Vincent Grant Gill is one of country music's enduring talents, an award-winning singer/composer who's been pushing his star forward since he was 18 years of age in Louisville. Gill, born in 1957 in Norman, Oklahoma, however has shown versatility in his career that has helped him in his quest for stardom. His father was a lawyer whose off-duty time was spent playing in a country band and this gave young Vince an early taste of the music. His dad encouraged him to get into country and while still in high school, he joined a bluegrass band called Mountain Smoke. He moved to Louisville in 1975 to join Bluegrass Alliance with Sam Bush and Dan Crary and by 1979 he was in the popular band Pure Prairie League playing guitar, banjo and fiddle and singing. He is on three PPL albums. He then joined Rodney Crowell's backup band, the Cherry Bombs, before going solo with a mini-LP for RCA, TURN ME LOOSE. Gill was in the band on early Patty Loveless albums and later when he was making his own records, she sang a duet with him on "When I Call Your Name," which copped the Country Music Association's (CMA) Single of the Year. In 1991, he had three Top 10 hits in "Pocket Full of Gold," "Liza Jane" and "Look At Us." He was also voted Male Vocalist of the Year by the CMA in 1991 and the following year repeated that award and added honors for Song of the Year for "Look At Us." In 1992, he continued his success with No. 1 hit "I Still Believe In You" and "Take Your Memory With You," which hit No. 2. He showed his versatility by singing harmonies on the Dire Straits album ON EVERY STREET and then asked Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) to sing on his album, POCKET FULL OF GOLD. He turned down an invitation to join DS on its 1992 world tour in order to further his own career.
