Dwight David Yoakam was born on October 23, 1956, in Pikeville, Kentucky, but grew up in Columbus, Ohio. From a young age, Yoakam was exposed to country music through his parents' record collection, which included artists like Johnny Cash and Buck Owens. This early exposure ignited his passion for music and set him on a path to become one of the most distinctive voices in country music.
Yoakam attended Ohio State University for a brief period before moving to Nashville, Tennessee, in the late 1970s to pursue a career in music. His unique blend of traditional honky-tonk and Bakersfield sound, coupled with his rockabilly influences, would later set him apart in the competitive country music industry.
