His latest extended play (EP) release, “Home Run,” includes six new songs—telling stories of hard work, fatherly wisdom, brotherly appreciation and a reworking of Montgomery Gentry’s first single “Hillbilly Shoes.” The duo were members of the Grand Ole Opry and racked up five No. 1 hits, including “If You Ever Stop Loving Me,” “Something To Be Proud Of,” “Lucky Man,” “Back When I Knew It All” and “Roll With Me.’ Their anthem “Our Town” also continues to be a fan favorite.

With five No. 1 singles, including “No Place That Far,” “Suds In The Bucket,” “A Real Fine Place To Start,” “Born To Fly” and “A Little Bit Stronger,”Evans takes fans on a musical journey filled with high-energy songs and emotional ballads. A member of the Grand Ole Opry, Evans also earned the Academy of Country Music’s Top Female Vocalist Award and numerous American Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards and Country Music Association nominations.
