Country superstar Clint Black knows a thing or two about penning a catchy tune. He’s got more than 20, No 1 singles and his hit-filled live shows have the feel of a greatest hits tour. It makes him something of a maverick in a genre where many artists record music written by other songwriters.
Clint got his big break-in 1969 when RCA signed him and released his debut album Killin’ Time. The record spawned five consecutive country No. 1s, making him a star overnight and earning him several Academy of Country Music Awards including Album of the Year and Top Male Vocalist.
His chart run continued in the ’90s with a string of Top 10 albums and chart-topping hits like “A Good Run of Bad Luck” and “Nothin’ But the Taillights.”
Clint has spent the bulk of his career singing his own songs, and it’s served him well. His penchant for witty puns and clever turns of phrase is on full display in concert, both in the lyrics of favorites like “A Better Man” and during his amusing between-song banter. With his warm baritone voice, killer harmonica playing, and catalog of hits, Clint Black is a must-see for fans who like their classic country served straight-up.
