Darius Rucker is leaving nothing untold in his new groundbreaking Hulu documentary, where a slew of country stars will appear. So, what else can fans expect from this film, and when does it premiere? Keep reading for all of the exciting details.

Darius Rucker Has Been In The Spotlight For Decades

The best part of Darius Rucker is that he spans decades, generations, and musical genres. He was a part of the college music scene with Hootie & the Blowfish. In fact, many people do not even realize that his name is not Hootie. Then, he transitioned to country and has not looked back. Regardless of what he sings or his audience, fans clamor for a chance to hear him live. However, Darius has stated that he will only be performing live for a few more years, and then it will be over.

Now, Darius has a very special documentary coming to Hulu that will take viewers inside the highs and lows of his life. It will showcase his issues with drugs and alcohol, how he overcame them, marital problems, and rebuilding his life. They will even get a sneak peek at his forthcoming album while seeing special behind-the-scenes moments that have been kept in the vault. Interviews will include country superstars Brad Paisley and Lady A, as well as actor Woody Harrelson. His bandmates from Hootie & the Blowfish will also appear in the film entitled Darius Rucker: They Called Me Hootie. 

Now sixty years old, Darius has come a long way from where he started, but he has not forgotten his roots:

When I look back on my life and career, I never could have imagined the road I’d take or where it would lead me… I’ve had opportunities beyond anything I dreamed of, but there have also been times when I had to take a chance, bet on myself and trust that I could do things my own way.
