"It was such an honor to create this project with such incredibly talented artists," said lead vocalist LeVox, 54, in a statement. "It's a pretty indescribable feeling having your colleagues and friends do your songs in such unique ways and knock your socks off with the results."
He continued, "This album is just another attempt for us to thank our fans for the blessings they've given us on this crazy journey the past 25 years, thanks for riding along with us!"

The tour resumes March 6 in Columbus, Ohio and continues through April 5 with a final show in Jacksonville, Fla.
Upon the release of "I Dare You" — written by Nick Jonas, along with Dan + Shay's Shay Mooney and co-writers Dewain Whitmore Jr. and Tommy English — at the end of January, DeMarcus, 53, spoke about its creation.
"We're so excited to kick off this next chapter of Rascal Flatts with this single, working with Kevin, Joe and Nick is such a blast, they're class acts," he said in a statement at the time.
DeMarcus continued, "I think this song fits perfectly into our catalogue while also showing off something new and exciting, and we can't wait to share it with our fans on the road!"
