DESCRIPTION:\nAnnual Cox Charities Benefit ConcertDarius Rucker signed with
  Capitol Records Nashville in 2007 and released his country debut\, Learn 
 to Live\, in 2008 which landed at No. 1 on the Billboard Country Albums Ch
 art. His first record garnered three consecutive No. 1 singles and earned 
 him the CMA New Artist of the Year Award. When Rucker returned to the stud
 io with Frank Rogers to record his sophomore release\, he penned 77 songs 
 for the album with the last song written becoming the lead single\, 'Come 
 Back Song.' The result was the chart-topping October 2010 release\, Charle
 ston\, SC 1966\, which has produced two No. 1's with 'Come Back Song' and 
 'This.' USA Today raved\, 'Rucker has made a fine-sounding country album\,
  full of singable choruses\, bittersweet fiddle and steel\, and guitars wi
 th bottomless twang\,' and Rolling Stone said\, 'On his Nashville debut\, 
 Rucker's rich baritone\, sentimental ballads and bright hooks made him the
  most successful African-American country singer since Charley Pride. Ruck
 er amps up that formula on album number two.'Rucker's shows center around 
 the music found on his country albums\, but occasionally he will embrace h
 is Hootie &amp\; The Blowfish heritage by turning 'Let Her Cry' into a ver
 y sad\, slow country tune or rely on the acoustic intro to 'Hold My Hand' 
 to really rile up the crowd before the sultry lyrics pour out. As many tim
 es as we've all heard those hits\, the renditions he has created with his 
 country band\, The Carolina Grey Boys\, create virtually unrecognizable ve
 rsions of the monster hits. With country chart-toppers peppering the set\,
  it's raunchy crowd hits like 'Family Tradition' and 'Purple Rain' that tr
 uly showcase Rucker's vocal prowess and remind you of just how deep his so
 uthern roots run.\n
