Информация о артисте

Американский автор и исполнитель песен в стиле кантри Дуайт Дэвид Йокам родился 23 октября 1956 года. Популярный в 1980-х, он записал свыше 20 альбомов и компиляций. Музыкальный журнал «Billboard» занёс более 30 песен Йокама в чарты самых популярных песен кантри – «Hot Country Songs».

Йокам родился в городе Пикевиль, Кентукки, в семье Рут Энн и Дэвида Йокама, владельца бензозаправочной станции. Детство Дуайта прошло в городе Колумбус, Огайо, где он жил вместе с матерью и отчимом, который служил «белым воротничком».

9 июня 1974 года он окончил старшую школу Нортленд в Колумбусе. На протяжении школьных лет Йокам прекрасно проявил себя в музыке и драматургии. Он постоянно получал главные роли в школьных пьесах, а оттачиванием его способностей занимались такие преподаватели, как Джерри МакАфи (музыка) и Чарльз Льюис (актёрское мастерство). В свободное от занятий время Йокам пел и играл на гитаре с местными «гаражными» группами.

Когда Йокам стоял в начале своей музыкальной карьеры, весь Нэшвилл слушал музыку группы «Urban Cowboy», а группа Дуайта со своим стилем хонки-тонк не пользовалась ни успехом, ни интересом публики.

Не получив никаких возможностей продвигаться в Нэшвилле, Йокам переехал в Лос-Анджелес. Объединив усилия с ведущим гитаристом и продюсером Питом Андерсоном в 1980-х годах, Йокам продолжил нести традиционный хонки-тонк, или, как он сам называл этот стиль, «хиллбилл», в массы. Дебютом Дуайта стала запись одной из его компиляций для альбома 1984 года «A Town South of Bakersfield». Это был сборник альбомов исполнителей направления нью-кантри, автором идеи и продюсером которого выступил Пит Андерсон.

Далее последовал альбом Йокама, в который вошли исключительно его композиции. Это была пластинка «E.P.», записанная с лейблом «Oak Records». Позднее список треков пополнился, и альбом был перезаписан снова.

В 1986 году вышла пластинка, которую можно считать главным и полноценным дебютом Йокама - «Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Etc.». Именно этот альбом ознаменовал прорыв в карьере музыканта. Хитовыми синглами стали «Honky Tonk Man» и ремейк на песню Джона Хортона «Guitars, Cadillacs».

Следующая пластинка Дуайта, «Hillbilly Deluxe», продолжила успех предыдущей, а затем музыкант выпустил очередной альбом - «Buenas Noches From a Lonely Room» - в котором первую композицию, «Streets of Bakersfield», Йокам исполнил вместе со своим кумиром Баком Оуэнсом. В 1990-х вышла новая пластинка музыканта «If There Was a Way», вновь ставшая бестселлером.

В начале 2000-х годов Йокам разместил в сети Интернет акустическую версию многих своих хитов, записанных сольно. Также он прекратил работать со студией, на которой он записал большинство пластинок, и создал свой собственный лейбл. Последними его альбомами, состоящими из абсолютно новых песен, стали «Blame the Vain» (2005) и диск, посвящённый Баку Оуэнсу - «Dwight Sings Buck» (2007). Read more on Last.fm.

Dwight David Yoakam (born October 23, 1956) is an American singer-songwriter, actor and film director, most famous for his pioneering country music. Popular since the early 1980s, he has recorded more than 21 albums and compilations, charted more than 30 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, and sold more than 25 million records. Yoakam has recorded 5 Billboard #1 Albums, 12 Gold Albums, and 9 Platinum Albums, including the Triple Platinum This Time. In addition to his many achievements in the performing arts, Yoakam is also the most frequent musical guest in the history of The Tonight Show.

Yoakam was born in Pikeville, Kentucky, the son of Ruth Ann, a key-punch operator, and David Yoakam, a gas-station owner. He was raised in Columbus, Ohio. He graduated from Columbus's Northland High School in 1974. During his high school years, he excelled in both music and drama, regularly securing the lead role in school plays, such as "Charlie" in a stage version of Flowers for Algernon, honing his skills under the guidance of teacher-mentors Jerry McAfee (music) and Charles Lewis (drama). Outside of school, Yoakam sang and played guitar with local garage bands, and entertained his friends and classmates with his impersonations, such as Richard Nixon, who, at the time, was heavily embroiled in the Watergate controversy.

Yoakam briefly attended Ohio State University, but dropped out and moved to Nashville in 1977 with the intent of becoming a recording artist. Later on, Ohio Valley University in Parkersburg, West Virginia awarded and presented Dwight with an honorary doctorate degree on May 7, 2005.

