'''Jack Owen Ingram''' (born November 15, 1970) is an American [[country music]] artist.
'''Jack Owen Ingram''' (born November 15, 1970) is an American [[country music]] artist formerly signed to [[Big Machine Records]], an [[independent record label]]. He has released eight [[studio album]]s, one [[extended play]], one [[compilation album]], six [[live album]]s, and 19 [[single (music)|singles]]. Although active since 1992, Ingram did not reach the U.S. Country Top 40 until the release of his single "[[Wherever You Are (Jack Ingram song)|Wherever You Are]]" late-2005. A number one hit on the ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' country charts, that song was also his first release for Big Machine and that label's first Number One hit. Ingram has sent six other songs into the country Top 40 with "[[Love You (Jack Ingram song)|Love You]]", "[[Lips of an Angel]]" (a [[cover version]] of a song by [[Hinder]]), "[[Measure of a Man (Jack Ingram song)|Measure of a Man]]", "Maybe She'll Get Lonely", "[[That's a Man]]", and "[[Barefoot and Crazy]]".

==Biography==
Ingram was born in [[Houston, Texas]]. He started writing songs and performing while studying [[psychology]] at [[Southern Methodist University]] in [[Dallas]], where he was member of [[Alpha Tau Omega]].

===Musical career===
Jack Ingram began his music career singing at a privately owned bar near the TCU campus of Fort Worth, Texas which was owned by his friend [[John Clay Wolfe]].
Later, during the early 1990s, Jack toured the state of Texas opening for [[Mark Chesnutt]] and other acts.<ref name="allmusic">{{cite web|url={{Allmusic|class=artist|id=p89255|pure_url=yes}}|title=Jack Ingram biography|last=Erlewine|first=Stephen Thomas|work=[[Allmusic]]|accessdate=2009-05-28}}</ref> His first release was his self-titled album in 1995 via the Rhythmic label, followed by 1995's ''Lonesome Question''. [[Warner Bros. Records]] eventually signed him and released a live album entitled ''Live at Adair's'', and re-issued his first two indie albums.<ref name="allmusic"/>

In 1997 he had his first and only time on the 22nd season of [[Austin City Limits]]. That same year, he released ''[[Livin' or Dyin']]'' via [[Rising Tide Records]], which produced his first chart single in the No.&nbsp;51-peaking "Flutter". Two years later came ''Hey You'' via Lucky Dog, a division of [[Epic Records]], which accounted for a No.&nbsp;64 country single in "How Many Days". In 2000, he collaborated with [[Charlie Robison]] and [[Bruce Robison]] for the live album ''Unleashed Live''.

''[[Electric (Jack Ingram album)|Electric]]'', his second album for Lucky Dog, was also his first album to enter [[Top Country Albums]], despite not producing a chart single. This album was supplemented a year later by an [[extended play|EP]] entitled ''Electric: Extra Volts'' before he left Lucky Dog. Two more live albums followed before he signed to [[Columbia Records]] for the release of ''Young Man'' in 2004, which accounted for no singles. Another live album, ''Acoustic Motel'', was issued in 2005.

On Sunday, Feb. 3 2013 [[H-E-B]] premiered their 'Texas Myths' Super Bowl commercial featuring Jack Ingram.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLcSPOZoBPw</ref>

===2005-2011: Big Machine Records===
In 2005, Ingram signed to the independent record label [[Big Machine Records]]. Under the Big Machine banner, Ingram released a predominantly live album entitled ''[[Live: Wherever You Are]]''. His first single release on that record label, "[[Wherever You Are (Jack Ingram song)|Wherever You Are]]", became Ingram's first top 40, and later his first Number One single on the U.S. ''Billboard'' [[Hot Country Songs]] charts, as well as the first Number One for the Big Machine label. "[[Love You (Jack Ingram song)|Love You]]", the only other studio track on ''Live: Wherever You Are'', was also released as a single, peaking at No.&nbsp;12 on the charts. This song was also recorded by [[Trent Summar & The New Row Mob]] (whose frontman, Trent Summar, co-wrote it) on their 2005 album ''Horseshoes & Hand Grenades''. This is also where he met famous country music artist Taylor Swift. Jack stated they were developing a relationship though she wasn't interested.



In late 2006, Ingram released a cover of [[Hinder]]'s song "[[Lips of an Angel]]". Ingram's cover peaked at No.&nbsp;16 on the country charts "Lips of an Angel" was the lead-off single to ''This Is It'', his second album for Big Machine. This album also produced the No.&nbsp;18 "[[Measure of a Man (Jack Ingram song)|Measure of a Man]]" (a [[Radney Foster]] co-write) and the No.&nbsp;24 "Maybe She'll Get Lonely".

In 2008, Ingram appeared at the Argyle Education Foundation Black Diamond Affiar.

He won the [[Academy of Country Music]] award for top new male vocalist on May 19, 2008. Ingram also filled in for radio host [[Bob Kingsley]] on the countdown show "[[Bob Kingsley's Country Top 40]]" for the week of September 20–21, 2008.

According to [[Country Music Television|CMT]], Ingram's ''Big Dreams & High Hopes'' album has "more guts" and [[Ellis Paul]]'s "The World Ain't Slowing Down" may be the song that takes Ingram to the "next level".<ref>Shelburne, Craig. [http://blog.cmt.com/2008-09-29/jack-ingrams-new-music-will-have-more-guts Jack Ingram’s New Music Will Have “More Guts”.] CMT Blog, Sept. 29, 2008. Retrieved Oct. 29, 2008.</ref> Ingram says "It'll be fun for me to expose people to a fantastic song from an artist who's had a 20-year career of being a very successful folk artist."<ref>Mansfield, Brian. [https://www.usatoday.com/printedition/life/20081226/jackingram26_st.art.htm Ingram has 'Big Dreams' for album.] ''USA Today'', December 26, 2008. Retrieved January 6, 2009.</ref> The song was cut from the album. Its lead-off single "[[That's a Man]]" charted in the Top 20, followed by "[[Barefoot and Crazy]]," which became his second Top 10 hit. The album's next three singles all failed to enter the Top 40: "Seeing Stars" (a duet with [[Patty Griffin]]), "Free" and a re-recording of "Barbie Doll" with guest vocals from [[Dierks Bentley]].

On August 26, 2009, Ingram set a [[Guinness Book of World Records|Guinness record]] for the most radio interviews in one day, when he was interviewed 215 times.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.roughstock.com/blog/jack-ingram-breaks-guinness-book-world-record-|title=Jack Ingram breaks Guinness book world record|last=Bjorke|first=Matt|date=2008-08-26|work=Roughstock|accessdate=2009-08-27|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110613191231/http://www.roughstock.com/blog/jack-ingram-breaks-guinness-book-world-record-|archivedate=2011-06-13|df=}}</ref>
