Byrd’s self-titled debut album was released in 1993, and it put the singer on the map in a big way with its third single, the number one smash “Holdin’ Heaven.” The follow-up album, 1994’s No Ordinary Man, was Byrd’s commercial breakthrough. It sold over two million copies thanks to four Top Five hits: the dance tunes “Watermelon Crawl,” “Lifestyles of the Not So Rich and Famous,” and “The First Step,” and the change-of-pace ballad “The Keeper of the Stars.” 1996’s Big Love returned Byrd to the Top Five of the singles charts with the title track and “(Don’t Take Her) She’s All I Got,” and the title track of 1998’s I’m from the Country reached similar territory. Byrd followed with 2001’s Ten Rounds, and fans rewarded him by sending the single “Ten Rounds with Jose Cuervo” to the top of the charts, giving Byrd his second number one. The album also featured the Top Ten hit “Just Let Me Be in Love” and a duet with Mark Chesnutt on the playfully anti-pop “A Good Way to Get on My Bad Side.” Byrd then released Different Things on Blind Mule Records in 2006. More recently, he dropped All American Texan in 2016. Byrd continues to perform all over the country.
