It is uncommon for a country music star to be born in Nashville, Tennessee. Most of them migrate to Music City to make their country music dreams come true. However, a handful of country stars were born in Nashville, and a few more come from the great state of Tennessee.

Garth, Reba, Blake Shelton, and Carrie Underwood are from Oklahoma, and Luke Bryan, Thomas Rhett, and many more are from the Peach State of Georgia. Keith Urban was born in New Zealand and Lainey Wilson and Jordan Davis hail from Louisianna.

Let's look at those country stars who started in Tennessee, where Nashville dreams were just hours away.

Kane loves all the Georgia teams, primarily the Bulldogs, as Georgia is just minutes away from his hometown of Chattanooga, Tennessee. Moving to Nashville in his early twenties was an easy two-hour drive from his birthplace.

Dolly drove to Nashville right after she graduated from high school in the late 1960s. In 1988, Dolly paid back her hometown area by opening Dollywood, a theme park where so many natives of East Tennessee are employed.

Nancy Brooks has been working in the country music industry for almost 30 years. She has interviewed pretty much any country star you can think of. In the late 1990s, she started working with Dolly Parton. And yes, Nancy reports that Parton is as sweet as you would think. She loves her life in country music and has been backstage at every CMA Awards show since the late 1990s. Many of her stories are from her one-on-one interviews. She was there at the beginning of the incredible careers of many music superstars today, including Taylor Swift, Shania Twain, and Blake Shelton, and has interviewed them multiple times throughout the years.
