個人經歷
George Strait於52年5月1 8日出生於德克薩斯州的普迪特(Poteet),是80年代最有影響的鄉村歌手之一。
George Strait從小在父親的牧場裡長大,有時幫父親做些傳籬笆、放牲口等工作。十幾歲時,他就開始玩音樂。1年,George Strait應徵入伍,3年駐紮在夏威夷。基地司令員想建立一支軍隊鄉村樂隊,這件事吸引了George Strait,他買了一把便宜的吉他,開始模仿漢克·威廉士的唱片,並給樂隊起了個名字叫浪漫鄉村樂隊(Rambling Country),常在營地外進行演出。
5年他回到家鄉,為了滿足父親的期望,進了西南德克薩斯州綜合大學(Sounthwest Tesxas university),在攻讀農學學位的同時,他組織了一支樂隊。9年,他在MCA唱片公司錄製了他的第一張專輯。此後,George Strait長期占據排榜上的高位,將近30次榮登榜首。到了90年代,許多歌手(包括加斯·布魯克斯)都把他當作榜樣。George Strait不願露面,比其他著名歌手接受採訪要少得多,但在92年,他參加了電影《樂韻情緣》(Pure Country)的演出,這部電影中的四首歌曲上榜,使George Strait站到了鄉村樂壇的前列。
George Strait成了鄉村音樂中的焦點人物。他的事業仍在不斷地發展,但他現在每年只花半年的時間去錄製唱片和巡迴演出,而其餘的時間他則隱居在德克薩斯的家鄉,騎馬、爬山、和家人共度美好時光。
演藝經歷
1952年5月18日,George Strait出生在美國Texas州的Pearsall。20歲時,George Strait與Norma步入了婚姻的殿堂。在夏威夷,George Strait進入軍隊服役。在軍隊中,George Strait開始和一支名叫Rambling Country的樂隊一起為自己的戰友們演出。1975年,George Strait離開了軍隊,他回到Texas,決定完成自己的學業。George Strait在西南德克薩斯州立大學拿到了自己的農業學位,在此學習期間,他還創建了自己的鄉村樂隊Ace in the Hole。Ace in the Hole樂隊出版過幾張唱片,但沒有什麼反響。之後,George嘗試個人發展。1979年,George Strait認識了以前曾在MCA唱片公司工作過的Erv Woolsey。 Woolsey讓MCA唱片公司的一些管理人員來德克薩斯聽了George Strait的演唱,他的出色表現使自己成功簽約。2011年8月他又發行了新專輯here for a good time
