Brad Paisley received his first guitar at the age of
eight and was performing in church soon there after. He
was in his first band and writing his own music by the
age of 12 and after a performance on Jamboree USA, he was
invited to join full-time where he ended up opening for
numerous big names like The Judds, Little Jimmy Dickens,
and Roy Clark. Not forgetting he was still young and entitled
to live like it, he attended Belmont University in Nashville
where he met countless contacts. He ended up signing a
songwriting contract with EMI right out of school but soon
signed with and made his debut with Arista. 1999’s “Who
Needs Pictures” brought Paisley two hit singles and
his next album, “Part II,” would earn him another
solid album and more top ten singles. His newest release,
2003’s “Mud On The Tires,” featured hit
songs like “Celebrity” and “Little Moments
(Like That).” It also contained a duet with Alison
Krauss entitled “Whiskey Lulluby” that became
one of the top played songs on the radio
