Notes
One of the biggest female country stars of the 90s and 2000s, Faith
Hill also took advantage of the inroads Shania Twain made into pop
territory, becoming an enormous crossover success by the end of the
millennium. Of course, Hills movie star good looks certainly helped her
cause, and her much-celebrated marriage to fellow country star Tim
McGraw gave her career an extra kick of glamour and mystique. Hill may
not have appealed to country purists, but she had the star power of a
diva even before her pop success
Faith Hill was born Audrey Faith Perry on September 21, 1967, in
Jackson, MS, and grew up in the nearby small town of Star. She was
singing for her family as young as age three and first performed
publicly at a 4-H luncheon when she was seven. Hill spent much of her
childhood singing wherever the opportunity arose, influenced primarily
by Reba McEntire, and at age 17 formed a band that played local rodeos
At 19, she quit college and moved to Nashville to make it as a singer
first finding work selling T-shirts. During this time, she was married
briefly to music executive Dan Hill. Eventually she was hired as a
secretary at a music publishing firm, where she was discovered by
accident while singing to herself one day. Encouraged by company head
Gary Morris, Hill became a demo singer for the firm and also performed
professionally as a harmony vocalist behind singer/songwriter/producer
Gary Burr, who produced Hills own demo tape. A Warner Brothers
executive caught Burr and Hills act at a Nashville club, and wound up
signing Hill to a solo deal
Hill released her debut album, Take Me as I Am, in late 1993, with
producer Scott Hendricks at the helm. Success wasnt long in coming the
lead single Wild One raced up the country charts en route to a four
week run at number one early the next year, making her the first female
country singer in 30 years to top the charts for that long with her
debut single. The follow-up, a countrified cover of Janis Joplins
Piece of My Heart, also hit number one, as did the albums title
track, and Take Me as I Am wound up selling over three million copies
Hill was set to build on her success right away, but had to undergo
surgery on her vocal cords, which delayed the recording of her next
album. Nevertheless, the wait wasnt unreasonable, and It Matters to Me
appeared in the summer of 1995. The title track became her fourth number
one country single, and it was accompanied by a string of Top Ten hits
that helped push initial sales of the album past the three million mark
Hill was by now a firmly established country hitmaker, and she continued
her active touring schedule by teaming up with Tim McGraw in 1996 for
the Spontaneous Combustion Tour. It was an apt name, as Hill married
McGraw that October. The couples first child, daughter Gracie, was born
in May of 1997, and not long after, their duet Its Your Love
recorded for McGraws Everywhere album -- was burning up the country
charts, staying at number one for six weeks
Hill returned in the spring of 1998 with Faith, which provided the first
signs that she was interested in crossing over to pop audiences, even if
the still-countrified music often straddled the fence instead of making
her ambitions explicit. The single This Kiss proved the savvy of her
approach not only did it top the country charts for three weeks, but it
also became her first pop hit, climbing to number seven. By the time
This Kiss had run its course on the charts, Hill had given birth to
her second daughter with McGraw, Maggie. If Hill had been a star in the
country world, she was now rapidly becoming a superstar, known not just
for her music but also her pure celebrity she also signed an
endorsement deal with Cover Girl makeup. Her next two singles, Just to
Hear You Say That You Love Me (another duet with McGraw) and Let Me
Let Go, hit number one country, though they didnt duplicate the pop
success of This Kiss
Faith, released in 1998, became Hills biggest-selling album yet
eventually moving over six million copies and reaching the Top Ten on
the LP charts plus, it became crystal clear that Hill held major
crossover appeal. Accordingly, she re-entered the studio immediately
after her supporting tour and cut Breathe, a full-fledged bid for pop
and adult contemporary success. Breathe entered the charts at number one
upon its release in late 1999, and its title track became Hills biggest
hit yet it spent six weeks on top of the country charts and was an even
bigger hit on the adult contemporary charts. While it only climbed to
number two pop, the single had such staying power that it wound up the
biggest hit of the year 2000. The follow-ups were pretty successful in
their own right: The Way You Love Me and There Youll Be both hit
the pop Top Ten, with the former topping the country charts and the
latter hitting number one AC. Hill also scored a Top Ten country hit
with Lets Make Love, a third duet with McGraw, and the two teamed up
for another tour in 2000. Breathe was a bona fide blockbuster, selling
over seven million copies in the U.S. and earning her a slew of award
nominations. Hill spent much of 2001 taking a break and spending time
with Audrey, her third daughter with McGraw
In 2002, Hill returned to the spotlight with her fifth studio recording
Cry, a three-million seller whose title track netted her the Best Female
Vocal Performance Grammy for 2003. Hill took nearly three years to
return to recording, but when she released Fireflies in August 2005 it
was hailed as one of her finest works. The lead single Mississippi
Girl (written by John Rich of the hit country duo Big & Rich) hit
number one on the country singles chart, and the album reached number
one on the album charts. Her Soul2Soul II tour of 2006, which she co
headlined with McGraw, became the highest-grossing country tour of all
