(Radio.com) Tonight (November 9), Chase Rice will be among a group of country music stars taking the stage at the Chicago Theatre to play CBS Radio's Stars and Strings concert. The show is a salute to those who currently serve, or have previously served in our armed forces.
The show's lineup also includes Jason Aldean, Big & Rich, Brantley Gilbert, Chase Rice, Dan + Shay, Randy Houser, Rascal Flatts and Tyler Farr.
Rice spoke to Radio.com about supporting the troops and what freedom means to him: "To me, freedom means that every day we get to wake up and know that we are not under attack. That we do not have to defend ourselves here on our soil. It also means that you get to wake up and do whatever you want. It's literally up to you. That's the greatest part about freedom: the only things that can stop us is ourselves."
Supporting the military is something that he's passionate about: "I'm a huge, huge advocate of our military; I'm a huge advocate for people who are willing to lay their lives down for me and for my family and friends."
He continues: "I had two family members serve in World War II, both of my grandparents. My dad's dad was in the Navy, my mom's dad was in the Air Force and man, I loved them both to death. Ever since I was a little kid, the Air Force and Navy are ingrained into my blood and I'll forever be grateful." Read more here.
