Country stars celebrate Father's Day: Jason Aldean, Keith Urban, and Luke Combs receive love on the holiday

Country's biggest stars are also some of Hollywood's most beloved fathers. Musicians including Jason Aldean and Keith Urban spoke to Fox News Digital about their holiday plans.

Some of country music's biggest crooners also hold the title of devoting dad.

To mark the holiday, some posted to their social media about being proud papas, while others got some love from their partners with sweet family photos. 

Many stars were recently gathered in Nashville for CMA Fest, where Jason Aldean and Keith Urban told Fox News Digital about their unique Father's Day plans, emphasizing how much they just wanted to be with their family.

"My Father's Day plans are always the same man - I want to wake up, hangout with my kids, maybe grill out, watch them swim in the pool, and watch some baseball. Or whatever's on TV that day," he told Fox News Digital at CMA Fest. "Father's Day is usually a short-lived thing for me because my wife's birthday is like two days later."

"So it's like Father's Day: ‘Ok you’re done. Now it’s my birthday.' And then that lasts like two weeks," he joked of wife Brittany's approach for the celebratory days. "She does great for Father's Day, making sure it's like a great day for me but her birthday…definitely takes the cake a couple days later."

Brittany turns 34 on June 19. The couple share two children together, Memphis and Navy. He has two daughters, Keeley and Kendyl with ex-wife Jessica Ussery.

Aldean also shared a post dedicated to his father on Instagram. 

"Happy Father’s Day to the one and only @bigdawg1953 I don’t think you realize how much moms and dads do until you have kids yourself," Aldean wrote. "Blessed to have had this guy as my role model. Love you Pops."

He also joked that he was "pretty sure we were a few shots of tequila in when we took this pic," referring the drinks they have in hand in the photo.

Urban gave Fox News Digital insight into his relationship with his two daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret, both of whom he shares with wife of nearly 17-years, Nicole Kidman.

The Australian native laughed when asked at CMA Fest if the crowd at his shows or his two girls were harder to impress, admitting, "Well, uh, it can be a bit of both, right?"

"I'm excited for Father's Day," he continued, acknowledging that Australia celebrates the holiday on a different day. This year it will be September 3.

"I think Australia has a different date for Father's Day, which is confusing. Or great - we can have two of them. …But I'm always hoping the crowd likes what we do as well," he said, circling back to the original question.

Urban revealed that he had no plans for Father's Day other than to "be with the family."

The platinum-selling artist spoke with "Fox & Friends" co-hosts Ainsley Earhardt, Pete Hegseth and Brian Kilmeade last year about valuing family and what he wants to be remembered for.

"Moralistic values are number one for me," said Janson. "So whenever I introduce myself to someone, I want them to remember. I don't care about having a legacy of music someday that's going to come and go always with anybody in the public eye. But I want to be remembered as a great dad, a great father, a great Christian, a great husband, a great guy for conservation, somebody who helped out and did their part."
