Welcome to my page about Tim!
Tim McGraw was born May 1, 1967, in Delhi, La. After a small-town upbringing, he arrived in Nashville in the early '90s and released his self-titled debut album in 1992 on Curb Records. He didn't have a major hit until 1994's Not a Moment Too Soon, which included the controversial single "Indian Outlaw." He followed that up with his first No. 1 record, "Don't Take the Girl," and continued with "Down on the Farm," "Refried Dreams" and the title cut. The project was named album of the year in 1994 by the Academy of Country Music.
McGraw's next album, 1995's All I Want, sold multi-platinum on the strength of the multi-week No. 1 hit "I Like It, I Love It." In 1996, McGraw teamed up with Warner Bros. recording artist Faith Hill for the Spontaneous Combustion Tour. It proved to be just that, as McGraw and Hill were married in October 1996. Daughter Gracie arrived in 1997, Maggie in 1998.Audrey Caroline was born in December 2001.
McGraw recorded the multi-platinum Everywhere, named album of the year by the Country Music Association in 1998. The lead single, "It's Your Love," was the first musical collaboration between McGraw and Hill. It held the No. 1 spot on the Billboard country singles chart for six weeks, garnered the couple a vocal event of the year trophy from the CMA, and won vocal event, video, song and single of the year for 1997 at the ACM Awards. McGraw joined Hill on other award-winning collaborations, including "Just to Hear You Say That You Love Me," which won the 1998 ACM vocal event trophy, and "Let's Make Love," which earned the duo their first ever Grammy award in 2001. A Place in the Sun arrived in 1999, debuting at No. 1 on both the Billboard country and pop albums charts and producing hits "Please Remember Me," "My Best Friend," "My Next Thirty Years" and "Something Like That." The project won McGraw his second straight CMA album of the year award in 1999. Already a popular headline act, McGraw joined the lineup for the George Strait Country Music Festival. He also teamed up with Asleep at the Wheel frontman Ray Benson to record "Milk Cow Blues" for the Wheel's Grammy-winning Bob Wills tribute album, Ride With Bob. McGraw's picked up male vocalist of the year honors at the CMA awards in 1999 and 2000 and at the ACM awards for 1998 and 1999. McGraw Greatest Hits was released in December 2000 and has since gone multi-platinum. His sixth studio album, Set This Circus Down, hit stores in March 2001.
