Thad Cockrell Biography
North Carolina-native Thad Cockrell, known for his themes of heartbreak (his self-professed goal is to put "the hurt back in country"), released his debut album, Stack of Dreams, in 2001 with backing group the Starlite Country Band.
The son of a Baptist minister, Thad grew up primarily in Tampa, FL. His family was not musical; in fact, he wasn't allowed to listen to ock & roll and didn't even own a stereo until well into adulthood. Despite a burgeoning music career, religion remained an important part of his life. After studying in the school of journalism at Jerry Falwell's Liberty University, he would move on to the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest.
