Phil Vassar doesn't act like a star. Sure, nine songs that bear his credit as a writer have topped the Country charts. As a performer as well as writer, he lofted his first single, "Just Another Day in Paradise," to No. 1 in 2000 - a few weeks before Tim McGraw took its place at the top with another Vassar-penned song, "My Next Thirty Years." ASCAP has named him Songwriter of the Year twice. Billboard has hailed him as Top New Country Artist and Country Songwriter of the Year.
All that is true, but whether seen from a seat in an arena he's sold out on his recent "acoustic tour" or up close in conversation, Vassar comes across like an old college roommate, the friendly bartender who remembers your drink as you walk through the door, or one of the guys you call for a pickup baseball game when the weather warms up.
