How did Tim McGraw get his start?

"People ask me, 'How could you have a relationship with your father? You were growing up in nothing. He was a millionaire baseball player. He knew you were there, and he didn't do anything,'" McGraw told Esquire in 2021 . "But when I found out Tug McGraw was my dad, it gave me something in my little town in Louisiana, something that I would have never reached for. How could I ever be angry?"

McGraw continued to be raised in that small Louisiana town, though he spent a lot of time traveling with his stepdad, who was a trucker. The two listened to country artists like Charley Pride, Johnny Paycheck, George Jonesand Merle Haggard.

"I graduated second in my high school class. I was in pre-law in college. And then I discovered playing guitar," he recalled to Esquire . "I finally had to make a phone call to my mom and say, 'I'm going to drop out of college, sell everything I have and move to Nashville.' I said that wincing, expecting a rebuke, but got 'If you don't do it, you'll always regret it.'"

Within a year and a half of his move to Nashville, McGraw signed a deal with Curb Records, and his debut album came out in 1993. However, he didn't hit the mainstream until he released the single "Indian Outlaw"in '94. His second album, Not a Moment Too Soon , was an immediate hit upon release and helped make McGraw into the household name he is today.

"I went and did my audition. We had to go to Paris, and as soon as we got in the hotel room, the phone rang. It was Billy Bob Thornton: 'I just got a call from Pete Berg, who said, 'Some country singer just came in here and blew me away.'' It was a good vote of confidence. But on the other hand, I was like, 'How the hell don't you know who I am?'"
