'''Randy Bruce Traywick''' (born May 4, 1959), better known by his [[stage name]], '''Randy Travis''', is an American [[country music]] singer, songwriter, guitarist, and actor. Since 1985, he has recorded 20 studio albums and charted more than 50 singles on the ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' [[Hot Country Songs]] charts, and 16 of these were number-one hits. Considered a pivotal figure in the history of country music,<ref name="allmusic" /> Travis broke through in the mid-1980s with the release of his album ''[[Storms of Life]]'', which sold more than four million copies. The album established him as a major force in the [[Neotraditional country]] movement. Travis followed up his successful debut with a string of platinum and multi-platinum albums. He is known for his distinctive baritone vocals, delivered in a traditional style that has made him a country music star since the 1980s.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.infoplease.com/biography/var/randytravis.html|title=Biography of Country Singer Randy Travis|accessdate=February 8, 2014}}</ref> |
|||
By the mid-1990s, Travis saw a decline in his chart success. In 1997, he left [[Warner Bros. Records]] for [[DreamWorks Records]] and changed his musical focus to [[gospel music]]. Although the career shift produced only one more number-one country hit "[[Three Wooden Crosses]]," Travis went on to earn several [[Dove Awards]], including Country Album of the Year five times. In addition to his singing career, he pursued an acting career, appearing in numerous films and television series, including ''[[The Rainmaker (1997 film)|The Rainmaker]]'' (1997) with [[Matt Damon]], ''[[Black Dog (film)|Black Dog]]'' (1998) with [[Patrick Swayze]], ''[[Texas Rangers (film)|Texas Rangers]]'' (2001) with [[James Van Der Beek]], and seven episodes of the ''[[Touched by an Angel]]'' television series. |
|||
Travis has sold over 25 million records, and has earned 22 number-one hits, six number-one albums, six [[Grammy Awards]], six [[Country Music Association|CMA Awards]], nine [[Academy of Country Music|ACM Awards]], 10 [[American Music Award|AMA Awards]], eight Dove Awards, and a star on the [[Hollywood Walk of Fame]].<ref name="allmusic">{{cite web |url={{Allmusic|class=artist |id=p1846/biography|pure_url=yes}} |title=Randy Travis Biography |accessdate=September 10, 2011 |last=Mansfield |first=Brian |author2=[[Stephen Thomas Erlewine]] |work=[[AllMusic]]}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=|first=|url=http://www.cmt.com/artists/randy-travis/biography/|title=About Randy Travis|publisher=CMT|accessdate=November 29, 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=|first=|title=About Randy Travis|url=http://www.randytravis.com/about |accessdate=September 18, 2011}}</ref> In 2016, Travis was inducted into the [[Country Music Hall of Fame]].<ref>Watts, Cindy, "Randy Travis, Charlie Daniels, Fred Foster to be inducted to Country Music Hall of Fame," ''[[The Tennesseean]],'' March 29, 2016.

== Early life == |
|||
Randy Bruce Traywick was born on May 4, 1959 in [[Marshville, North Carolina]],<ref name="allmusic" /><ref name="Gregory">Gregory, Andy (2002) ''International Who's Who in Popular Music 2002'', Europa, {{ISBN|978-1-85743-161-2}}, p. 511</ref> the second of six children of Bobbie (''née'' Tucker), a textile factory worker, and Harold Traywick, a horse breeder, turkey farmer, substitute school teacher, and construction business owner.<ref>[http://www.filmreference.com/film/65/Randy-Travis.html Randy Travis Biography (1959–)].</ref><ref name=nice/> He is a descendant of [[Cornwall|Cornish]] immigrant Robarde Traweek,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://users.hal-pc.org/~happy/surname/b70.html#P2050 |title=Little, Ross, and related families: VA – NC – AR |publisher=Users.hal-pc.org |accessdate=July 11, 2013}}</ref> whose son Robert was born in 1700 in [[Stafford County, Virginia]] and died in 1788 in [[Onslow County, North Carolina]], establishing the North Carolinian roots of the Traywick family. |
|||
