Chase Rice Strips Down for ‘Jack Daniels and Jesus’ From Upcoming Album [Watch]

Chase Rice is gearing up for his upcoming album, 'Ignite the Night,' to drop Tuesday and stopped by the Taste of Country studios to share his excitement. The singer stripped down, going acoustic on a performance of the heartfelt 'Jack Daniels and Jesus.'

Armed with only a guitar, bar stool and microphone, the 'newcomer' proved why he's such an asset to the direction of country music, playing a song that describes being far away from Jesus, caught somewhere between Jack Daniel's whiskey and religion.

"Only God knows where my heart is, I've got my strength and Lord knows I've got my weakness / Oh, I'm lost somewhere between Jack Daniels and Jesus," Rice sings in the honest track.

The solemn performance from the 27-year-old rising star shows a sweet, sensitive side that isn't as prevalent in his upbeat, fun songs. Rice was casual and comfy for his acoustic performance, focusing on his guitar. 'Jack Daniels' was originally featured on a six-song EP called 'Ready Set Roll,' as the bonus track. Now, Rice will unleash it on his full-length album, which will, of course, include the hot single 'Ready Set Roll,' which went gold.

The release of 'Ignite the Night' coincides with Rice's late father's birthday, Aug. 19. Get your copy here.
