Non-Fiction Memoir
Billy Ray Cyrus is an award-winning country music legend
whose “Achy Breaky Heart†propelled his debut album, “Some
Gave All,†to the top of the charts for a record-breaking
seventeen weeks. He’s also father of Miley Cyrus, one of
Hollywood’s most successful young stars, who grew up on
stage and on screen, most famously as the lead on the Disney
Channel’s “Hannah Montana,†where Billy Ray Cyrus played her
father. But sometimes the truth is even better than fiction.
Now, for the first time, fans can read about Cyrus’s
tenacious and inspiring struggle to find his own way to
faith, family, and the power of music. Hillbilly
Heart opens during Cyrus’s turbulent childhood in
Kentucky, where he sought refuge in music and sports after
his parents’ divorce. He was a troublemaker in training,
known more for pulling pranks than for following in his
preacher grandfather’s much-vaunted footsteps. But when he
heard a voice telling him to get a left-handed guitar and
start a band, this rebel found his cause. Ten years later,
after tirelessly working the club circuit and knocking on
the closed doors of music executives from Nashville to Los
Angeles, Cyrus finally made a stratospheric breakthrough,
becoming a multi-platinum selling artist and taking his
rock-and-roll twist on country music to the world’s stage.
Cyrus fans have always been able to piece together
the details of his life through his lyrics—the ups and
downs, adventures and disappointments—but Hillbilly Heart
gives them a front row seat for his most candid performance
ever.
