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 remembers playing his music at the Civic Center with his band right after the sporting events he attended had ended. Sonny went on to play professional baseball, but soon had to decide between the two careers 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. In 2001, Music City Records and Producer Kerry Kurt Phillips released “When In Texas” which seemed to crystallize all the hope and potential Cleburne had seen in its favorite son for years. It notched four top 10 singles in the key Texas music charts and brought him the first opportunities to play venues such as the Grand Old Opry, Nashville's Fan Fair/CMA Music Festival, The Wildhorse Saloon in Nashville & Orlando and Sonny made his national television debut on "Crook & Chase". If it wasn't the yellow brick road, it was an important stepping stone. Sonny Burgess went back to Nashville to his first Producer, Mr. Kerry Kurt Phillips of “When In Texas” to produce his new CD. Sonny and Kerry Kurt had been friends and wrote songs together before his first CD “When In Texas”. They have always had a very good working relationship. Mr. Phillips knows just what to say to Sonny to get the best performance from him. Sonny Burgess’s new single release “The Request” from the CD “Have You Got A Song Like That”, is now climbing the Texas Country Charts. Mr. Phillips thinks this will be the very best of Sonny Burgess.
