Mark Chesnutt at GMA

Mark Nelson Chesnutt is an American country music singer-songwriter known for neotraditional and honky-tonk style. Rising to fame in the 1990s with MCA Nashville, he scored 20 top-ten Billboard country hits, including eight No.1s such as “Brother Jukebox” and “It Sure Is Monday.” With over 12 million albums sold and a CMA Horizon Award, he remains a touring mainstay, overcoming serious health and sobriety challenges to launch his 2025-26 Redemption Tour.

Dubbed as one of the “most reliable country artists” (Craig Shelburne/CMT.com), Chesnutt does not disappoint. He is masterful in his natural ability to let his voice shape the words to create a moving musical motion picture (reminiscent of traditional country music standards such as Charlie Rich’s “Behind Closed Doors” and

Vern Gosdin’s “Is It Raining At Your House”) and his current single, entitled “When The Lights Go Out (Tracie’s Song)” is the very essence of Chesnutt’s musical fiber as an autobiographical reflection of his life and loves–country music and his wife, Tracie.
