Lee Ann Womack (; born August 19, 1966) is an American singer and songwriter. She has charted 23 times on the American Billboard Hot Country Songs charts; her highest peaking single there is her crossover signature song, "I Hope You Dance", a collaboration with country band Sons of the Desert which reached number one in 2000. Five of her singles made top 10 on the country music charts of the defunct RPM magazine in Canada. Born in Jacksonville, Texas, Womack was signed by Decca Records Nashville in 1996. When she emerged as a contemporary country artist in 1997, her material drew critical comparisons to Dolly Parton and Tammy Wynette, except for the way Womack's music mixed an old-fashioned style with contemporary elements. That year, she had her first top 10 hits with "The Fool" and "You've Got to Talk to Me". After two albums with Decca, she released her first MCA Nashville album, 2000's I Hope You Dance; it had an entirely different sound, using pop music elements instead of traditional country. It was not until the release of There's More Where That Came From in 2005 that Womack returned to recording traditional country music. She recorded a total of five albums with MCA before releasing a series of independent albums, first on Sugar Hill Records and then on ATO Records; these albums include a new sound which blended country and Americana. Four of Womack's studio albums have received a Gold certification or higher by the Recording Industry Association of America, with her most commercially successful album I Hope You Dance being certified triple-platinum in the United States and platinum in Canada. In addition, she has received five Academy of Country Music Awards, six Country Music Association Awards, and one Grammy Award. Womack is married to record producer Frank Liddell,...
