Chris Cagle Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Chris Cagle (born November 10, 1968) is a country music singer and songwriter who was born in DeRidder, Louisiana and raised in Baytown, Texas. After graduating from Robert E. Lee High School in Baytown, Texas, he attended The University of Texas at Arlington for a short time, but dropped out to pursue a musical career. He moved to Nashville in 1994 and worked a number of odd jobs to support himself while trying to land a recording contract. After years of toiling, he was signed to a record deal. His first single, 'My Love Goes On And On', was a chart hit. He also covered the Lynyrd Skynyrd song "Don't Ask Me No Questions" for the soundtrack of the first Blue Collar Comedy Tour movie, as well as performing it with the four comedians over the closing credits of the movie. Cagle was married in 2001, but the marriage ended in divorce a short time later. On October 3, 2005 he announced on his web site that he was not the biological father of the baby his then-girlfriend had. In early 2004, Cagle was diagnosed with multiple anomalies on his vocal cords, including: a polyp, a lesion, a cyst and a granuloma. The diagnosis forced Cagle to cancel nearly 20 appearances that year, including opening for Rascal Flatts' new tour. Cagle was ordered 60 days of vocal rest, although CMT reported that he did not sing for nearly three months after the diagnosis. Cagle is rarely seen without a hat, typically a cowboy hat or a baseball cap. In 2005, Cagle was initiated by the Missouri Theta chapter of Phi Delta Theta fraternity at Northwest Missouri State University before a scheduled concert on campus. Cagle did an interview for Playgirl Magazine in the July 2006 issue. In August 2006, a Nashville judge ordered Cagle to pay some $737,000 to former manager Mark Hybner, whom Cagle had sued in 2004 in an effort to void management and publishing deals he had signed in 1999. Cagle has filed a notice that he intends to appeal the judgment.
