LAS VEGAS (AP) – The love story of Tim McGraw and Faith Hill started on a tour two decades ago and that sparkling chemistry onstage has made them one of the genre’s biggest headliners.
The country couple with movie star glamour has sold over 63 million albums in the U.S. between their two careers, has earned two Grammys for duets they sang together and has three children. This year, they are releasing their first-ever duet album together and started their third installment of their highly successful Soul2Soul World (it launched last week).
“I haven’t been on a stage like this in 10 years and that is no lie,” Hill said of the tour. “I can tell you right now I am fired up.”
During an Associated Press interview with the couple before their rehearsal at the Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas earlier this month, Hill and McGraw were giddy with anticipation.
“She’s ready to turn it loose,” McGraw said.
