With his first two singles reaching number one upon their release, Clay Walker immediately established himself as a commercial success. Unlike most of his new country contemporaries of the mid-90s, he was able to sustain that success over a couple of years, racking up no less than five number one singles in the first three years of his career.

Walker (born August 19, 1969) was born and raised on a farm in Beaumont, TX, the hometown of George Jones. He fell in love with country music at an early age, when his father gave him a guitar when he was only nine years old. After he graduated from high school, Walker pursued a musical career full-time, playing concerts across the South, the Midwest, and Canada. For over three years, he toured and went to school, taking courses about the music business. During this time, he acted as his own manager. Eventually, he became the house singer at the Neon Armadillo bar in Beaumont. While performing at the club, producer James Stroud heard Walker and offered to work with the singer. Stroud helped Walker secure a contract with Giant Records, and the pair began working on the vocalists debut album.

Whats It to You became a number one hit upon its release in August of 1993, with Live Until I Die following it into the pole position later that same year. Both singles were featured on his debut album, Clay Walker, which was released in the fall of 1993. Where Do I Fit in the Picture, the third single from the album, became a number 11 hit in early 1994. White Palace was a flop, failing to crack the Top 40, but Dreaming with My Eyes Open became his third number one hit in the summer of 1994, helping make his debut record a platinum album. If I Could Make a Living was not quite as successful as his debut, yet it still yielded the number one title track. Hypnotize the Moon, Walkers third album, appeared in the fall of 1995, preceded by the number two single Who Needs You Baby. He followed with Self Portrait in 1996 and Rumor Has It in 1997. A Greatest Hits collection appeared in 1998 and a new album, Live, Laugh, Love, was released in 1999. Say No More followed two years later, with A Few Questions arriving in 2003 and Fall in 2007.
