Deana Carter

Deana Carter, an American country music singer-songwriter, made her recording breakthrough in 1996 with the album Did I Shave My Legs for This? The record was certified 5× Multi-Platinum in the United States and produced three Number One country hits, Strawberry Wine, We Danced Anyway, and How Do I Get There. Her early break came after Willie Nelson heard a demo and invited her to perform at Farm Aid VII in 1994 as the only female soloist, which helped lead to a Capitol Records contract. Later albums included Everything's Gonna Be Alright, I'm Just a Girl, The Story of My Life, and The Chain, a covers record. She received a Top New Female Vocalist nomination at the 1997 Academy of Country Music Awards and recorded Once Upon a December for the Anastasia soundtrack. In 2013 she formed Little Nugget Records and released Southern Way of Life.
