Dale Watson is an Austin, Texas-based musician born in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1962. He moved with his family to Pasadena, Texas, in 1977. Influenced by his father and brother, who were both musically inclined, Watson began writing his own songs at the age of 12 and made his first recording two years later. He became an emancipated minor and balanced school during the day with performing at local Houston clubs and honky-tonks at night in a group called The Classic Country Band. In 1988, Watson moved to Los Angeles on advice and joined the house band at a local venue. He recorded two singles for Curb Records in 1990 and 1991, titled "One Tear at a Time" and "You Pour It On and I Pour It Down," and appeared on the third volume of a compilation series in 1992. He later moved to Nashville, where he wrote songs for the Gary Morris publishing company, during which time his first daughter was born. He is married.
