of the deal."

October 6, 2021: Tim McGraw and Faith Hill celebrate 25 years of marriage

In honor of 25 years of marriage to Hill, McGraw reflected on his proposal and the wedding that followed. He called it "the best day of my life." He also shared some new details, that fans may not have known before.

"25 years later and it's still the best day of my life. Thanks for going on this journey with me. Love you Faith ❤️," he wrote, adding that it took him a "few times" to convince her to accept his proposal.

McGraw continued, "We had dated for a while. I actually asked her to marry me quite a few times and she kept saying no. She said, 'I'm not going to get involved with another country singer, it's just not going to work out.' "

He said he finally decided to get down on a knee during a country music festival, hopeful that Hill would accept.

"They had these trailer houses set up. I'm getting ready to go onstage, and I had this sort of case that had this big mirror in it. She's standing there, and we're talking, and I said, 'Look, let's get married," he remembered. "And she says, 'You're asking me to marry you at a country music festival in a trailer house?' And I said, 'Well, it's pretty apropos if you think about it.' She goes, 'Are you serious?' And I said, 'Well, yeah, I'm serious.' "

He returned to the dressing room to find a message on the mirror from his future wife accepting his proposal.

"And we still have that mirror. And it was the best day of my life, that's for sure," McGraw said.

November 2021: Tim McGraw and Faith Hill make their silver screen debut

While both McGraw and Hill had appeared on-screen before, they next acted alongside each other, until 2021. The couple appeared in 1883 , a prequel to Yellowstone that tells the origin story of the Dutton family. McGraw and Hill play James and Margaret Dutton.

"To see my beautiful wife on horseback, firing guns, and having dirt all over her face, I just sit in awe. She's a strong woman, anyway," McGraw told Entertainment Weekly . "[Creator] Taylor [Sheridan] said early on to me, 'Man, you'll just get on that horse. You're not scared of anything.' I said, 'I'm scared of one thing. She's right over there.' "

December 10, 2021: Tim McGraw and Faith Hill talk about becoming empty nesters

Things changed in a big way for McGraw and Hill after their youngest daughter, Audrey, graduated in 2020. The pair were officially empty nesters and they opened up about the transition to PEOPLE in December 2021.

"You're used to getting up in the morning, taking kids to school, going to softball practices and basketball practices and cheerleader practices and all of a sudden all that's gone when your last one leaves," he told PEOPLE.

He noted that since their daughters left home, their house in Nashville has quieted down significantly. He looked back fondly on their lives together as a family of five.

"I miss the afternoons because Faith would always make sure something was cooking when they would come home from school," he said. "I miss them coming in and smelling what mom's cooking and being excited about having dinner. I miss the energy around. There were times when we had about 15 teenage girls in our house talking about boys and life and everything going on. We're still a really close family; we talk all the time. But it's difficult when your kids leave. All of a sudden they don't need you as much anymore. And I think it's probably more difficult for Mom."

May 1, 2022: Faith Hill surprises Tim McGraw with a birthday serenade

In celebration of McGraw's 55th birthday, Hill arranged for a special backstage moment in honor of the occasion. He shared a video of the whole crew, including his wife, surrounding him with a cake and candles, singing "Happy Birthday." He smiled as he spotted Hill.

On Instagram , Hill shared a video of McGraw dancing to Olivia Rodrigo 's song "good 4 u" in the backseat of a vehicle.

She captioned the post: "This is a rare, very rare look into a side of my husband that only his girls and I get to see. Dance everyday, maybe steal some of Tim's moves. It brings joy, laughter, and the insatiable need for all of us to be present."

May 1, 2023: Faith Hill celebrates Tim McGraw's 56th birthday

August 8, 2023: Tim McGraw reveals the song that makes him think of Faith Hill

During a show in Los Angeles at the Whisky a Go Go, McGraw revealed that the song "Samba Pa Ti" by Santana always makes him think of Hill.

"It's kind of our song," he told the crowd. "My uncle told me one time — my uncle Hank, old hippie who lives in Napa Valley — he played it for me one time years ago on the road. He loved that song too. He said, ‘I'm gonna tell you something.’ He says, ‘Never make love to a woman with this song on unless you intend to marry her.’ And so I didn't until I did. And then I did."

October 6, 2023: Tim McGraw and Faith Hill celebrate 27 years of marriage

In honor of their wedding anniversary, McGraw penned a sweet post on Instagram about his wife of 27 years.

"This is the very first picture ever taken of us , the very first time we ever met back in spring of 1994. I fell for you in an instant!" he captioned the throwback image.
