Several of her notable country hits include “Restless”, “No Place For That”, “Born To Fly”, and “Perfect”. Her journey in the music industry commenced in 1997, earning her numerous awards and accolades.
Wondering about Sara Evans’ wealth as of early 2016? It is believed that her net worth exceeds $14 million. Her prosperity largely stems from her flourishing music career and collaborations with renowned musicians. Additionally, she has supplemented her net worth through appearances in TV series.
The Rise to Success
Evans grew up on a farm and began singing at a young age as part of her family band. At eight years old, she endured a car accident, and her renditions of traditional country songs helped cover the resulting medical bills. At 16, she started performing in local nightclubs. Her journey eventually led her to Nashville, where she signed with RCA Nashville records, marking the onset of her professional career.
Her debut album, “Three Chords And A Truth”, was released in 1997, and though it didn’t produce a top 40 single on the Billboard charts, it received positive reviews. Subsequently, her album “No Place That Far” achieved gold certification in 1999, marking the start of a flourishing career. Her album “Born To Fly” released in 2000 became her highest selling album, with sales exceeding two million copies and achieving double platinum certification. She continued this streak of success with subsequent albums which further escalated her net worth.
Adding to her accomplishments, Sara released four more albums: “Real Fine Place” (2005), “Stronger” (2011), “Slow Me Down” (2014), and “At Christmas” (2014). These ventures bolstered her prominence in the music industry, earning her several awards such as Female Vocalist of the Year and Video of the Year for “Born to Fly”.
Beyond her music career, she also ventured into TV appearances. In 2006, she became the first country singer to feature in the popular show “Dancing With The Stars”. Additionally, she appeared as a guest star on Jeff Foxworthy’s TV show and also landed a role in the OWN series “Lovetown, USA” in 2012.
Transitioning to her personal life, Evans has been married twice. Her first marriage was to Craig Schelske, with whom she shares three children. In 2008, she tied the knot with Jay Barker, a retired football quarterback, and the couple currently resides in Mountain Brook, Alabama with their children.
