He was raised in Hendersonville, Tennessee.[10] He grew up knowing other singers including Tim McGraw and Brooks & Dunn.[11] He has one younger sister,[12] and two younger half-brothers; one on his mother's side, and one his father's side.[13]

After learning to play drums while attending junior high school, Rhett later would go onstage with his father and play. In high school, he was part of a band named The High Heeled Flip Flops.[14] Rhett went to Lipscomb University in Nashville, Tennessee, to study communications.[15] He dropped out of college when he was 20 to pursue a career in music.[16] He subsequently accepted a publishing deal by Big Machine Label Group to write songs.[11]

During the chart week of September 21, 2013, the Country Airplay chart included five songs within the top 10 that Rhett or his father had co-written, including "It Goes Like This".[19]
