Father's Day Facts

Happy Father’s Day greeting card or background.

When it comes to country music, I don't know if I'd be as big of a fan as I am without my dad. Growing up, he had nothing but country blaring on the speakers. He introduced me to my favorite music genre and such a big part of my life. So for me, Father's Day and country music go hand-in-hand.

Here's a few tunes to crank up this weekend in celebration of Dad.


George Strait - "Love Without End, Amen"

This classic from the King of Country is the gold standard of Father's Day songs, telling the story of a father's unconditional love, passed down through generations.

Brad Paisley - He Didn't Have To Be

A tribute to stepfathers everywhere. This is an early hit from the career of Paisley about a man who steps into a kid's life and chooses to love him like his own.

Rodney Atkins - Watching You

This is my dad and I's song, and it was really cool to see Rodney recently re-record it with his own son. My dad loved it too!

Tim McGraw - My Little Girl

From the perspective of a father watching his daughter grow up, it hits hard for girl dads.

Zac Brown Band - My Old Man

An emotional song about lost fathers. It really highlights a legacy that dads leave behind. It's a powerful song for those remembering their fathers this Father's Day.

Alan Jackson - Drive (For Daddy Gene)

This is in my opinion, top three country songs of all time. It's nostalgic about childhood memories and each verse jumps to a generation down the line.

Kane Brown - Backseat Driver

A recent hit for Kane Brown, where the verses are from the perspective of the father and the choruses are from the girl in the backseat's point of view.
