Joe Nichols took the roundabout way to country success, scoring his
first major hit six years after landing his initial record deal. A
native of Rogers, AR, Nichols grew up watching his father play bass in a
local country band. He himself played in a rock band during his teenage
years but soon came back to country and after high school took a night
job as a DJ while supporting himself as a mechanic by day. He met
producer Randy Edwards at the latter job, and under Edwards' guidance,
he performed regularly and worked on his songwriting. He landed a record
deal with Intersound and released his self-titled debut in 1996,
naturally with Edwards producing. The single "Six of One, Half a Dozen
(Of the Other)" was a minor hit, but the album didn't sell particularly
well. It did manage to earn Nichols a shot with Warner Bros., but a
series of label mergers left him out in the cold, and he worked a series
of day jobs around Nashville while looking for a new deal. In 2000, he
struck up a songwriting partnership with session guitarist Brent Rowan,
and two years later he signed with Universal. His label debut, Man with
a Memory, was released in 2002, and its lead single, the ballad "The
Impossible," went to number three on the country charts, also crossing
over to the pop Top 30. In the wake of its success, his first album was
reissued under the title Six of One, Half Dozen of the Other.
Another single from Man with a Memory, "Brokenheartsville," became his
first number one country hit in early 2003, and it helped send the album
into the country Top Ten. The accolades were suddenly flying fast and
furious. The Academy of Country Music named Nichols its Top New Male
Vocalist, he garnered three Grammy nominations, and Billboard declared
"The Impossible the tenth most-played song in 2003. Nichols and his band
toured with Alan Jackson through August of that year, and saw the single
"She Only Smokes When She Drinks" enjoy similar success at country
radio. In September, the buzz around Nichols continued with a Horizon
new artist award nomination from the Country Music Association. His
second disc for Universal South, Revelation, and a holiday album,
Traditional Christmas, were released in 2004, followed by the Top Ten
hit III in 2005. His next record, Real Things, hit the shelves in 2007
and focused primarily on tender country ballads with a spattering of
uptempo jams. Old Things New followed two years later in 2009.
