To begin with, he grew up in Coleman, but changed schools very often – during 12 school years he managed to attend 13 different schools. Later, he attended Abilene Christian University studying psychology, but didn’t graduate, preferring to begin playing and singing in various clubs.
From 1983 to 1989, he pursued a career as a solo artist. He released several singles, like “It’s Written All Over Your Face” (1983) and “She Put the Sad in All His Songs” (1984) which managed to enter the Billboard Country Top 100. In 1990, Dunn and Kix Brooks launched a new band entitled Brooks & Dunn, and in 1991 they released their first studio album “Brand New Man” which was a great debut, as the album became six times platinum in USA, three times in Canada, and appeared in the top 10 places on various Billboard charts. It should be noted that the following studio albums released up to 1999 were as successful as the debut one – “Hard Workin’ Man” (1993), “Waitin’ on Sundown” (1994), “Borderline” (1996) and “If You See Her” (1998) were certified multi-platinum in USA, and were in the top positions of many charts in Canada and USA. Later on, the popularity of the band declined a bit, but the studio albums were certified platinum or at least gold in Canada and USA. The album sales increased the total size of Ronnie Dunn and his partner’s net worth considerably.
However, Dunn decided to get back to his solo career in 2010. In 2011, he released a self-titled album which topped the Billboard Country chart, and was popular in UK and Canada. However, the following album “Peace, Love, and Country Music” failed in both, sales and charts. After releasing several singles, he speculated a lot about his upcoming album, although it was not released. In 2015, it was announced that the band “Brooks & Dunn” had reunited, but it must be said that after the reunion they haven’t released any albums.
Finally, in the personal life of the singer, he has been married to his wife Janine since 1990, and they have three children.
