Sonny Burgess
was born in Texas and raised in the small town
of Cleburne, Texas. Sonny grew up listening to
the traditional country music songs of Hank
Williams, Chet Atkins, Roy Clark and Glen
Campbell. These Country Stars had a big
influence on Sonny’s music. Sonny soon found out
at an early age that he loved the stage and had
a natural ability to play and sing to an
audience. From his first performance on stage in
the second grade, Sonny knew he was destined to
be a Traditional Country Music Artist.
During high
school, Sonny excelled in Sports. From
playing as quarterback in football to
the pitcher on the baseball team. Sonny
enjoyed performing for everyone whether
it was Sports or Country Music. Sonny
went on to play professional baseball,
but soon had to decide between the two
career’s he loved, Baseball or Country
Music.
Thank goodness he chose Country
Music or we would not have such CD’s as, “When
In Texas”, “Stronger”, and his New Release CD,
“Have You Got A Song Like That”, on Red River
Records coming out in January 2009.
