Darius Rucker is following up his chart-topping hit “Beers And Sunshine” with a song called “My Masterpiece,” set to head to Country radio next week. He co-wrote the song for his upcoming studio album, due out later this year.
Darius said, “One of the most common questions I got asked last year was if I had picked up a new hobby during quarantine. I always answered that I was trying to learn piano, and someone asked if I was any good yet. (Songwriter) J.T. Harding heard my response in that interview – ‘I can’t play piano like Ray Charles‘ – and knew we had to write a song around that line.”
He was recognized as Southern Living Magazine's “Southerner of the Year” in the annual “South’s Best” issue, on stands Friday (March 19th).
