The first time Ronnie Eades was invited to Muscle Shoals, he had one simple question:

"Where is that?"

He had no idea that one trip would lead to a lifetime of hit records, world tours, and a place in one of the most influential chapters of American music history.

Hear Ronnie share the journey on We Rocked the World: The Stories Behind the Songs.

🎧 Episode 2 is now streaming on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Amazon Music.

Sometimes the best getaway is closer than you think. ❤️

There’s still plenty of summer left to explore your own backyard! Spend a day discovering a place you’ve never visited, revisit an old favorite, take the backroads, grab a bite somewhere local or turn it into a full staycation and spend the night.

Our latest blog has plenty of ideas to help you experience Colbert County like a visitor, even if you call it home.
