Clint Black Bio
A country music traditionalist from Texas, Clint Black was one of the first artists to kick-start the mass-market popularity of country in the ’90s. Black is also one of the first artists of a generation that was equally inspired by rock-oriented pop — like ’70s singer/songwriters and ’60s rock & roll — as well as country artists like Merle Haggard, Bob Wills, and George Jones.
Black was born in New Jersey but raised in Katy, Texas, a suburb of Houston. As a child, he listened to both country and rock & roll, but he didn’t begin playing guitar until the age of 13, when he started playing harmonica. Two years later, he began writing songs, as well as performing in his brother Kevin’s band, where he played bass and sang. In the early ’80s, he began busking on the streets of Katy, eventually working his way into coffee houses, bars, and nightclubs.
Black released his second album, Put Yourself in My Shoes, in 1990. Like the debut, Put Yourself in My Shoes was a major success. It spawned four Top Ten hits (“Put Yourself in My Shoes,” “One More Payment,” and the number ones “Loving Blind” and “Where Are You Now”), selling over two-million copies, and peaking at number 18 on the pop charts. Throughout 1990, Black was on tour with Alabama and appearing on television shows across the country. In 1991, several singles from Put Yourself in My Shoes charted, and he was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry. On New Year’s Eve of 1991, he married the actress Lisa Hartman.
In the summer of 1992, Black released his third album, The Hard Way. It received numerous positive reviews and became an immediate hit, peaking at number two on the country charts and crossing over into the pop Top Ten. The first single from the album, “We Tell Ourselves,” reached number one that summer, and two further songs reached the country Top Ten (“Burn One Down” and “When My Ship Comes In”). Black began a lengthy world tour in June of 1992.
Released in 1993, No Time to Kill, his fourth album, went platinum and spawned the number one country hit “A Good Run of Bad Luck” (also featured in the 1994 film Maverick). Four other singles reached the country Top Ten: “A Bad Goodbye” (featuring Wynonna Judd), “No Time to Kill,” “State of Mind,” and “Half the Man.” During the fall of 1994, Black released his fifth album, One Emotion, which also featured a parade of Top Ten hits (including the number one “Summer’s Comin'”). It was followed a year later by the seasonal effort Looking for Christmas. After a two-year hiatus, Nothin’ But the Taillights appeared; both the title track and “The Shoes You’re Wearing” became country chart-toppers. Just before the end of the millennium, in 1999, Black celebrated a decade of recording with D’Lectrified. Several hits collections followed into the new millennium.
Black continued writing songs on his own and in collaboration with a host of others, including Steve Wariner, Frank Nicholas, and Bill Anderson. He formed his own label, Blacktop Records (no relation to his former company), and entered into a partnership with Thirty Tigers. In early 2015, he began working on a new project at his home studio in Nashville and at various others in California. The finished product was entitled On Purpose. It featured guest spots from Big & Rich and wife Lisa H.

How do I hire Clint Black for a private event, corporate event, nonprofit gala or convention?
To hire Clint Black for a private or corporate performance, the event buyer must first determine whether the artist is available and interested in the proposed engagement and then submit an offer through the appropriate authorized representative. The offer typically includes the event date and location, type of event, proposed performance format and fee.
Celebrity Direct represents event buyers throughout this process, including availability inquiries, offer strategy, negotiation, contracting, rider review and production coordination.
How much does it cost to hire Clint Black for a private or corporate event?
There is no single published fee to hire Clint Black for a private or corporate event. The performance fee is negotiated for the specific engagement and can vary based on the date, location, event type, performance format, travel requirements, current touring activity and other circumstances surrounding the event.
Celebrity Direct can obtain current availability and pricing from the appropriate artist representative for a specific event.
What total budget should I expect when hiring Clint Black?
The total cost of presenting Clint Black can be higher than the negotiated artist performance fee. Depending on the engagement, additional expenses can include airfare or private aviation, hotels, local transportation, sound, lighting, staging, backline, labor, hospitality and other requirements contained in the artist’s rider.
For this reason, event buyers should evaluate the all-in cost of the performance, not simply the artist fee, before making an offer.
How can I find out if Clint Black is available for my event date?
Clint Black’s availability for a private or corporate event must be confirmed through the appropriate authorized representative. Availability can depend on touring and recording commitments, personal scheduling, event location, travel requirements and whether the artist is interested in the particular engagement.
Celebrity Direct can submit the event details, check availability and determine whether an offer is appropriate.
How do I contact Clint Black’s booking agent about a private performance?
A corporate, nonprofit or private-event buyer generally does not need to locate Clint Black’s booking agent personally. An experienced talent buyer can identify the appropriate authorized representative, present the event professionally and manage the inquiry and offer process on the buyer’s behalf.
Celebrity Direct handles this process for its clients and represents the event buyer rather than the artist.
How do I contact Clint Black’s manager about hiring them for an event?
Artist management is not necessarily the appropriate first contact for negotiating a private performance. Celebrity engagements are generally handled through the artist’s authorized booking representation, management or another designated representative depending on the circumstances.
Celebrity Direct determines the appropriate contact for the proposed engagement and handles the communication and negotiation for the event buyer.
Will Clint Black perform at a corporate event, convention, nonprofit gala or private party?
Whether Clint Black will consider a particular private or corporate performance depends on their availability, the nature and location of the event, the proposed performance, the financial offer and artist approval. Celebrity artists are not simply available for every event at a published price.
A legitimate inquiry should therefore include enough information about the event for the artist’s representatives to evaluate the opportunity.
What information do I need before asking about hiring Clint Black?
Before requesting availability or pricing for Clint Black, an event buyer should ideally know the event date, city and venue, type of event, expected attendance, desired performance format and approximate entertainment budget.
Providing these details allows the artist’s representatives to evaluate the engagement and allows an experienced talent buyer to recommend the most effective offer strategy.
Does the quoted artist fee include travel and production?
Usually, the artist’s performance fee should not be assumed to represent the complete cost of the engagement. Travel, hotels, ground transportation, production, equipment, labor and hospitality requirements may be additional obligations of the buyer depending on the negotiated contract and rider.
The contract and rider should be reviewed before the event buyer determines the final entertainment budget.
Can Celebrity Direct handle the complete Clint Black booking and production process?
Celebrity Direct can represent the event buyer throughout a celebrity entertainment engagement, including determining availability, developing the offer, negotiating with the artist’s authorized representative, reviewing contracts and riders, coordinating production requirements and assisting with the performance through event day.
Unlike an artist’s agent or manager, Celebrity Direct works on the buyer’s side of the transaction, helping the event planner understand the financial, contractual and production obligations involved in presenting celebrity talent.
