Samuel Paul Kershaw (born February 24, 1958) is an American country music artist. He has released 16 studio albums, with three RIAA platinum certifications and two gold certifications among them. More than 25 singles have entered Top 40 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including his only number one hit “She Don’t Know She’s Beautiful” and 10 more Top 10 hits: “Cadillac Style”, “Anywhere but Here”, “Haunted Heart”, “Queen of My Double-Wide Trailer”, “I Can’t Reach Her Anymore”, “National Working Woman’s Holiday”, “Third Rate Romance”, “Meant to Be”, “Vidalia”, and “Love of My Life”.

Kershaw’s fourth studio album, the gold-certified Politics, Religion and Her, was issued in 1996. It produced Top 10 hits in “Meant to Be” and “Vidalia”, the latter of which Kershaw also considered a risky song, saying, “If radio will play this one more than twice—so people can get the story and learn what a Vidalia onion is—it’ll be a smash.” These songs were followed by “Fit to Be Tied Down” and the title track, both of which hit the Top 30. Also included on Politics, Religion and Her were covers of Chuck Berry’s “Memphis, Tennessee” and Sammy Johns’ “Chevy Van”. The same year, Kershaw briefly took ownership of a NASCAR Busch series team (now Xfinity Series).

Labor of Love was issued later in 1997 as his fifth album. Unlike his previous albums, this one was predominantly composed of ballads. It produced a No. 2 in “Love of My Life”, and although none of the other three singles (“Matches”, “Honky Tonk America” and “One Day Left to Live”) reached higher than No. 22, the album was nonetheless certified platinum. His next album, Maybe Not Tonight, brought a Top 20 duet with Lorrie Morgan.

Although Kershaw had been told by others that radio audiences might not identify with the subject matter on “Queen of My Double-Wide Trailer”, Kershaw wanted to release the song because he had an experience similar to its story line. Like his debut, Haunted Heart was a platinum album. In mid-1994, Kershaw also covered the Lynyrd Skynyrd song “I Know a Little” on the tribute album Skynyrd Frynds, which included country music covers of Skynyrd songs. Also in 1994, Kershaw contributed the song “Fire and Rain” to the AIDS benefit album Red Hot + Country, produced by the Red Hot Organization.
