When Josh Turner broke into the country music scene in 2003 with 'Long Black Train,' the newcomer was the talk of the town. He was touring the country non-stop and turned heads with his good looks and deep baritone voice. But his newfound success wasn't all fun and games. Josh's hectic schedule was taking its toll on the singer, both mentally and medically.

"My first full year of touring, I did 300 days on the road. That was not including the travel time or publicity or anything else -- that was just dates. I was home probably less than 50 days that year," Josh, who turns 31 next month, tells GAC. "I started having heart problems and was going to the doctor with inflammation in my gut. It was taking a toll on me physically and emotionally. I had a lot of stuff going on business wise that shouldn't have been going on. It was stuff like that that stressed me out. I had to make some hard decisions, and I had to clean house. I fired everybody who was working for me at the time. I was like, 'Alright, I've got to start over and do what's right.' I just started off on the wrong foot."

Josh's new single, 'Why Don't We Just Dance,' is currently climbing the charts. It's a feel-good song that mirrors his new, carefree attitude.

"Now, I try to live a stress-free life," he says.
