Yearwood said she drew inspiration from Patsy Cline and Linda Ronstadt growing up. She moved from Monticello to Nashville to pursue her music career and attend Belmont University.
She released her self-title debut album in 1991. “She’s in Love with the Boy” became the first debut single by a female artist to hit No. 1 on the charts.
Yearwood has since released 14 more studio albums and has sold over 15 million records.
