Billy Ray Cyrus
Those familiar with the Billy Ray Cyrus story know that the Kentucky
native's musical roots lie firmly in the church. Billy Ray Cyrus grew
up surrounded by gospel music. Though Cyrus went on to fame as the multi-platinum
hunky heartthrob behind such country hits as "Achy Breaky Heart,"
"Could've Been Me," "In the Heart of a Woman" and
"Busy Man," his own faith still runs deep.
Billy Ray Cyrus admits his long, hard struggle to get his career off the
ground and the ensuing rocket ride as "Achy Breaky Heart" catapulted
him to international fame tested his faith. With that realization came
a shift in his priorities. "My family became my foundation, and my
spirituality became my foundation," he says. "That's when I
started reconnecting back to life, instead of being out there in the twilight
zone on some rocket spinning out of control." Though he's come full
circle musically, Billy Ray Cyrus stresses he's still the same imperfect
person he's always been.
His impressive career resume also includes the million-selling "It
Won't Be The Last," three number-one and many top-ten singles including
1999s "Busy Man," which still receives strong recurrent airplay.
Over the years Billy Ray Cyrus has maintained his worldwide success, earning
multi-platinum certifications in Australia, platinum in Denmark, New Zealand
and Norway and gold in the UK and South Africa as well as a Diamond Award
in Canada.

to Manhattan in the sitcom Doc. He returned to music world with 2003's
Time Flies and the gospel-inspired Other Side, and in 2006, the same year

Riding on the wave of Hannah Montana's popularity, Cyrus released his
tenth studio album, Home at Last, in 2007 on the Disney label. The album
debuted at number 20 on the U.S. Billboard charts, both re-establishing
Cyrus as a presence in country music and highlighting the popularity (not
to mention influence) of his daughter's show. ~ Tom Roland & Stephen
