Paisley has a bit more going for him than your average Nashville molded hunk-in-a-hat. Before moving to Nashville, Paisely was a teenage phenomenon in his native West Virginia. As he led a country band, Paisley sang in a mature voice and played wicked, Bakersfield Country-influenced lead guitar. When he got to Nashville, he quickly nailed a publishing deal, which in turn led to a recording contract. Paisley wrote or co-wrote every song and played lead guitar on his debut Who Needs Pictures. Since its 1999 release, the disc has gone multi-platinum and Paisley has ascended to the upper reaches of the New Country firmament.