Randy and his brother Ricky were encouraged to pursue their musical talents by their father, who was a fan of [[Hank Williams]], [[George Jones]], and [[Lefty Frizzell]]. In 1967, at the age of eight, Randy began playing guitar and sang in the church of Christ as a boy. Two years later, he and his brother began performing at local clubs and talent contests, calling themselves the Traywick Brothers.<ref name="allmusic" /> Randy often fought with his father and soon dropped out of high school.<ref>Gates, D. (October 22, 1990), "The voice of country music". ''Newsweek''. '''116''' (17):70.</ref> He became a [[Juvenile delinquency|juvenile delinquent]] and was arrested for various offenses, including auto theft and burglary. Travis has since voiced regret for his past misdeeds.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://kidsofwidneyhigh.com/2008/08/04/welcome-to-the-kids-new-home-online/ |title=Blog Archive " Welcome to the Kids' New Home Online |publisher=The Kids of Widney High |accessdate=March 18, 2009}}</ref> |
|||
In 1975, while his brother was serving time in jail for a high-speed car chase, Randy won a talent contest at a nightclub, Country City USA, in [[Charlotte, North Carolina]]. The club's owner, Elizabeth "Lib" Hatcher, took an interest in the young singer, hired him as a cook, and gave him regular singing jobs at the club.<ref name=nice>Miller, H.G. (October 1988), "Randy Travis: nice guy finishes first". ''[[Saturday Evening Post]]''. '''260''' (7):60–91.</ref> During the late 1970s, Randy worked and sang at Country City USA. Still in his late teens, Travis had one more encounter with the law. At his hearing, the judge told Travis that if he ever saw the singer back in his court, he should be prepared to go to jail for a long time. Travis was released into the guardianship of Hatcher, who also became his manager. The two began to focus on his career full-time.<ref name="allmusic"/> |
|||
In 1978, he recorded a self-titled album, ''Randy Traywick'', for Paula Records. The following year, he released two unsuccessful singles, "She's My Woman" and "Dreamin'". Travis moved in with Hatcher, which put further strain on her already fragile marriage. She eventually left her husband and, in 1982, she and Travis moved to [[Nashville, Tennessee]]. During this time an unlikely romance began to form between the two. Travis would later comment, "I think we discovered how much we needed each other."<ref name=aloha>[http://www.people.com/people/archive/article/0,,20063512,00.html "The Aloha Cowboy"]. ''People''. '''42''' (9):36. September 14, 1994.</ref> He and Hatcher eventually came forward with their relationship and were married in a private ceremony in 1991.<ref name=aloha/> |
|||
== Music career == |
|||
During the early 1980s, Travis was rejected by every major record label in Nashville. His early demo tapes were criticized by record executives as being "too country." To support them, Hatcher took a job as manager of a nightclub, The Nashville Palace, and hired Travis as a cook and singer,<ref name=nice/> where he performed under the name Randy Ray.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/flashback-see-randy-travis-perform-as-randy-ray-20150716|title=Flashback: See Randy Travis Perform As 'Randy Ray'|publisher=}}</ref> In 1982, Travis recorded an independent album ''Live at the Nashville Palace'', and Hatcher used the album to secure a deal with [[Warner Bros. Records]]. As part of the contract, label executives insisted they keep their romance a secret, and changed his stage name again, to Randy Travis.<ref name=aloha/> In 1985, Warner Bros. Records released the single "[[On the Other Hand]]" which peaked at No. 67 on the country charts. His next single, "[[1982 (Randy Travis song)|1982]]", became a Top 10 hit single. In 1986, Warner Bros. re-released "On the Other Hand", which became Travis' first number-one hit. |
|||
His debut album, ''[[Storms of Life]]'', went on to sell more than four million copies. In the late 1980s he had a string of hits, including "No Place Like Home" and "[[Diggin' Up Bones]]". His 1985 hit "Lazy Mooncricket Nights" was inspired by the birth of his cousin, William Garner "Spud" Simpson. A song from his second Warner Brothers album ''Always and Forever'' titled "Forever and Ever, Amen" arguably launched the neo-traditionalist country era. For two years in a row, Travis won the [[Grammy Award for Best Male Country Vocal Performance]], for the albums ''[[Always & Forever (Randy Travis album)|Always & Forever]]'' in 1988, and for ''[[Old 8x10]]'' in 1989. He also won the ACM award for Best Country Newcomer in 1986.<ref name="Gregory" /> Off the success of his first two albums, ''Old 8x10'' was certified platinum, and<ref name=nice/> ''Always and Forever'' was number-one for 43 weeks. |
