Terri Clark life and biography

Terri Clark was born on Aug. 5, 1968, in Montreal and was raised in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada. She moved to Nashville at age 18 and paid her dues by playing at Tootsie's Orchid Lounge, the famous honky-tonk bar across the alley from the Ryman Auditorium.

After signing to Mercury Records, she reached No. 3 in 1995 with her first single, "Better Things to Do." She followed it with several Top 10 hits, including "When Boy Meets Girl," "If I Were You," "Emotional Girl," "Now That I Found You" and a remake of "Poor Poor Pitiful Me." Clark hit No. 1 in 1998 with "You're Easy on the Eyes" and again in 2004 with "Girls Lie Too." She released Greatest Hits: 1994-2004 in 2004 and parted ways with Mercury after releasing Life Goes On in 2005. She later signed with BNA Records and charted three singles before asking to be released from her contract with the label.

Though she lives in Nashville, Clark is a seven-time winner of the Canadian County Music Association Fans' Choice Entertainer of the Year award.

Clark plans the independent release of a new album, The Long Way Home, in September 2009.
