William Matthew “Billy” Currington first broke into the country music scene in 2003 with the release of his self-titled debut album. Since then, the self-professed “country artist beach bum” Georgia native has gone on to release 3 more studio albums: 2005’s "Doin’ Somethin’ Right", 2008’s "Little Bit of Everything", and 2010’s "Enjoy Yourself" and garnered an impressive total of ten Top 10 hits, including six #1 hits. The six #1 hits – “Pretty Good At Drinkin’ Beer,” “That’s How Country Boys Roll,” “People Are Crazy,” ”Don’t,” “Must Be Doin’ Somethin’ Right” and “Good Directions,” are definitely worth checking out, especially “People Are Crazy” and "Good Directions", which is my personal favorite. TV host and comedian David Letterman even gave a shout out to "People Are Crazy", saying that “this song will change your life; you’re not going to do any better than this song here.”

Known for his romantic country songs, Currington's deep, soulful voice, which many have described as a "sexy Georgian tenor", along with his boyish face, hot body, and charming demeanor, have amassed the singer a very large female fan base. But the singer is equally as popular amongst the opposite sex, given his talent is indisputable.
His talent and hardworking attitude has ensured that he remains one of the most successful artists the country music world has ever produced. Billy recently achieved his 7th#1 Single, “Let Me Down Easy”, and is currently touring USA.
