Sept. 6: Country music singer Mark Chesnutt is 50-years-old today.


Born in Beaumont, Texas, Mark Nelson Chesnutt recorded his first album, Doing My Country Thing in the late 1980s. His big breakthrough came in 1990 with the single "Too Cold at Home," the first single from his second album, which had the same name as the single.


Chesnutt has charted more than thirty singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including eight Number One records. He has also released eleven albums and one of his Greatest Hits. His first three albums — Too Cold at Home (1990), Longnecks & Short Stories (1992), and Almost Goodbye (1993) — and his 1996 Greatest Hits album have all achieved RIAA platinum certification in the United States, while 1994's What a Way to Live was certified gold.

His most recent album, Rollin' with the Flow, was released on June 24, 2008. Its title track and lead-off single was a cover of Charlie Rich's hit single from 1977.
