Sara Evans has only had an unfulfilled dream throughout her entire life her desire to compose and perform country music. Evans has been reported to have said, "God has put me in this world to be an artist." The quote is attributed to John Meroney from American Enterprise. "It is what I like doing the most which is why I'm bound to succeed." In addition, Evans wanted to succeed in bringing back the classic country songs brought to life by legends like Patsy Cline, Hank Snow, Tammy Wynette, George Jones and Patty Loveless, musicians Evans believed to be her biggest sources of inspiration. In the latter part of 1990, in a time where most promising country singers turned to modern songs that were radio-friendly, Evans was able to make her mark through her performances of country tunes that looked to the past which was evident in her 1997 debut entitled True Lies. Although it received a lot of praise and a nomination by the Academy of Country Music in 1998 for best new female vocalist, True Lies made little impression. Evans was able to convince her to modify the repertoire for No Place That Far in 1999 by producers. That gave her the public acknowledgement she'd always had been seeking for years. Sara Evans was born February 5, 1971, at Columbia, Missouri. She spent her early years in Columbia, Missouri with her six brothers and sisters
