Arriving in his usual checkered shirt, worn-out looking jeans, and a baseball cap Aldean helped celebrate the success of Monroe&#8217;s first chart-topper.Jason first heard the demo of &#8220;The Truth&#8221; in his car, and decided immediately that he wanted to record it. &#8220;From day one,&#8221; Aldean said, &#8220;it was my favorite song on the record.&#8221;</p>
<p>Monroe began her musical career at Dollywood Theme Park singing five times a week. After recording an album that never got released due to label changes, Monroe decided to focus on her song writing skills. Ree Guyer Buchanan&#8217;s publishing company signed Monroe at the age of 17. Monroe thanked her mother and several others for assisting her to getting to this point.</p>
<p>&#8220;Jason, it still gives me a chill. Sometimes I forget I wrote it, and I just sing along.&#8221; Monroe said. Kudos to Jason and Ashley.Country Music Photo Gallery</p>
