Garth Brooks Talks “Rodeo Man”
Garth Brooks has another #1 hit with “Rodeo Man,” it’s from his new album, Time Traveler.
He wrote it with a couple of good friends, including Ronnie Dunn and says it all started with a text.
“We’ve become texting buddies, Ronnie and I have. And a kind of a friend that was the bridge of ours was Rob Hajacos. Rob Hajacos played fiddle on everything we ever did, [and] back one word. ‘Smash.’ And then I tried to figure out some way to get my foot in the door, and he said, ‘Sure – go ahead and take a shot at it!’ And then what we ended up doing was marrying the two performances.”
“Rodeo Man” – as well as Time Traveler’s other nine songs – can be found in Garth’s new (and final) Limited Series box set.
