About Brad Paisley
Born Oct. 28, 1972, in the tiny Ohio River town of Glen Dale,
W.Va., Brad Paisley seemed destined for a life of music. By the age of
10, Brad Paisley was playing well enough to accompany himself. He soon
began singing in church and at civic meetings for the Lion's Club and
the Fraternal Order of Elks. Next, he formed his first band, Brad
Paisley & the C-Notes, with his guitar instructor, local musician
Clarence "Hank" Goddard. At 12, Brad Paisley wrote his first song,
"Born on Christmas Day." His junior high school principal heard it and
asked him to do it at the next Rotary Club meeting. In the audience
that day was Tom Miller, program director for WWVA, Wheeling's country
radio powerhouse.
Miller was so impressed by the performance that he invited Brad
Paisley to make a guest appearance on Jamboree USA, the station's
legendary Saturday night show. Paisley was ecstatic, and his
performance went over so well that he was asked to become a Jamboree
regular. During his eight years on the show, Brad Paisley opened for
such country luminaries -- and personal favorites -- as Roy Clark,
Jack Greene and Little Jimmy Dickens.
Brad Paisley?s Jamboree membership also earned him the opportunity to
perform each year at the mammoth outdoor summer festival, Jamboree in
the Hills. The event routinely boasted dozens of top country acts and
drew crowds of 60,000 or more. But the weekly Jamboree turned out to
be Paisley's most valuable training ground. On the weekends he didn't
perform there, he would hang out backstage, soaking up tips from
veteran performers like George Jones.
After high school, Brad Paisley began his studies at nearby West
Liberty College. But his college advisor, Jim Watson -- noting what
he'd done and what he still wanted to do -- kept urging him to move to
Nashville and enroll in the Belmont University music business program.
At Belmont, Brad Paisley met Frank Rogers, a fellow student who now
serves as his producer; Kelley Lovelace, a frequent songwriting
partner; and many of the musicians who would later work in his band
and play on his first album. Paisley served his college internship at
ASCAP, the performing rights association. There he met Chris DuBois,
another of his co-writers. His friends at ASCAP were sufficiently
impressed by the songs Paisley was writing and set up an appointment
with the talent scouts at EMI Music Publishing. A week after
graduation, Brad Paisley signed a songwriting deal with the company.

Like many up-and-coming artists in Nashville, Brad Paisley earned
extra money by singing and playing on demos. One of these attracted
the attention of Arista Nashville's A&R Department. After a series of
meetings and phone calls, Brad Paisley added his name to the Arista
roster.
The newcomer made his mark in 1999 with the single "He Didn't Have to
Be," co-written with friend Lovelace. The song, which detailed the
story of Lovelace's real-life relationship with his stepson, gave
Paisley his first No. 1 single and helped his debut album Who Needs
Pictures go platinum.
In 2000, Brad Paisley won the Country Music Association's Horizon
Award and the Academy of Country Music's best new male vocalist trophy
and received his first Grammy nomination in 2001 in the all-genre best
new artist category. He made his Grand Ole Opry debut May 28, 1999,
and after 40 some appearances, he was inducted into the Opry on Feb.
17, 2001.
In 2002, he released his follow-up album Part II. According to
Paisley, Part II picks up right where Who Needs Pictures left off,
literally. "The fiddle that fades out at the end of the first record
leads you into the first song on Part II," he says. "I pictured
someone putting them in the CD player and playing them back to back."
The album garnered his third No. 1 hit with the hilarious "I'm Gonna
Miss Her (The Fishing Song)."
His third album, Mud on the Tires, arrived in 2003. It featured the
hit ?Celebrity,? which poked fun at fame and reality television.
