∙ The title track of 1998’s Wish You Were Here was his first chart-topper, and the Platinum LP is his best-selling album.
∙ Wills was named Top New Male Vocalist at the Academy of Country Music Awards in 1999.
∙ His soul-tinged 2000 cover of R&B singer Brian McKnight’s “Back at One” was among his biggest US hits and also topped the Canadian country charts.
∙ And the Crowd Goes Wild, released in 2003, featured him duetting with Ronnie Milsap on his version of the veteran country star’s 1984 hit “Prisoner of the Highway.”
