Spearheaded by bassist Jay DeMarcus, Flatts co-produced more than half of the album with Howard Benson and Dann Huff contributing to several of the 13 standard and 4 deluxe tracks.
"Music has changed so much in the last few years and in order to stay relevant you have to change with it, but we also had to be true to ourselves," said DeMarcus. "Rewind is a combination of staying with what people know and love, the familiar Flatts, but also bridging the musical gap into today's country music and pushing the envelope a little bit. There is a delicate balance, and I think we've done a pretty good job. There are songs on the record where people are going to say, 'That's vintage Flatts. That's what I fell in love with' and a whole new generation of country music listeners are going to go, 'Wow. I didn't expect this from them."

After we leave this planet for good, we won't be forgotten. However, we will be remembered, and we'd like to be remembered well. Then again, if one assumes there is no afterlife, does it really even matter? If there is no one to remember you, your legacy is basically a moot point. ...
As summer insistently steps forward and knocks at our doorstep with bright sunny rays and promises of sun-soaked hijinks, longtime pop country superstars Rascal Flatts aim to provide the perfect soundtrack with "Back To Us." Loaded with the band's signature tight harmonies and upbeat jams built around lyrics of love and loss, Rascal Flatts doesn't move far off the beaten path while carving out a high energy declaration of summer love.

It's the big things - and sometimes the little things - that make Rascal Flatts' Christmas album "The Greatest Gift of All" stand out. On the macro level, the country vocal trio put a little funk - well, as much funk as three Nashville guys can muster - into "Go Tell It on The Mountain."
