Chris Cagle was born on November 10, 1968 and grew up in Texas. He started guitar lessons at age of six but switched to piano up to high school. In his senior year, he received an Ovation acoustic guitar so he picked up guitar lessons again. Chris attended the University of Texas for a few semesters but dropped out to move to Nashville in 1994 to pursue a singing career.

[edit] Overcoming Sickness
Early 2004, Chris was diagnosed with a polyp, a lesion, a cyst and a granuloma in his vocal cords. He was ordered vocal rest for sixty days, though it was reported that he did not sing for almost three months after the diagnosis.
[edit] Marital Crisis
Chris' lovelife has also been of much fascination as the music that he creates. In 2001, Chris tied the knot but the marriage was divorced a short while later. Chris later on released a statement that he is not the biological father of his ex-girlfriend's child.
