Billy Currington

Country music couldn't have known it was waiting for Billy Currington until he came along, but boy, once he did . . . Currington scored a hit his first time at bat with debut single "Walk a Little Straighter," a soul-baring song based on real-life experiences that packs both a killer chorus and an emotional punch. The Georgia boy's #1 smash "Good Directions" casts Currington as a down-home dude who almost lets the girl of his dreams drive out of his life while he's helping her get from lost to found. And speaking of dream girls, Shania Twain knew who to call when she needed a country boy to be her duet dream date for a sassy, steamy "Party for Two." With a barrelful of hits already in the rearview, it's easy to forget Currington's just begun showing us what he's made of, but right here's where you can get caught up on the story so far.
