Brad Paisley Biography

Born Oct. 28, 1972, in the tiny Ohio River town of Glen Dale, W.Va., Brad Paisley seemed destined for a life of music. "My earliest memory," he says, "is of running down the road to my grandfather's house. He was a railroad worker who worked the night shift. So he'd be at home all afternoon playing guitar. I'd go down there and spend the day watching him play. He loved Chet Atkins and Merle Travis and Les Paul. And he'd play everything from 'Under the Double Eagle' to 'Wildwood Flower' to 'Shortenin' Bread.'" When Paisley was 8, his grandfather gave him his first guitar -- a Sears Danelectro Silvertone with an amp in the case. By the age of 10, Brad Paisley was playing well enough to accompany himself. He soon began singing in church and at civic meetings for the Lion's Club and the Fraternal Order of Elks. Next, he formed his first band, Brad Paisley & the C-Notes, with his guitar instructor, local musician Clarence "Hank" Goddard. At 12, Brad Paisley wrote his first song, "Born on Christmas Day." His junior high school principal heard it and asked him to do it at the next Rotary Club meeting. In the audience that day was Tom Miller, program director for WWVA, Wheeling's country radio powerhouse. Miller was so impressed by the performance that he invited Paisley to make a guest appearance on Jamboree USA, the station's legendary Saturday night show. Brad Paisley was ecstatic, and his performance went over so well that he was asked to become a Jamboree regular. During his eight years on the show, he opened for such country luminaries -- and personal favorites -- as Roy Clark, Jack Greene and Little Jimmy Dickens.
