Thomas Rhett is currently in Australia wrapping up a bunch of shows there and his muse, his wife Lauren, is right by his side.

Like any other artist, his records and concerts have been reviewed hundreds of times during his career, but it's Lauren's opinion that he values most. “She is the ultimate gauge. If she didn’t like a song, it more than likely means that 70 percent of the female population are not going to like a song, which is a big percentage. And so I’m always playing her songs. Lauren is a person that when she listens to a song, she is strictly listening for feeling. Not that she doesn’t care about lyrics, but if you can get her to love a song within 15 seconds of the song starting, she’s on board with it.”

Rhett is heading back to the U.S. soon after wrapping his Australian tour and a stint with his whole family on tour in Europe.
