When
Sammy Kershaw burst upon the country music scene in 1991 with the
infectious and rambunctious "Cadillac Style," music critics,
the country audience and industry took quick notice of this dynamo from Southern
Louisiana. A fresh, unique and authentic powerhouse, he was quickly declared the future of
country music.
 Multi-platinum albums later, the Cajun country superstar has established
an indelible presence in the industry he took by storm. From the slyly seductive "Don't Go Near the Water" and plaintive "Yard
Sale" to the engaging "She Don't Know She's Beautiful"
and buoyant "Vidalia," Sammy has forged his own path to the
future by demonstrating that an artist can evolve while staying true to his own vision.
With the completion of "Labor of Love," his sixth album for Mercury
Records Nashville, he has elevated his artistry to a more profound level. Although the
blue collar rascal and honky tonk charmer still exists on "Labor of Love," the textured layers of Kershaw's
voice unfold in thoughtful measures, allowing us insight into a more introspective and
heartfelt artist.
Sammy's ability to ascend to dramatic, emotional heights has been
fashioned by the rocky road he has navigated in his lifetime. He was born in the heart of
Cajun country and his mother soothed him to sleep with the music of Hank Williams, Sr.,
thereby creating his lifelong affinity with music.
A rough childhood, his father's tragic death when Sammy was 11, broken
marriages and a devastating stint with drugs and alcohol have formed a man of intriguing
complexity and an artist who has no peer. He has been there, done that – and lived to
sing the story.
