Varble wrote A Little More Country Than That with Rory Lee Feek and Don Poythress while the three were at a writing retreat held at Mickey Newbury's cabin near Nashville, Tennessee. The song was recorded by Easton Corbin and released in August 2009 as Corbin's debut single. The song peaked at Number One on the U.S. country singles charts dated for the week ending April 3, 2010, its thirty-second week on that chart.
