Timeline
Aaron Joseph Neville (born January 24, 1941) is an American R&B and soul singer.
He has had four platinum albums and four Top 10 hits in the United States, including three that reached number one on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart.
The first of his singles that was given airplay outside of New Orleans was "Over You" (Minit, 1960).
Neville's first major hit single was "Tell It Like It Is", released on a small New Orleans label, Par-Lo, co-owned by local musician/arranger George Davis, a friend from school, and band-leader Lee Diamond.
Neville released his first solo album since the late 1960s in 1986 with the independent release Orchid in The Storm.
Neville recorded a version of "I Fall to Pieces", a major crossover hit for Patsy Cline originally released in 1961, with Trisha Yearwood that resulted in Neville and Yearwood winning the Grammy Award for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals at the 37th Annual Grammy Awards.
As a result, Neville became one of the only African American recording artists to win a Grammy within the Country genre.
The album's first single was a remake of The Impressions' 1963 classic "It's All Right".
Neville's career has included work for television, movies and sporting events.
Neville sang the US national anthem in the movie The Fan starring Robert De Niro and Wesley Snipes.
"Tell It Like It Is", from 1966, also reached the top position on the Soul chart for five weeks.
He has also recorded with his brothers Art, Charles, and Cyril as the Neville Brothers and is the father of singer/keyboards player Ivan Neville.
The song topped Billboard's R&B chart for five weeks in 1967 and also reached on the Billboard Hot 100 (behind "I'm a Believer" by the Monkees).
It sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold disc.
It was not the label's only release, as some sources claim.
At least five other Par-Lo singles, three of them by Neville himself, are known to exist.
The follow-up single "The Grand Tour", a cover of country music legend George Jones' 1974 hit, peaked at No. 38 on the Billboard country singles chart, and was highly acclaimed by fans and critics, resulting in a nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Male Country Vocal Performance at the 36th Annual Grammy Awards in 1994.
He followed the album up with another platinum seller Aaron Neville's Soulful Christmas.
In 1989, Neville teamed up with Linda Ronstadt on the album Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind which included four duets by the pair.
Amongst them were the No. 1 Grammy-winning hits "Don't Know Much" and "All My Life".
"Don't Know Much" reached No. 2 on the Hot 100, and was certified Gold for selling a million copies, while the album was certified Triple Platinum for US sales of more than three million.
Following the success of Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind, Ronstadt produced his 1991 album Warm Your Heart including the hit single "Everybody Plays the Fool", a cover of the 1972 Main Ingredient song, which reached No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 and another duet with Ronstadt "Close Your Eyes".
During 1993 and 1994, Neville expanded his repertoire as a recording artist and ventured into making country music.
In 1993, Neville released the platinum-selling The Grand Tour on A&M Records with lead single "Don't Take Away My Heaven" reaching No. 4 on the Adult Contemporary chart (where previous hits "Don't Know Much", "All My Life", and "Everybody Plays the Fool" all reached number one).
He also sang the anthem at the WWF's SummerSlam 1993 and at WCW's Spring Stampede 1994.
Neville sang the theme music to the children's TV series Fisher-Price Little People and the songs for the sixth volume, "Discovering Seasons."
Neville's next country music project involved appearing on 1994's Rhythm, Country and Blues, an album of duets featuring R&B and Country artists performing renditions of classic country and R&B songs.
In April 1994, Neville appeared on Sesame Street to sing the song "I Don't Want to Live on the Moon" as a duet with Ernie.
Neville's 1995 release, The Tattooed Heart, featuring covers of classics by Bill Withers and Kris Kristofferson went gold, while 1997's pop-orientated ...To Make Me Who I Am included songwriting contributions from contemporary hitmakers Babyface and Diane Warren as well as two new duets with Ronstadt, including a cover of "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face".
Warm Your Heart was certified platinum in 1997 for more than a million sales in the U.S.
This was followed by a 2000 gospel album Devotion which topped the US gospel album chart, and his 2003 debut for Verve Records entitled Nature Boy: The Standards Album which topped the US jazz album chart.
The album saw Neville covering selections from the Great American Songbook, including another Ronstadt duet "The Very Thought of You".
In August 2005, his home in Eastern New Orleans was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina; he evacuated to Memphis, Tennessee, before the hurricane hit.
He initially went to Austin temporarily visiting his friend Clifford Antone, then moved to Nashville, Tennessee, after the storm.
Neville performed Randy Newman's "Louisiana 1927" during NBC's A Concert for Hurricane Relief on September 2, 2005.
Neville signed to SonyBMG's new Burgundy Records label in late 2005 and recorded an album of songs by Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Sam Cooke and others for Bring It On Home...The Soul Classics, released on September 19, 2006.
and, failing to return to the city by early 2008, caused the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival to temporarily change its tradition of having the Neville Brothers close the festival.
However, the Neville Brothers, including Aaron, returned for the 2008 Jazzfest, which returned to its traditional seven-day format for the first time since Katrina.
He then decided to move back to the New Orleans area, namely the North Shore city of Covington.
