Lyle Lovett

Almost anyone who is vaguely
associated with Lyle Lovett,
one of country music’s most
recognized contributors, will
know that the secret to his
success comes from the three
Cs (alliterative in nature, of
course): class, charisma and
consistency.

With four Grammy awards under
his belt among which the
distinctions are for Best Male
Country Vocal Performance and
Best Country Album, his
contribution to country music
has just not been in the realm
of performance but also as a
songwriter, which was how he
broke into the music business
in 80s until he released a
self-titled album in 1986
under MCA Records.
With a career spanning almost
two decades, he has released
21 singles and recorded 13
albums among which the album
released in 2007 known as
“It’s not big, it’s
Large” peaked at #2 on the
Top Country Albums Chart.

And if that’s not enough,
unlike the other country music
who stick to their
‘roots’, his foray into
theater, the movies and
television has also added to
his long list of achievements
in the entertainment industry,
not forgetting his marriage to
America’s Sweetheart Julia
Roberts and the honorary
degree “Doctor of Humane
Letters” from the University
of Houston.

Lyle Lovett has combined a
number of musical styles that
spans good old traditional
country music to rock, jazz,
folk, swing, gospel and blues
in his years as a country
musician, and there is no
doubt that he will continue to
make waves in the years to
come.
