Timeline

1972

Jimmy Wayne Barber (born October 23, 1972) is an American country music singer and songwriter.

Jimmy Wayne was born on October 23, 1972, in Kings Mountain, North Carolina, and grew up in Bessemer City.

His biological father abandoned him, and he and his sister were raised in and out of foster homes or were left with other people when their mother would leave them or was in prison.

1985

She served four months in prison in 1985 when Wayne was 12.

After entering a group home, Wayne ran away and lived with his mother for a brief time before living on the streets and with his sister, Patricia, for a short while.

He was invited to move in with an elderly couple, Russell and Bea Costner, (just down the road from where his mother was living), after being hired to mow their lawn.

After finishing high school and earning a degree in Criminal Justice, he worked as a guard at the Gaston Correctional Facility, where he worked as a corrections officer for four years before moving to Nashville, Tennessee, to pursue his musical interests.

In Nashville, Wayne worked as a songwriter for Acuff-Rose Music, collaborating with Dean Dillon, Sanger D. Shafer and others while practicing his guitar and songwriting skills.

One of his first cuts as a songwriter was "Put Your Hand in Mine," released by Tracy Byrd in late 1999 from the album It's About Time.

Four singles were released from it, including "Stay Gone" and "I Love You This Much", which both reached Top Ten on the Billboard country charts.

Wayne released his debut single, "Stay Gone," in 2003.

This song was inspired by his sister, Patricia, who explained her marital troubles to him by saying "everything would be better if her husband would just stay gone," according to CMT.

This song went on to peak at No. 3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts that year.

It was also the first release from his self-titled debut album, produced by Chris Lindsey and James Stroud.

"I Love You This Much," the next single, went on to peak at No. 6, followed by "You Are" and "Paper Angels," both at No. 18.

The album also included the song "Blue and Brown," which Wayne wrote about a foster brother who ended up a prison inmate at the correctional facility Wayne worked.

"Paper Angels", written about the Salvation Army's Angel Tree program, earned him a William Booth Award from the organization.

2005

After DreamWorks closed in 2005, Wayne was transferred to Big Machine Records.

His first release for the label was "That's All I'll Ever Need," which he co-wrote with Mark Nesler and Tony Martin.

A second studio album, titled Do You Believe Me Now, was released on August 26.

For the week of September 13, 2008, the title track became his first and only Number One hit on the Hot Country Songs chart.

"I Will" was released in October 2008 as the second single from Do You Believe Me Now, and it peaked at No. 18.

This cover is the lead-off single to his second album of the same name for Valory, released on November 23.

The song has become Wayne's seventh Top 40 country single, as well as Hall & Oates' first Top 40 country single.

The album's second single is "Just Knowing You Love Me," a duet with Whitney Duncan, which debuted and peaked at No. 59 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.
