After enduring label shakeups, tabloid scrutiny and other unpleasantries, the country-rock singer-songwriter Chris Cagle walked away in 2008 from an eight-year recording career that had produced several hits, including his debut single “My Love Goes On and On,” “I Breathe In, I Breathe Out,” “What a Beautiful Day” and “Chicks Dig It.”

He bought land in Marietta, settled in Oklahoma and took a hands-on role in building his Big Horse Ranch from the red dirt up. At an Ardmore charity event, he fell hard for his future wife, Kay, married her in December 2010, and became a stepfather to her daughter, Chloe, now 8. The couple soon welcomed two more daughters, Stella, 2, and Piper, 1.
