Chanteur Country US né Gary Tyrone England, le 5 Décembre 1963 à Oklahoma City (Oklahoma).
Ty England
may have struck out on a solo career in 1995 to some success, but to most new
country fans he was most recognizable as
Garth Brooks' touring guitarist during the height of
Brooks' stardom. Raised in Oklahoma, England began playing guitar as a child,
teaching himself the instrument on his grandfather's guitar. Over the course of
his childhood and adolescence, he delved deeply into country, learning the work
of classic singers like
Roy Acuff and
Hank Williams, as well as contemporary stylists like
Don Williams and
Keith Whitley. While he was in high school, England sang with a number of
bands in addition to the school choir. Following graduation, he attended college
at Oklahoma State. During the night, he sang at a campus coffeeshop. One night,
he met a fellow student by the name of
Garth Brooks. The two became roommates and began playing music together.
Eventually, England's grades began to slip, so his parents took him out of
school and got him a job back at home. Working at night, he finished his
marketing degree, but instead of pursuing that degree, he had a job as an auto
plant representative.
As he was working at the auto plant, he received a call from
Brooks, who had just signed a record contract in Nashville. England
immediately moved to Nashville and became
Brooks' guitarist, backup vocalist, and on-stage comedic foil. After six
years, he sought out his own record contract with the assistance of Garth Fundis,
a record producer for RCA. Fundis helped England sign a solo deal with RCA and
the guitarist released his eponymous debut album in the summer of 1995. The
first single from the record, "Should've Asked Her Faster," peaked at number
three, while the second single, "Smoke in Her Eyes," became a lesser hit. He
followed with Two Ways to Fall in 1996, resurfacing four years later with
Highways & Dance Halls. Alive and Well appeared in 2007.
