Non-Fiction Memoir
Billy Ray Cyrus is an award-winning country music legend whose Γ’β¬ΕAchy Breaky HeartΓ’β¬Β propelled his debut album, Γ’β¬ΕSome Gave All,Γ’β¬Β to the top of the charts for a record-breaking seventeen weeks. HeΓ’β¬β’s also father of Miley Cyrus, one of HollywoodΓ’β¬β’s most successful young stars, who grew up on stage and on screen, most famously as the lead on the Disney ChannelΓ’β¬β’s Γ’β¬ΕHannah Montana,Γ’β¬Β 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 CyrusΓ’β¬β’s tenacious and inspiring struggle to find his own way to faith, family, and the power of music. Hillbilly Heart opens during CyrusΓ’β¬β’s turbulent childhood in Kentucky, where he sought refuge in music and sports after his parentsΓ’β¬β’ divorce. He was a troublemaker in training, known more for pulling pranks than for following in his preacher grandfatherΓ’β¬β’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 worldΓ’β¬β’s stage. Cyrus fans have always been able to piece together the details of his life through his lyricsΓ’β¬βthe ups and downs, adventures and disappointmentsΓ’β¬βbut Hillbilly Heart gives them a front row seat for his most candid performance ever.
