Could it be that the bushy sound of country music again uncovered another stellar in the person of debonair Sam Hunt? He may just be starting but this guy right here has already captured the hearing of gaining population of audiences especially those of with inclination with country music.
Long before we heard his husky voice back in 2014, Hunt has been writing songs for other country music giants like Keith Urban in Cop Car, Kenney Chesney in Come Over and Billy Currington in We Are Tonight.
You simply cannot miss the presence of this man be it on screen or during live performances. Aside from the looks that is truly to behold, he is also a scene stealer – blame his height as he stands 6’4. Really, can someone possibly have it all?
Before writing lyrics and singing melodies, Hunt can be seen playing in football fields. He had a promising career as a quarterback in schools Middle State Tennessee State University and University of Alabama in Birmingham back then. Born in December 1984 in Cedartown Georgia, Hunt tried getting into football but due to injuries that caused him to have limited participation, the desire was gradually converted to music.
It was January 2014 when he signed up for MCA Nashville. Months later, he released X2C which debuted number 36 on billboard 200. It even managed to penetrate Billboard’s Top Country Album Chart hitting number 5. The said album sold 8,000 copies on its first week of release.
His debut album was released in November of 2014 entitled Montevallo following the name of his old flame’s hometown. The said album reached number 1 on Top Country Albums. It even reached number three spot in Billboard 2000. This album has been gaining success as it marked 70, 000 units sold from its opening. His reach was concluded as the tickets for his tour Lipstick Graffiti got wiped within minutes after the announcement of ticket availabilities has been made.
