About Trace Adkins
Tracy Darrell Adkins was born on January 13, 1962 and is an American country singer and actor with an estimated net worth of $20 million. Adkins made his debut in 1996 with the album “Dreamin’ Out Loud“, released on Capitol Records Nashville. Since then, Adkins has released ten more studio albums and two Greatest Hits compilations. In addition, he has charted more than 20 singles on the Billboard country music charts, including the Number One hits “(This Ain’t) No Thinkin’ Thing“, “Ladies Love Country Boys“, and “You’re Gonna Miss This“, which peaked in 1997, 2007, and 2008, respectively.
“They know who I am, where I come from, what I’m about. I go out there and it is what it is. If I feel like doing something, I do it. If I feel like saying something, I say it. If I feel like dancing, I do. If I don’t, I don’t.”
After graduating high school, Adkins went to work on an oil rig. While on the job, he was trying to open a bucket but instead ended up slicing his finger off. When the doctor reattached it, Trace asked that it be done so that he would still be able to play guitar.
After having almost lost it all, Trace made his way to Nashville in the early 1990s. He played at various honky tonks which is how A Capitol Records exec saw him at one of his shows and signed him to a record deal.
Trace released his debut album, Dreaming Out Loud, in 1996. The first single, “There’s A Girl in Texas,” peaked at No. 20. Three additional singles were released: “Every Light in the House” (No. 3), “I Left Something Turned On At Home” (No. 2), and his first No. 1, “(This Ain’t No) Thinkin’ Thing.” The album gave Trace a platinum record.
After the strong singles of his first album, he had less success with his second and third albums, Big Time and More.
In 2001, Trace released Chrome, which earned him three Top 20 singles, with “I’m Tryin'” (No. 6), “Help Me Understand” (No. 17), and the title cut, which peaked at No. 10.
In 2003, Trace released Greatest Hits, Vol. 1. The year also saw the release of Comin’ On Strong.

Songs About Me was released in 2005, with the hit single, “Arlington.” The next song to be released from the album was a total 180 in content. That song was “Honky Tonk Badonkadonk,” which climbed all the way to No. 2, and even reached No. 30 on the Pop charts.
In 2006, Trace released his seventh studio album, Dangerous Man. It was from this album that Trace earned his second No. 1 song, with “Ladies Love Country Boys.”

In 2008, Trace agreed to do Celebrity Apprentice, with his charity being the Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network. He made it to the number two position on the show, but Donald Trump decided to hire Piers Morgan, instead.
