Chasing your dreams can be intimidating, but sometimes they can work out better than you ever dreamed. On the day that his hero (2022 Hall Of Fame inductee Keith Whitley) died in 1989, Tim made the decision to drop everything and move to Nashville to see if he could make it as a country star. In 1994, Tim began a stretch of top twenty hits on country radio that (besides 2 or 3 tunes) has not yet been stopped. Known for being a modern-day honky-tonker who is willing to experiment with sounds, he also is known for his knack for choosing great songs. All of this, along with his marriage to another artist on this list (Faith Hill), has led to Tim being one of the best-selling music artists of all time. Other achievements are: his tour with Faith is in the top five highest-grossing tours in all genres of music, plus his endless string of awards won; 4 People’s Choice Awards, 10 American Music Awards, 14 Academy Of Country Music Awards, 11 Country Music Association Awards and 3 Grammy Awards. Piecing this all together shows that one of these days Tim will have his picture on the walls in the Hall Of Fame.
