Andy Griggs - lyrics

Louisiana native Andy Griggs grew up listening to the sounds of Merle Haggard, but turned his head toward outlaw country and gospel by college. After a short stint at Northeast Louisiana University, Griggs returned home in the early 1990s to properly grieve the d**hs of his father and brother. He became a minister, settled into family life with a new marriage, but he was still playing guitar. The music was in his veins, so Griggs began writing songs. By 1997, Griggs was paving his way in Nashville. He issued his debut album You Won't Ever Be Lonely in 1999; it went gold and charted three-top ten single with "She's More,", "I'll Go Crazy," and "You Won't Ever Be Lonely." Three years later, Griggs returned to the country spotlight with a second album Freedom. First single "Tonight I Wanna Be Your Man" was another chart smash. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide show less
