Chris Lane Biography

The American country music singer Chris Lane was born in Kernersville, North Carolina. As a child, Lane initially harbored dreams of playing professional sports, especially baseball, which he went on to play in college. A series of injuries gave Chris a lot of down time off the field, and so during this time he learned to play guitar. His talent and love of performing quickly became evident and so after returning to his hometown, he formed his first band.

For the next few years, Chris Lane sought a number of opportunities to launch his music career, including auditioning for the reality competition series, American Idol. Initially, Lane fronted his own band, the Chris Lane Band, and the group released their first album, Let’s Ride, on an independent label in 2012. The album was moderately successful, rising into the top 100 on the country music charts, but shortly thereafter, Chris sought new opportunities as a solo artist.

After moving to Nashville in 2013, Chris Lane garnered the attention of Big Loud Mountain Records and signed with the label. After spending the better part of a year opening for such notable performers as Lee Brice, Brantley Gilbert, and The Band Perry, Lane released his own solo debut, the single “Broken Windshield View,” which rose into the top forty on the country music charts. The song was featured on the EP Fix, which also rose into the top twenty on the country charts and the top forty on the indie charts in the United States. The EP also spawned the the title track, “Fix,” which was even more successful than its predecessor, rising into the top twenty on the country charts and into the top ten on the Canadian country charts.

In 2016, Chris Lane released his debut album, Girl Problems, to significant success. The album reached into the top ten on the country music charts and rose to the number fifty-five spot on the mainstream charts in the United States. The album’s first single, “For Her,” reached into the top twenty on both the country charts and mainstream charts. The album has earned Chris Lane an ACM Award nomination for New Male Vocalist of the Year.

Chris Lane is a country music star on the rise and definitely one to watch in the coming years. He recently completed a tour alongside Rascal Flatts, and 2017 will see him on the road with Florida Georgia Line before returning to the studio to begin work on his sophomore studio album.
