Musical career

Worsham was born in Jackson, Mississippi, and grew up in Grenada, Mississippi. The Mississippi Senate recognized Worsham in 1999, when he was 14 years old, for his outstanding musical accomplishments, as well as being "a model student who makes straight A's". [1] Worsham attended Grenada High School, and then Berklee College of Music in Boston. [3]

Worsham joined the band KingBilly, singing harmonies and playing mandolin until 2010; the band recorded an extended play, "Waiting On You". Though the band received some local fame in Nashville and a featured spot on Great American Country’s GAC Minute, they never broke through to mainstream radio, and disbanded in 2012 with all members pursuing solo careers.

The album features Vince Gill and Marty Stuart on one of the tracks, "Tools of the Trade". [8] The album's second single, "Want Me Too", was released in late 2013.

Beginning of Things (2017)

Worsham's second album, Beginning of Things, was released on April 21, 2017. "Cut Your Groove" was released as the album's lead single. [9] Worsham did not release any new content until April 2021 when he issued a single titled "Fist Through This Town". [10] This was followed by an EP titled Sugarcane in July of the same year. [11]
