Tim McGraw has spent the last decade in the upper reaches of the entertainment world. His career is marked by superlatives with record-breaking tours and multi-platinum albums, and more recently by an expanding presence in movies. It is his believability and knack for connecting with his audiences, whether he is singing a classic like, “Live Like You Were Dying,” or portraying the troubled father in Friday Night Lights, that have made his hard-won triumphs possible.
McGraw’s album Let It Go, was released on March 27, 2007 and debuted at #1 on both the pop and country album charts and has now reached platinum selling status for sales of one million. Let It Go showcases McGraw’s talent and charisma that have parlayed him into superstar status.. His wife, Faith Hill joins him on two of the album’s tracks, “I Need You,” and “Shotgun Rider,” which channels “Desperado,” offering some of the hope and solace that the Eagles classic only hinted at. McGraw also offers fans a rare glimpse at his songwriting skills in the album’s tenth track, “Train #10,” a bit of classic country indecision in the face of a bad relationship.
Tim McGraw’s awards include 3 Grammy’s, 11 Academy of Country Music awards, 11 Country Music Association awards, 9 American Music Awards, and 3 People’s Choice awards.
Southern Voice, Tim McGraw’s first studio album in over two years, was released last week. Southern Voice is the follow-up to Let It Go, which debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 in April of 2007. McGraw will support his new album with an extensive tour in 2009. “It’s A Business Doing Pleasure with You,” the album’s first single, is already being played by radio across the country.
