The Freddie Hart AirplayExpress Awards Page

Country music is full of rags-to-riches stories, but few took longer to unfold than Freddie Hart‘s — his chart-topping hit “Easy Loving” arrived nearly 20 years into his recording career. Hart was born Fred Segrest on December 21, 1926, in Loachapoka, Alabama. He was one of 15 children from a poor sharecropper’s family that struggled to provide enough food for its members, but shared a love of music and the Grand Ole Opry. Hart began playing guitar at the age of five, and joined the Civilian Conservation Corps at 12. He earned black belts in jujitsu and judo, and made his first public appearances singing at officers clubs. In 1971, a DJ began playing “Easy Loving” from the album of the same name, and it climbed to number one, winning the Country Music Association Song of the Year award and crossing over to the pop Top 40. Freddie continues to perform into the 21st century, recording a gospel album and making personal appearances in Branson, MO.
