Chanteur
Country US né Christopher Alan Young, le 12 Juin 1985 à
Murfreesboro
(Tennessee).
The
grandson of onetime Louisiana Hayride performer Richard Yates, country
singer/songwriter Chris Young hails from Murfreesboro, TN, and first drew the
public's attention when he appeared on the Nashville Star television show
in 2006. Young's singing abilities first surfaced in children's theater
productions in grade school, and with his family's full support, he threw
himself into learning all he could about music, and country music in particular.
By the time he was a senior in high school he was already playing clubs in the
Nashville area, and his self-released debut album was out before he even
graduated from high school. Young attended college at Belmont University in
Nashville and then Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro, all while
still managing to do some 150 live shows a year. He was offered and accepted a
gig fronting the house band at Cowboy's in Arlington, TX, and it was there that
a fan kept insisting that he audition for the Nashville Star TV show.
Young eventually made the trip to Houston and passed the audition, and the whole
affair paid off handsomely with a contract from RCA Records. Young's debut
single, "Drinkin' Me Lonely," a song he wrote with Larry Wayne Clark, was
released in 2006, followed later in the year by a Buddy Cannon-produced album
called simply Chris Young. A second album, The Man I Want to Be, produced
by James Stroud, appeared in 2009. Young's third album, 2011’s Neon, may not
have gone Gold -- The Man I Want to Be did -- but it did have "Tomorrow," a
heart-wrenching ballad that was his biggest hit to date, reaching number one on
the Billboard country charts and cracking the pop Top 40 on its way to going
Platinum. "You," the second single from Neon, also went to number one on the
country charts, and two other hits followed: "Neon" and "I Can Take It from
There."
Young delivered his brighter, happier third album A.M. in the fall of 2013; it
was preceded by the party anthem "Aw Naw," which peaked at 16 on the Billboard
charts. A.M. produced two further Country Top 10 hits with the softer "Who I Am
with You" and "Lonely Eyes," singles that appeared on the charts in 2014. Young
returned in the fall of 2015 with "I'm Comin' Over," another Top 10 hit that was
also the title track to his fifth album, which saw release in November of that
year. "Think of You," a duet with Cassadee Pope, followed "I'm Comin' Over" to
number two on Billboard's U.S. Hot Country chart, while the Vince
Gill duet "Sober Saturday Night" went to number 31 later that year. In the
holiday season of 2016, Young released It Must Be Christmas; it peaked at four
on Billboard's Country Albums chart. Young released his sixth album of originals, Losing
Sleep, in October 2017.
Young began releasing material from a new project in 2019, with "Raised on
Country" reaching number five on Billboard Country Airplay while "Drowning"
peaked at 25. Young bounced back to number one in 2021 with "Famous Friends," a
duet with Kane Brown that reached the
top of the charts prior to the August release of the album of the same name.
