From a fair news release:

With over 10 years since the release of his self-titled album, Craig Morgan has been a mainstay on the charts with 14 Top Ten hits including “Redneck Yacht Club,” “Almost Home,” and “That’s What I Love About Sundays.” In 2008, Morgan became a member of the Grand Ole Opry, what most consider a pinnacle of the country music profession. In addition to his music career, Morgan is extremely proud of nearly two decades of service to the U.S. military and remains an enthusiastic supporter. He has traveled overseas to dangerous places to perform for our troops. He’s entertained countless fans in every corner of the globe and has shared the stage with Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Trace Adkins and consistently sells out headlining dates. In addition to singing, Morgan is also a TV star, with his show “Craig Morgan: All Access Outdoors,” on the Outdoor Channel. It’s a 30 minute reality show that offers fans a look at Morgan’s extreme lifestyle at home as well as a roller coaster ride that is the music business.
