The fully authorized, uninhibited, all-access, entirely true story of how Big & Rich are taking over country music. Big & Rich have taken country music by storm since their 2004 debut album A Horse of a
Different Color, and they've done it on their own terms. Their unique, eclectic music style,
a blend of popular country with rock and hip-hop, challenges country music tradition.
Co-founders of the MuzikMafi a, they have launched not only their own careers, but
those of groundbreaking artists such as "Redneck Woman" Gretchen Wilson and Cowboy
Troy, the first African-American country rap artist. In a style as creative and irreverent
as their music, this official book will give fans a backstage pass to Big & Rich, from
the duo's early days in a Nashville dive to their controversial movement for a new sound
in country music.
