Aaron Tippin

Stars quickly rise and fade in the music industry, but country artist Aaron Tippin has displayed staying power. This year marks his 25th anniversary as a recording artist.

For the last several years, fans of more substantive songwriting have widely lamented the lack of quality songs at country radio, but veteran country star Aaron Tippin says that's finally beginning to change.

Aaron Tippin, Joe Diffie and Sammy Kershaw joined forces earlier this year when they hit the road together for the Roots and Boots Tour. Playing together for their diehard fans went so well that now the three country music legends are going to release an album together.

If you're an old-school country music fan, you're going to love the upcoming Roots & Boots Tour. Featuring Sammy Kershaw, Aaron Tippin and Joe Diffie, this tour is tailor made for longtime, hardcore country music fans.

Saturday morning (May 12), country music fans were shaken by rumors that Aaron Tippin was involved in a fatal plane crash which occurred in Kansas, killing three individuals and sending the two survivors to the hospital. Tippin, well-known for his pilot skills and love for flying, was thought to be involved, as the plane that went down once belonged to him.
