An intimate evening in conversation celebrating Clint Black’s new book Killin’ Time: My Life and Music.In his long-awaited memoir, Black shares the unfiltered, extraordinary account of his journey from a kid with a dream on the outskirts of Houston to a country music legend. From his near-death experiences as a young boy, to his decision to drop out of high school to pursue music, to countless years struggling as an unknown young artist, playing at any nightclub or hotel bar that would have him, Black’s path to success had more twists than the Texas two-step.
Once fame hit and the stakes got higher, Black didn’t let the pressure of big crowds, big money, or big labels steer him off course. By writing from the heart and sticking to his guns, he built a legacy on his own terms. These values proved to be Black’s north star navigating superstardom, including a difficult lawsuit against his ex-manager; subsequently founding his own record label; recording with heroes such as Jimmy Buffett, Merle Haggard, and Eric Idle; his whirlwind romance and everlasting marriage with actress Lisa Hartman Black; and most recently, a critical issue with a cervical spine injury, which threatened the very thing that made him a star: his voice.
With vivid, deeply personal stories — all told with Black’s signature charm — he recounts how his steadfast dedication to his beliefs and his passion for music led him to success after success and through storm after storm. For longtime fans and newcomers alike, Killin’ Time is a revelatory and rare glimpse of the iconic life and career of a once in a generation talent.
Clint Black will also be the subject of a new exhibition at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, Clint Black: The Hard Way On Purpose. The exhibit will trace Black’s story, from a working-class upstart to topping the charts on his own terms. Black’s many talents and considerable versatility — as a singer, songwriter, player, actor, label head and more — have captivated the world of country music. The exhibit, which will be open from April 22, 2026, until August 2027, is included with museum admission.
