Before performing for fields, Sam Hunt played on some pretty big ones. Hunt was originally pursuing a professional football career after being successful at the sport in high school and college. Prior to starting his solo singing career, Hunt wrote songs for Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban, and even Reba McEntire. His debut album Montevallo, with songs like “Leave the Night On,” “Take Your Time,” and “Make You Miss Me,” has been recognized for breaking the bounds of traditional country music by mixing elements of R&B, pop, and rap. He has broken records on the singles charts and through radio airplay. His latest single “Body Like a Back Road” has spent 30 weeks on the charts.
