About Daryle Singletary:
Daryle Singletary rose to fame in the 90s with a string of successful hardcore country albums. From rural Georgia, where his father was a postmaster, Singletary moved to Nashville in 1990 to pursue a music career full-time. After catching the eye and ear of his musical hero, Randy Travis, Singletary released his debut record, the self-titled Daryle Singletary (1995), which produced four Billboard Hot Country charting singles, including the smash hit “I Let Her Lie,” which topped out at No. 2 on the charts. Additional hits included the 1996 single “Too Much Fun,” and 1997’s “Amen Kind of Love.” Other hit albums include 1998’s top-20 album, 'Ain’t It the Truth,' and a pair of albums featuring some of Singletary’s favorite country songs, 'That’s Why I Sing This Way' (2002) and 'Straight From the Heart' (2009). His last album, 'There’s Still A Little Country Left,' was released in 2015. In 2018, Singletary died at age 46, from a blood clot.
