As a result, Swindell has had one of the best years of any artist in the country genre and is very grateful. And it shows not only in his words but his face, because throughout our recent chat at Radio.com's studios in New York, the singer was all smiles.

No matter what happens with this whole thing, I hope I always get to go back and do that."
