Some three decades into a country music career, McGraw keeps putting out hit songs. He connected with the Chicago crowd like a singer with nothing to prove.
A strange, unexpected thing happened Friday at the United Center. Tim McGraw repeatedly returned to a once-hallowed concept that seldom surfaces at concerts — or increasingly, in contemporary political, social and cultural spheres. The endangered notion? Common decency, and what really matters in the measure of one’s life.
Which put the focus on him. Early in the performance, McGraw told the crowd it could ignore him since his backing band would be the best it would ever hear. Not quite, but the eight-piece ensemble proved very capable. It instilled a majority of songs with sturdy rock overtones and welcome traits — layered textures, Southern-styled grit, bluesy pep, fuller volume — that they lack on record.
Credit McGraw, too, for expanding his visibility by pursuing other entertainment ventures. In 2019, his name graced the covers of two best-selling books. His forays into acting run deeper. After a breakthrough role in “Friday Night Lights” , McGraw appeared in numerous films and television shows, most notably as the character of James Dutton on “Yellowstone” and its “1883” spinoff. Earlier this month, Netflix announced that McGraw will star as a champion bull rider in an upcoming drama series.
