Vince Gill: Six Degrees of Separation

Even in the entertainment industry, it is a small world after all.

In promoting Vince Gill’s newest album, Down To My Last Bad Habit, a new website called 6 Degrees of Vince Gill has been created to show just how closely connected the country singer is to everyone. The idea was inspired by the once-popular site of Kevin Bacon’s celebrity links back in the early 2000’s, but comes with a modern music approach this time around. All you have to do to operate the page is type in a favorite band or singer and bam! After searching handfuls of names one would never put with Gill, it’s safe to assume more times than not that he has some sort of tie with them.

On average, he is only about three short steps away from any artist in the music industry. Yes, that includes anyone from Elvis Costello to Kanye West to One Direction. The site even lets users narrow down the search results to specific genres and occupations within the industry to prove how close Gill really is.

While it may be an initial shock to the average Gill fan that he basically knows everyone, it makes perfect sense when his legendary careers includes 18 studio albums, 20 Grammy Awards and 18 CMA Awards. With his iconic mark in music and his friendly personality, it’s no wonder he knows his way around the music world.

Down To My Last Habit will be released on February 12, but it feels like everyone is one step closer to Gill himself.
