Through five albums and seventeen chart hits, Darryl Worley
has produced one of the most impressive and wide-ranging catalogs in
contemporary music. He has for ten years been a mainstay of modern
country, a distinctive singer and first-rate songwriter whose music has
chronicled life, love and the world situation with equal facility.
He has topped the charts with singles including "I Miss My Friend,"
"Awful, Beautiful Life" and "Have You Forgotten?" which accomplished the
feat for one, two and an incredible seven weeks respectively. He hit the
Top 20 with the first three singles from his impressive major-label
debut, Hard Rain Don't Last - "When You Need My Love," "A Good
Day to Run" and "Second Wind" and followed with smashes like "If
Something Should Happen," "I Just Came Back From A War" and the iconic
"Tennessee River Run."
Along the way, he has sold nearly two million albums, earned
nominations for five major ACM and CMA awards, including "Song of the
Year" and "Single of the Year," and has written songs for other major
artists, including George Jones.
Now, with the release of his sixth album, Sounds Like Life,
Worley reasserts himself as one of country’s true creative forces.
Sounds like Life showcases Worley as a songwriter of depth and passion
and a singer whose versatility and believability have grown stronger
through the years. The project is a microcosm of his life and career,
with the sometimes rocky, sometimes triumphant road he’s traveled
infusing every track, and it bears both the sense of detail and the
universality we’ve come to expect from the 6’6“ hit-maker.
