Jo Dee Messina Biography
Jo Dee Messina is a country music singer and songwriter known for her vocal style and chart-topping hits in the country music industry. Messina began her career with the single "Heads Carolina, Tails California," which established her presence in the country music scene. Her debut album, co-produced by Tim McGraw, included the singles "Heads Carolina, Tails California" and "You're Not in Kansas Anymore." She has sold more than 5 million records worldwide.
Messina's second album, "I'm Alright," produced five top-10 country hits and sold over a million copies in the United States. She became the first female country artist to achieve three multiple-week number-one songs from the same album on the Billboard country album chart. Her third studio album, "Burn," featured the lead single "That's the Way," which reached number one on the Billboard Country Chart and became her highest-charting single on the Billboard Hot 100. Her fifth studio album, "Delicious Surprise," debuted at number one on the Billboard country albums chart, and its lead single, "My Give a Damn's Busted," became her sixth number-one single on the Billboard country songs chart.
Messina has received recognition from the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music, and has been nominated for two Grammy Awards. Her accolades include an Academy of Country Music Award, a Billboard Magazine Award, three Boston Music Awards, and a Country Music Association Award. She also received the Billboard Most Played Female at Country Radio award. Messina holds two platinum and three gold-certified albums by the RIAA.
During her battle with breast cancer, Messina's faith influenced her songwriting, leading to the release of "Reckless Love," a song with a Christian message. After treatment, she resumed touring and recording, maintaining her presence as a concert performer. Messina continues to share her music, including hit singles, unreleased songs, worship music, and personal stories, with audiences across the country.
Messina experienced renewed attention following the release of Cole Swindell's song "She Had Me at Heads Carolina," which references her debut hit and introduced her work to a new generation of country music fans.
