Can you book Rascal Flatts<\/a> to play a show at a funeral?<\/p>\n You can pretty much book any artist to play any venue, if you have the money to cover the cost. But since Rascal Flatts have a few sentimental songs, like “My Wish,”Bless This Broken Road,” and “Why,” could they be booked to perform at a loved one’s funeral?<\/p>\n Taste of Country Nights<\/em><\/a>‘ Evan Paul posed the question to Jay DeMarcus<\/a> from Rascal Flatts\u00a0and got quite the response.<\/p>\n DeMarcus took an audible deep breath, said, “Oh boy…that would be so tough,” and then got ready to answer the question.<\/p>\n “Well, I think everything has a price tag,” the Flatts bassist said, and he started laughing out loud while completing the sentence.<\/p>\n “I mean, that’s what I’d have to say, you’re gonna pay us how much to do this?” he continued.<\/p>\n DeMarcus left it at that.<\/p>\n So, to us, it sounds like if your late loved one was a major Flatts fan, and if you have the right amount of money, you could get a crew and a stage setup at the funeral and the trio would come out and play for everyone in attendance: Alive and deceased.<\/p>\n We already know that you can book artists like Darius Rucker<\/a> to play at a wedding, as he once told us<\/a> he has played one wedding in his career, and he charged $1 million dollars and put on the best show they could, taking requests and mingling with guests.<\/p>\n You’ve got to wonder if Flatts would also mingle with guests after they rocked the funeral, like Rucker did at the wedding.<\/p>\n The short answer is yes. The long-winded answer is a little more complicated. The trio have been a band since around 1999, and went strong until 2020, before announcing that they were breaking up.<\/p>\n That’s when their Farewell Tour got placed on hold, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and five years passed before the group reunited for their Life Is A Highway Tour<\/em><\/a>, which went from February\u00a0to April of 2025.<\/p>\n Gary LeVox, Jay DeMarcus, and Joe Don Rooney, who together have\u00a0had\u00a017 No.1 hits\u00a0and sold over 23.4 million albums.<\/p>\n LeVox and DeMarcus are actually second cousins as well.<\/p>\n Carly Pearce, Mark Chesnutt and Colt Ford have all made headlines recently for serious medical problems, but they are not the only country stars living with chronic illness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Gallery Credit: Sterling Whitaker<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n The Top 10 country songs of 2025 represent a big shift in how we discover great music and who’s recording it.
