Multiple award-winning country singer Sara Evans is one of the genre's most enduring talents. Possessing an instantly recognizable contralto, she gained a record contract in 1996 when her rendition of Buck Owens' "I've Got a Tiger by the Tail" impressed its songwriter Harlan Howard so much he felt duty-bound to help her. After 1997's traditionalist debut, Three Chords & the Truth, Evans transitioned to a contemporary sound for 1998's No Place That Far and continued to evolve with the industry's changes. Her catalogue boasts three platinum albums and numerous gold records. She has topped the country singles as well as country albums charts, and has been awarded by most of the top ceremonies, including Billboard, CMA, BMI, and ACM.
