Travis Tritt has grown to be considered among today’s country music’s legends. Tritt has been singing and performing since boyhood, but it was not until his visit to an African-American church that he learned to put “a little more soul” in his music.
This is Tritt’s innovation: applying all the bends, sweeps and curls in his voice. Besides gospel music, his other influences came were the music of Andrae Crouch and Lynyrd Skynyrd’s southern rock genre.
Garth Brooks described Tritt as the only country artist that never wore a cowboy hat, and his music was the only one that dips into the bluesy Southern Rock genre.
Zell Miller added that Tritt is one of the artists that is able to walk the narrow path of combining his country heritage with his leaning to rock music.
Tritt was also asked about his songwriting choices and inspirations. Tritt said that he strictly writes from his own personal experiences and that he does not have a single formula in writing a specific single.
