Grammy Award winner Darius Rucker joins Legacy Motor Club investment group

Legacy Motor Club confirmed Wednesday afternoon that Darius Rucker has joined its organization as part of the investment group.

Rucker, a three-time Grammy-award-winner (two with '90s band Hooties and the Blowfish, and one as a solo country artist), made waves earlier in the day by dropping the news on the Dan Patrick Show. In doing so, Rucker reiterated his love of sports, particularly motorsports. 

“Darius is someone who understands the power of connection – with fans, with communities and through storytelling,” said team owner Jimmie Johnson. “What he’s built in music, the authenticity he brings to everything he does aligns directly with who we are as a Club. We’re excited to welcome him into Legacy and to build something meaningful together.”

As part of the organization, Rucker will collaborate with Legacy Motor Club on initiatives to bridge sports, music, and fan engagement. He will also support Legacy Motor Club’s business and brand development.

“From day one, this has been about building a Club that people want to be part of,” Johnson added. “Darius brings a different lens, a creative mindset, and a passion for people that will help us continue to grow in new ways.”

Johnson became the majority owner of Legacy Motor Club at the start of the 2025 season.
