Darryl Worley

Country superstar Darryl Worley highlights our military tribute day with his patriotic singing style.  Worley’s six albums have produced seventeen singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts including three number one hits: “I Miss My Friend”, “Have You Forgotten” and “Awful, Beautiful Life”.  In 2002 Darryl traveled to the Middle East to entertain the troops in what he considered to be a life altering experience.  It was here he was inspired to write “Have You Forgotten” which went on to spend seven weeks at #1 on the charts.  He subsequently launched a series of visits both in the states and overseas to support all those who wore a military uniform and has received the VFW’s Americanism Award and the USO’s Merit Award along with a citation from the Tennessee House of Representatives for his contributions to country music.
