Funny that someone that writes for a blog called PopMatters does not understand the concept that popularity equals financial success, which in turn equals personal and artistic freedom. Hooking your wagon up with a smart business man and Pop Star like Mr. Chesney is as good as gold for Grace; and her Nocturnals. Crossing genre's does nothing but increase the value of the Grace Potter brand-name, and apparently there are  perks, like an appearance on the Today Show.
