Pam Tillis

Pamela Yvonne (Pam) Tillis (born July 24, 1957 in Plant City, Florida) is an American country music singer-songwriter and actress. She is the daughter of country music legend Mel Tillis.

 

Originally a demo singer in Nashville, Tennessee, Pam was signed to Warner Bros. Records in 1981, with nine singles and a studio album being released in the 1980s. She later found work as a staff songwriter for Tree Publishing. By 1991, she had signed to Arista Records; that year, she reached Top 5 on the Billboard country charts with "Don't Tell Me What to Do", the first of five singles from her second album, Put Yourself in My Place, which was certified gold by the RIAA.

 

Between 1991 and the present, Tillis has charted more than thirty singles on the U.S. Billboard country charts, including her only Number One single, 1995's "Mi Vida Loca (My Crazy Life)". She has also released ten albums overall (nine studio albums plus a Greatest Hits compilation), with three platinum and two gold certifications. She has also founded her own label, Stellar Cat Records.

 

She caught on at Epic's roots subsidiary Lucky Dog and debuted for them in 2002 with It's All Relative: Tillis Sings Tillis, a collection of her father's material that finally found her embracing his legacy on her own terms. RhineStoned appeared in 2007 from Stellar Cat Records.[3]  Tillis began her own label, Stellar Cat Records, in 2007. Her first album, RhineStoned, was released in April of that year. Her second album on the label, Just in Time for Christmas, was released on November 13, 2007. Two singles from the album were released that failed to chart the Hot Country Songs list in 2007.

Tillis earned thirteen top ten hits on the country music charts and in 1994 was named the Country Music Association "Female Vocalist of the Year." In 1999, she earned a Grammy Award for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals.

 

Tillis ranked #30 on CMT's 40 Greatest Women of Country Music in 2002.

 

Wounded Bird reissued Tillis' 1983 debut album on CD on June 9, 2009.

 

In 2010, Pam will be releasing a health cookbook and a new album which features re-recorded versions of many hit singles from the early to late 90's.
