Singer, author, actress, and television host Trisha Yearwood rocketed to fame in the early 1990s. Signed to MCA Nashville, she released her self-titled album in 1991. Its lead single, “She’s in Love with the Boy,” rose straight to No. 1 on Billboard’s country charts – the first time for a debut single since Connie Smith’s “Once a Day,” 27 years prior – and brought her an immediate fan base. Three other singles from the album breached the Top 10, catapulting the sales of Trisha Yearwood to make the LP country music’s first platinum debut in two decades.
Despite the appearance of overnight success, Yearwood was not a neophyte in Music City. The daughter of a small town Georgia banker and a schoolteacher, she’d moved to Nashville fresh from high school. After completing a music business program at Belmont College and working as a tour guide at the Country Music Hall of Fame, she began singing wherever she could – at bars, in bowling alleys, and on demo recordings for songwriters, making between $10 and $30 per song. “I worked cheap. I sang on pitch and I knew the song when I got there,” she remembers, “so I got a lot of work.“ Singing on demos also served as a training ground for Trisha. “I learned what a good song was,” she says, “and I learned what my own voice was, because I had to take a song that no one had ever sung and make it my own.”
After the phenomenal success of her first album, Yearwood went on tour as Garth Brooks’s opening act, gaining more exposure and more fans. Between 1992 and 1995, she produced three more platinum albums and multiple Top 10 hits, including two No. 1s: “Thinkin’ About You” and “XXXs and OOO’s (An American Girl),” co-written by Alice Randall. In 1997 and 1998 she was named CMA’s Female Vocalist of the Year, won multiple GRAMMY awards, and was hailed as one of the great singers of the era, in any genre. In 1999, she was inducted as a member of the Grand Ole Opry – an evening that is now a treasured family memory for Yearwood.
Yearwood, married to Brooks since 2005, has expanded her success in the music business into a lifestyle empire that includes a clothing line, the “TY Home Collection” of furniture, rugs, and accessories, and “Trisha’s Southern Kitchen,” a popular Emmy-winning show on the Food Network. In late 2018 she released her 13th solo album, Let’s Be Frank – a tribute to music icon Frank Sinatra.