|||
In 1991, Travis took part in [[Voices That Care]], a multi-artist project that featured other top names in music for a one-off single to raise money for the allied troops in the [[Gulf War]]. The project included fellow singers [[Garth Brooks]], [[Kenny Rogers]] and [[Kathy Mattea]]. In addition, Travis recorded the patriotic song "[[Point of Light]]" in response to the [[Thousand points of light]] program initiated by President [[George H. W. Bush]]. Its release prompted New York freelance writer Lina Accurso to file a complaint with the Federal Election Commission charging that the single qualified as political advertising since Bush media consultant [[Roger Ailes]] produced the song's video and White House publicist [[Sig Rogich]] was credited as a co-writer. The FEC rejected the complaint, ruling that the song and video "neither expressly advocate the election of, nor solicit contributions on behalf of, Mr. Bush."<ref>Weisberg, Jacob (October 14, 1991), "''Miata culpa''". ''New Republic''. '''205''' (16):54.</ref> |
|||
In 1992, Travis took a break from music to concentrate on acting and landed roles in several Western-genre films. He returned to recording with the 1994 album ''[[This Is Me (Randy Travis album)|This Is Me]]'' and the hit single "Whisper My Name". Three years later, Travis parted ways with Warner Brothers and signed with [[DreamWorks Records|DreamWorks Nashville]]. He recorded ''[[You and You Alone (album)|You and You Alone]]'', which produced the top 10 hits "Out of My Bones", "The Hole" and "Spirit of a Boy, Wisdom of a Man". After good friend George Jones died in April 2013 Travis recorded "Tonight I'm Playin' Possum," in Jones' memory. |
|||
After the 1999 release of ''[[A Man Ain't Made of Stone]]'', Travis shifted away from mainstream country and focused on gospel. During this time, he recorded the albums ''[[Inspirational Journey]]'' (2000), ''[[Rise and Shine (Randy Travis album)|Rise and Shine]]'' (2002), and ''[[Worship & Faith]]'' (2003). The single "Three Wooden Crosses" from the ''Rise and Shine'' album reached No. 1 and won the CMA song of the year in 2003. That same year, Travis ranked No. 13 on ''[[Country Music Television|CMT]]'s 40 Greatest Men of Country Music''. Additionally, he continued to act in film and television; he appeared in several episodes and in the series finale of ''[[Touched by an Angel]]''.<ref>Bianco, Robert (April 25, 2003), "Critic's corner". ''USA Today''.</ref> His album, ''[[Passing Through (Randy Travis album)|Passing Through]]'' was released in November 2004 and included his song about mothers titled "Angels." It combined the country music of his earlier years with the gospel influences from his latest albums. After the release of ''[[Glory Train: Songs of Faith, Worship, and Praise]]'' in 2005 and the Christmas album ''[[Songs of the Season]]'' in 2007, Travis released his brand new single "Faith in You" as a free download from his official website. It heralded the July 2008 release of his album, ''[[Around the Bend (album)|Around the Bend]]'', his first collection of mainly secular recordings in nearly a decade. |
|||
In February 2009, Travis' "I Told You So" was released as a single by [[Carrie Underwood]], who had recorded the song for her 2007 album ''[[Carnival Ride]]''. The next month, radio stations were sent a duet version of the song featuring Randy Travis on vocals. From that time on, he was credited with Underwood on the single, which peaked at No. 2 on the country charts and No. 9 on the U.S. Hot 100. That month, Travis released the two-disc greatest hits compilation ''[[I Told You So: The Ultimate Hits of Randy Travis]]''. In June 2011, he released the album, ''Anniversary Celebration''. In September 2013, he released the album ''[[Influence Vol. 1: The Man I Am]]''. |
|||
In 2016, Travis was selected as one of 30 artists to appear in the music video for "''Forever Country''", a mash-up track of [[Take Me Home, Country Roads]], [[On the Road Again (Willie Nelson song)|On the Road Again]] and [[I Will Always Love You]] which celebrates 50 years of the [[CMA Awards]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/scenes-cmas-historic-music-video-featuring-30-country/story?id=42129062|title=30 Country Music Stars Join Forces for Historic CMA Music Video|first=A.
