Randy的父亲一直希望他成为一名乡村歌手，他的家中充满着Hank Williams和Stonewall Jackson的个人专辑。Harold将西部行头和吉他买给了他的四个儿子。在Randy十岁之前，他和他的兄弟Ricky 组成了二重唱，遍及西部包括小提琴协会、私人派对、VFW大厅以及各处他们可以吸引人群的地方表演。尽管很年轻，Randy带有磁性的嗓音仍然震惊了人群。他带领人们来到了一种回归到艺术性和音乐性比形象更重要的时代。后来的许多歌手都在他早期的乡村音乐中找寻灵感，他也是以后颇为大家所知的新乡村音乐Country的先驱。
兰迪·特拉维斯(Randy Travis)是美国格莱美奖和Dove Award得主。自1985年出道以来，他发行了十多个专辑，其中30多个单曲打入乡村单曲排行榜，更有16个已经取得榜首。80年代,随着“乡村牛仔”运动的兴起,乡村音乐对流行歌曲的影响曾强。在八十年代中期，有乔治 斯崔特(George Strait)和瑞基斯卡格罗(Ricky skaggs)这样的后来者，大反传统唱法，朗地 特维斯(Randy Travis)则走的更远。他凭借优美的旋律和精致的声线把寻传统主义带道了乡村音乐的前端。
Randy Bruce Traywick (born May 4, 1959), known professionally as Randy Travis, is an American country music and Christian country music singer, songwriter, guitarist, and actor.
Active since 1978, he has recorded 20 studio albums and charted more than 50 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including sixteen that reached the No. 1 position. Considered a pivotal figure in the history of country music, Travis broke through in the mid-1980s with the release of his album Storms of Life, which sold more than four million copies. The album established him as a major force in the neotraditional country movement. Travis followed up his successful debut with a string of platinum and multi-platinum albums. He is known for his distinctive baritone vocals, delivered in a traditional style that has made him a country music star since the 1980s.
By the mid-1990s, Travis saw a decline in his chart success. In 1997, he left Warner Bros. Records for DreamWorks Records and then for Word Records, where he began recording more Christian material. Although the career shift produced only one more number-one country hit "Three Wooden Crosses," Travis went on to earn several Dove Awards, including Country Album of the Year five times. In addition to his singing career, he pursued an acting career, appearing in numerous films and television series, including The Rainmaker (1997) with Matt Damon, Black Dog (1998) with Patrick Swayze, Texas Rangers (2001) with James Van Der Beek, and seven episodes of the Touched by an Angel television series.
Travis has sold over 25 million records and has won six Grammy Awards, six CMA Awards, nine ACM Awards, 10 AMA Awards, eight Dove Awards, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In 2016, Travis was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame.
