Rascal Flatts Discuss Their Legacy in “How They Remember You”

Music is starting to roll back into its original format and country music is as strong as it can be for hit-makers Rascal Flatts starting the week off right with their latest single hitting No. 24 on the Billboard charts.

Earlier this week the trio performed on TODAY’s Citi Music Series playing their hit “I Won’t Let Go” and their latest single “How They Remember You.” Co-written by Marc Beeson, Josh Osborne, and Allen Shamblin, the track depicts the legacy that one is able to leave. The opportunity to be something and leave something bigger than this world.

“Did you stand or did you fall? Build a bridge or build a wall? Hide your love or give it all? // What did you do? // What did you do? // Did you make ‘em laugh or make ‘em cry? // Did you quit or did you try? // Live your dreams or let ‘em die? // What did you choose? What did you choose? When it all comes down, it ain’t if, how they remember you.”

“How They Remember You” is the first single from their upcoming EP How They Remember You coming out on July 31st via Big Machine Records. The project will contain six unreleased songs and a cover of Kenny Rogers’ “Through The Years.” The EP shares tasteful offerings from songwriters Jesse Frasure, Thomas Rhett, Ashley Gorley, Rhett Akins, Josh Osborne, and more.

“We are so excited about our new EP and single, ‘How They Remember You,’” shared Gary LeVox in a press release. “It’s a song about what kind of impact and legacy you want to leave in life. It’s a fantastic song to celebrate 20 years of making music together. It’s an incredible message with a melody to match and we hope the fans love it, and that whatever legacy we all leave behind, it’s beautifully impactful.”

Earlier this year, the trio announced their decision to take a hiatus after celebrating their 20th anniversary. Unfortunately, their farewell tour was canceled due to the pandemic.
