All five nominees for the Heartwarming Moment of the Year award at the 2014 Taste of Country Awards involve kids ... duh. Country artists go out of of their way to help children in need, turning up in the most surprising places. It's the only format where a dying girl can ask to get a phone call from her favorite singer and actually receive it.

With Artist of the Year already decided, Song of the Year is the most distinguished honor at the 2014 Taste of Country Awards. Ten hits from 2013 make the ballot, including ACM, CMA and Grammy nominees. Combined, these tracks have sold over 11 million downloads, but which is worthy of this fan-decided honor?

Although Luke Bryan and Darius Rucker didn't actually sing 'Jingle Bells' together, they still contributed to an unintentional duet, turning the Christmas classic into a decidedly country carol!

Darius Rucker brought Christmas to the 2013 'CMA Country Christmas' special with a beautiful rendition of John Lennon's 'Happy Christmas (War Is Over).'

Darius Rucker is a man of many talents and one of them apparently is gift-giving. The singer sent Eisele, the new baby of Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott and husband Chris Tyrrell, the sweetest baby gift. It was literally rockin'.

Dreams do come true, thanks to kind-hearted singers like Darius Rucker. The country singer made a surprise appearance at a high school talent show to duet with Frankie Antonelli, a teen with Down syndrome.

It didn't win the Song of the Year or Single of the Year award at the 2013 CMAs, but Darius Rucker thinks his hit cover of 'Wagon Wheel' should be considered for a Grammy. In fact, he's going to be upset about it if it isn't.

Jennifer Nettles introduced the Kenny Rogers tribute at the 2013 CMA Awards (Nov. 6). Rogers was honored with the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award, but before he received his trophy, he enjoyed modern acts performing a medley of his songs before joining him in song.

Darius Rucker had the privilege of closing out the 2013 CMA Awards with his hit 'Wagon Wheel,' perfectly completing the country-filled evening with the classic.

Darius Rucker will take his talents to the road on his 2014 True Believers Tour, and the dates have just been announced.

There may be nothing funnier than celebrities reading mean tweets about themselves. Jimmy Kimmel has done it again, this time with a musician edition of his popular 'Mean Tweets' segment. Lady Antebellum, Darius Rucker and many others read the worst of the them.

Since 1966, the Muscular Dystrophy Association has aired 'The MDA Show of Strength' telethon, and along with being one of America's longest-standing fundraising events, it always showcases some of the hottest names in the entertainment industry. This year's 48th annual telethon is no exception, and includes country music's own Luke Bryan and Darius Rucker, along with many other fan favorites. Read
