Faith Hill

Audrey Faith Perry McGraw, best known as Faith Hill (born September 21, 1967 in Jackson, Mississippi), is an American country singer, known for her commercial success as well as her marriage to country singer Tim McGraw.  Her debut album was Take Me as I Am (1993); sales were strong, buoyed by the chart success of "Wild One". A version of Erma Franklin's "Piece of My Heart", also went to the top of the country charts in 1994.  Her 1998 album, Faith, moved her closer towards a mainstream, pop-oriented sound. "This Kiss" became a #1 country hit, and went to #7 on the pop charts.  Her fame grew rapidly as she signed an endorsement deal with CoverGirl makeup and released Breathe, an even more successful pop hit that became one of the biggest albums of 2000. The title track "Breathe" was ranked as the #1 pop song that year and has become one of her signature songs. "The Way You Love Me" hit the top ten as well (#6), and became one of the longest running singles in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 (57 weeks). The album won her three Grammy Awards including Best Country Album.  She recently said in a radio interview that she will be releasing two albums in 2007. One being holiday album, which is almost complete and another album. Fans expect it to be the "Greatest Hits" album she talked about, or possibly a new studio album. Recently, Barnes & Noble and Amazon.com have listed June 12 as the release date for Faith's Greatest Hits CD and list of tracks. However, CMT.com lists May 8 as the release date also. This hasn't yet been confirmed.  She will be heard on Aretha Franklin's upcoming album A Woman Falling Out of Love planned to be released on February 2007.  She has also recorded a duet called "Sleeping with the Telephone" for Reba McEntire's upcoming Duets album, scheduled to be released mid to late 2007.  Faith is also featured on husband Tim McGraw's new album Let It Go. She sings two duets with him, "I Need You" and "Shotgun Rider." Both songs were sung at the couples critically acclaimed 2006 Soul2Soul II Tour 2006.  It has recently been announced that she and McGraw will do an encore of their Soul2Soul II Tour. Soul2Soul 2007 will begin in June and run through August.  Both Hill and McGraw have been confirmed to take part in the Live Earth concerts on July 7th 2007.  See Faith Hill LIVE!  Purchase your Faith Hill tickets today!
