Craig Morgan Biography

Craig Morgan is one of the most popular and richest Country Singer who was born on July 17, 1964 in Kingston Springs, Tennessee, United States. American country singer who has released multiple top ten country hits, including the popular “That’s What I Love About Sunday.”

He was accompanied by Angie Harmon in the 2012 music video for “This Ole Boy.”

Craig Morgan Greer (born July 17, 1964) is an American country music artist. A veteran of the United States Army as a forward observer, Morgan began his musical career in 2000 on Atlantic Records, releasing his self-titled debut album for that label before the closure of its Nashville division in 2000. In 2002, Morgan signed to the independent Broken Bow Records, on which he released three studio albums: 2003’s I Love It, 2005’s My Kind of Livin’, and 2006’s Little Bit of Life. These produced several chart hits, including “That’s What I Love About Sunday”, which spent four weeks at the top of the Billboard country charts while also holding the No. 1 position on that year’s Billboard Year-End chart for the country format. A greatest hits package followed in mid-2008 before Morgan signed to BNA Records and released That’s Why later that same year. After exiting BNA, Morgan signed with Black River Entertainment and released This Ole Boy in 2012, followed by A Whole Lot More to Me in 2016.

Upon his return home to Tennessee, he worked various jobs to support his family, including as a construction worker, a security guard and a Wal-Mart employee. He would later land a job in Nashville singing demos for other songwriters and publishing companies. The demos led to releasing his first album with Atlantic Records, the self-titled Craig Morgan in 2000. It produced three singles including “Something to Write Home About”, which reached number 39 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts. The album was produced by Buddy Cannon and Norro Wilson, with co- writing credits from Cannon, Bill Anderson and Harley Allen among others. The album’s final track, “I Wish I Could See Bakersfield”, included a recitation from Merle Haggard. Country Standard Time critic Jon Weisberger gave the album a mixed review, saying that Morgan had a strong singing voice but that most of the songs were “by-the-numbers”. Jim Patterson of The Ledger said that lead- off single “Something to Write Home About” was “pedestrian”, but that the rest of the album was “an uncommonly assured hard-country effort”. Late in the year, Morgan charted a Christmas single entitled “The Kid in Me”. Morgan left Atlantic Records in early 2001 when the label closed its Nashville branch, but said that he was not afraid of his musical future because he still had a publishing contract at the time.

He married Karen Morgan in 1988 and they welcomed three sons and a daughter.

On September 18, 2008, Morgan was invited by John Conlee to become a member of the Grand Ole Opry. Conlee formally inducted him as a member during the October 25, 2008, edition of the Opry. Although it had been first announced that Morgan would sign to Big Machine Records’ sister label Valory Music Group, he instead signed to BNA Records, a division of Sony BMG Nashville. His first album for the label, That’s Why, was released in October 2008. Its first single, “Love Remembers”, became his sixth top ten hit by early 2009, but follow-up “God Must Really Love Me” peaked at number 26. BNA re-issued the album in May 2009, replacing two of its tracks with the newly recorded “Bonfire” and “This Ain’t Nothin'”. The former was released that month as the album’s third single, also reaching top ten. In October 2009, the music video for “God Must Really Love Me” won Video of the Year from the Inspirational Country Music Awards. In early 2010, “This Ain’t Nothin'” was released as the album’s fourth single. It became a top 20 country hit by year’s end. Stephen Thomas Erlewine criticized the album for having “uninspired” material, but praised Morgan’s “cured country croon”. In a more favorable review, Country Standard Time wrote that the songs were “simple but profoundly observant” and compared Morgan’s singing voice to Randy Travis. Morgan’s last single for BNA, “Still a Little Chicken Left on That Bone”, was released in October 2010. The song peaked at number 37 on the country music charts in January 2011. A month later, he left the label.
