In 1996, Lee AnnWomack signed with Decca Records as a recording artist. Her debut album, Lee Ann Womack, was released the next year and spawned the country music hits "Never Again, Again" and "The Fool," which reached the number two spot on the charts. The next year Womack was back in the spotlight with Some Things I Know. Several tracks from this album made it to the country charts, including "A Little Past Little Rock," "You've Got to Talk to Me," and "(Now You See Me) Now You Don't." Womack's next effort, I Hope You Dance (2000), became her biggest success so far. The album sold more than 3 million copies - driven by the hit title single. "I Hope You Dance." That song reached the top of the country music charts that year and went on to take the number one spot on the adult contemporary charts the next year. It even climbed as high as number fourteen on Billboard's Hot 100 chart.
In 2005, Womack came back victorious with a return to traditional country music. Her sixth album, There's More Where That Came From, took inspiration from the music of popular country performers Dolly Parton and Barbara Mandrell among others. Some critics thought it was Womack's best album to date. She won the 2005 Single of the Year Award for "I May Hate Myself in the Morning" and the 2005 Album of the Year Award from the CMA. In 2014, she signed with a new label, Sugar Hill Records, and that same year released The Way I’m Livin' which critics and fans loved. The song “Chances Are” earned Womack 2 Grammy nominations.
