Country music legend T.G. Sheppard is celebrating an impressive 50-year career in the industry. Recognized by Billboard Magazine as one of the top 100 country artists of all time, Sheppard’s journey began with his first #1 hit, “Devil In The Bottle,” released in October 1974. The song rapidly ascended the charts, claiming the top position on the U.S. country singles chart for one week and staying on the charts for a remarkable ten weeks. This success set the stage for Sheppard’s extraordinary career, which boasts 22 #1 hits, including classics like “Last Cheater’s Waltz,” “I’ll Be Coming Back for More,” “Do You Want to Go to Heaven,” and “Party Time.”
Reflecting on his journey, Sheppard stated, “Over 50 years ago, I had no idea the career journey I started would still be going strong today. It’s been the most incredible and rewarding trip, and I’m happy to say the highs have far outweighed the lows. I still have to pinch myself to make sure this isn’t just a dream. Every day, I thank God and the fans for blessing me with such an amazing life and allowing me to continue doing what I love.”
As part of the celebration, Sheppard invites fans to join him on his 50th Anniversary Tour, where they can sing along to his many #1 hits. “I am humbled beyond words,” he added.
