Darius Rucker’s Wild Ride
Manage episode 420674494 series 2787342
Darius Rucker gained fame in 1994 when David Letterman heard his band, Hootie and the Blowfish, on a local radio station and insisted they play The Late Show later that week. The band’s debut album, cracked rear view, went on to sell over 20 million units worldwide and made them a household name. Despite all that success, Darius was always drawn to the songs and stories of country music, and for the last 16 years that’s been his true calling. Now, he’s got a new memoir called Life’s Too Short, a book that may surprise some of his fans with its honesty and directness about some very tough issues, from estranged family to substance abuse.He also talks with Sid about his relationship with fellow country trailblazer Charlie Pride, his hopes for Black country artists in the wake of Beyoncé’s new album, and why he’s so excited about the upcoming 30th anniversary reunion tour of Hootie and the Blowfish.
