Randy Travis
Randy Travis is an American country music singer whose deep baritone voice and traditional sound defined the genre in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Hits like "Forever and Ever, Amen" and "Diggin' Up Bones" helped revive traditional country during an era of pop crossover.
A 2013 stroke largely ended his performing career, though he remains an influential figure in country music.
