Early in his career Dillon was paired with Gary Stewart, the Ft. Pierce “King of the Honky Tonkers,” resulting in two successful good-timing albums and the single “An Empty Glass.” Dillon then took a five year hiatus from recording, concentrated on songwriting, and began his relationship with country legend George Strait, an association that defined both their careers and brought Dillon ICON STATUS in country music. Dillon wrote on 55 songs for Strait, with 11 number 1’s that included: “Marina del Rey”, “The Chair”, “I’ve Come to Expect it From You”, “Easy Come, Easy Go”, “She Let Herself Go”, and “The Best Day.”
