Rhett goes on "Vacation"
Rhett's second release comes out Sept. 25 with the Vacation video out today.
Starting today, Vevo will premiere a new video every Friday. The track is the same one fans will simultaneously receive as an instant iTunes download for pre-ordering the album.
Filmed last month during a personal vacation in Hawaii, the warm-weather "Vacation" video highlights sunny adventures and home videos with his wife Lauren and friends.
"With a little under a month until 'Tanged Up' comes out, I am pumped to start sharing some more music off this record," said Rhett. "I wanted to start with a track that just feels good and is fun, so here we go with 'Vacation.' Clearly, with lyrics like 'Billabong bikini' and 'solo cup amplifier,' the song is about having a good time, whether you actually are on vacation - like we are in the video - or just kicking back in a kiddie pool in your back yard."

CD reviews for Thomas Rhett
Thomas Rhett's "Where We Started" begins with a wonderfully positive relationship song titled "The Hill." Over a quiet, acoustic guitar arrangement, Rhett sings of how a successful marriage is the hill he wants to die on. In other words, if he's going to fight for anything, he's going to battle for his romantic partnership. Unsurprisingly, Lori McKenna had a part in writing it. When it comes to setting the right priorities in life, McKenna is one of our greatest ...
Thomas Rhett is in the artistic zone. Rhett Atkins' boy never really struggled to get noticed, but starting around 2015, his impact went nuclear – "Die A Happy Man" wasn't just a number one, but a monster that stayed there for two months. The ACM Award for Entertainer of the Year still carries a lot of weight, and Rhett nabbed it in 2019.
Still, Rhett's sound has its doubters – a lot of the air-quote country hits were grafted to other dance, pop and soul styles. ...
Thomas Rhett represents a dilemma for traditional country music fans. Namely, that he doesn't create much country music that appeals to traditional tastes. Although "Center Point Road" doesn't entirely reverse that trend, even during its most overtly pop moments, this new collection of songs is still a pretty good one.
The best song is also a love song - to a truck - titled "That Old Truck." It's the kind of song that only makes sense within country music circles. ...
