Clint Black To Release Memoir

December 10, 2025/by Madison Hahnen

Clint Black will release his memoir, KILLIN’ TIME: My Life and Music, on May 19 via Harper Influence, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers. Maddie Pillari, Editor, will edit the book.

KILLIN’ TIME showcases Black’s journey from a tough childhood on the outskirts of Houston to his rise as a country music superstar and icon. Taking from decades of songwriting, performing, and personal trials, the memoir gives an unfiltered, behind-the-scenes account of the highs and lows that shaped his career and life. Black has sold over twenty million records, notched twenty-two number one singles, and has won countless awards.

“This is the story of a dreamer with a persistent soul. After ten years of playing clubs in Texas, I never knew if I’d get the chance to record my music in Nashville. And then, in one year, my life changed forever,” says Black. “If my story—this crazy, 40-year rollercoaster ride, can inspire that young singer-songwriter rinsing and repeating every day, or reinforce the person struggling through a seemingly endless grind in the pursuit of a dream, well, then, I’ll know my life has made a difference.”

“Clint Black is part of the fabric of America,” says Harper Influence Publisher Lisa Sharkey. “An icon in the world of country music, Clint’s talent spans nearly 40 years of our culture. His tough Texas upbringing and his rise to the pinnacle of his craft coupled with his love story with wife and actress Lisa Hartman will leave you with a new appreciation for this extraordinary man and his music.”

“This is more than a musician’s memoir; it’s the definitive account of a transformative era in country music.” adds Pillari.

Pre-order for the book is available now.
