Clay Walker (born Ernest Clayton Walker, Jr., August 19, 1969 in Beaumont, Texas) is an American country music singer-songwriter. He made his debut in 1993 with the single "What's It to You", which reached Number One on the U.S.
Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts, as did its follow-up, 1994's "Live Until I Die". Both singles were included on Walker's self-titled debut album, also released in 1993.
Throughout the 1990s, Walker produced a constant string of hit singles on the country music charts, interrupted briefly when he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) in 1996. Walker has since participated in several forms of
charity to help combat the disease.
To date, Walker has released a total of ten albums, including a Greatest Hits package and an album of Christmas music. His first four studio albums all achieved RIAA platinum certification in the United States, while his Greatest Hits
collection and fifth studio album were each certified gold. In addition, he has charted more than twenty-five singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including six Number One singles. His most recent album, titled
Fall, was released in 2007 on Asylum-Curb Records.
