Sawyer Brown on CMT Hot 20

GRAMMY-nominated country music group Sawyer Brown is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, and frontman Mark Miller recently joined CMT's Hot 20 Countdown to chat about the band's storied journey, its new album, working with Blake Shelton and more.

Miller spoke with CMT's Carissa Culiner about:

• Why the new album, Desperado Troubadours, will take listeners back to the 90s.
• How Blake Shelton became the album's producer and how he became a fan at an early age (Sawyer Brown was Shelton's first concert!).
• The impact of winning the first-ever TV music competition and the path it paved for shows like American Idol, The Voice and more.
• The goal of the band's 40th anniversary: to get to the 50th.