When he began his career, Nashville was oriented toward pop "urban cowboy" music, and Yoakam's brand of hip honky tonk music was not considered marketable.

Not making much headway in Nashville, Yoakam moved to Los Angeles and worked towards bringing his particular brand of new Honky Tonk or "Hillbilly" music (as he called it) forward into the 1980s. Writing all his own songs, and continuing to perform mostly outside traditional country music channels, Yoakam did many shows in rock and punk rock clubs around Los Angeles, playing with roots rock or punk rock acts like The Blasters (Yoakam scored a small video hit with his version of their song "Long White Cadillac"), Los Lobos, and X. This helped him diversify his audience beyond the typical country music fans, and his authentic, groundbreaking music is often credited with rock audiences accepting country music.

Yoakam's recording debut was the self-financed EP Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Etc. on independent label Oak Records produced by lead-guitarist Pete Anderson; this was later re-released by Reprise records, with several additional tracks, as his major-label debut LP, 1986's Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Etc.. It launched his career. "Honky Tonk Man", a remake of the Johnny Horton song, and "Guitars, Cadillacs" were hit singles. His stylish video "Honky Tonk Man" was the first country music video ever played on MTV. The follow-up LP, Hillbilly Deluxe, was just as successful. His third LP, Buenas Noches from a Lonely Room, included his first No. 1, a duet with his musical idol, Buck Owens, on "Streets of Bakersfield". 1990's If There Was a Way was another best-seller.

Yoakam's song "Readin', Rightin', Route 23" pays tribute to his childhood move from Kentucky, and is named after a local expression describing the route that rural Kentuckians took to find a job outside of the coal mines. (U.S. Route 23 runs north from Kentucky through Columbus and Toledo, Ohio and through the automotive centers of Michigan.) Rather than the standard line that their elementary schools taught "the three Rs" of "Readin', 'Ritin', and 'Rithmetic", Kentuckians used to say that the three Rs they learned were "Readin', 'Ritin, and Route 23 North".

Johnny Cash once cited Yoakam as his favorite country singer. Chris Isaak called him as good a songwriter that ever put a pen to paper. Time Magazine dubbed Yoakam "A Renaissance Man" and Vanity Fair declared that "Yoakam strides the divide between rock's lust and country's lament." Along with his bluegrass and honky-tonk roots, Yoakam has written or covered many Elvis Presley-style rockabilly songs, including his covers of Queen's "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" in 1999 and Presley's "Suspicious Minds" in 1992. He recorded a cover of The Clash's "Train in Vain" in 1997, a cover of the Grateful Dead song "Truckin'", as well as Cheap Trick's "I Want You to Want Me". Yoakam has never been associated only with Country music; on many early tours, he played with Hardcore Punk bands like Hüsker Dü, and played many shows around Los Angeles with Roots/Punk/Rock & Roll acts. His middle-period-to-later records saw him branching out to different styles, covering Rock & Roll, Punk, 1960's, Blues-based "Boogie" like ZZ Top, and writing more adventurous songs like "A Thousand Miles From Nowhere". In 2003, he provided background vocals on Warren Zevon's last album The Wind.

In the 21st century, Yoakam released dwightyoakamacoustic.net, an album featuring solo acoustic versions of many of his hits; left his major label and started his own label.

2005 saw the release of Yoakam's well-reviewed album Blame the Vain, on New West Records. Yoakam also released an album dedicated to Buck Owens, Dwight Sings Buck, on October 23, 2007. His duet with Michelle Branch, a song titled "Long Goodbye", was released as a free download on Branch's official website in early 2011.

In July 2011, Yoakam re-signed with Warner Bros. Nashville and announced plans to release a new album. 3 Pears was released on September 18, 2012 with twelve new tracks. The album, produced by Yoakam, includes collaborations with Kid Rock, Beck, and Ashley Monroe. 3 Pears was released to resounding critical acclaim and earned Yoakam the highest-charting debut of his career on the Billboard 200 and Billboard Country Albums charts. 3 Pears reached #1 on the Americana Radio chart on October 29, 2012 and went on to break the 2012 record for most weeks at #1 on Americana Radio.[4] By the end of 2012, the album was named on annual best of lists by NPR, Rolling Stone, American Songwriter, AOL's The Boot, Entertainment Weekly, The Village Voice, and Rhapsody, and has been included in more critic's "best of 2012" lists than any other artist in the country genre.

Yoakam won the Grammy Award for "Best Male Country Vocal Performance" in 1993 for the song "Ain't That Lonely Yet". He was also named "Artist of the Year" by CMT Europe in 1993 and given the International Touring Artist Award by CMA in 2007.

In 2011, Yoakam received the Cliffie Stone Pioneer Award for his trailblazing achievements in the country music genre. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
