Country singer Shania Twain began performing in clubs at age eight to help supplement her parents’ income. During high school she sang with a Top 40 cover band, and at age 21 she moved to Toronto, where she sang in clubs at night. Less than a year later, however, her parents were killed in a traffic accident, and she returned home to raise her sister and two brothers. In 1991 Twain attracted the attention of producer Norro Wilson, who took her to Nashville to record her first album, Shania Twain. It sold only 100,000 copies, but her talent caught the eye of producer Robert John (“Mutt”) Lange. Their partnership led to her massively successful 1995 album The Woman in Me.
