Corbett Trades Movie Scripts For Music
Posted Feb 24th 2006 6:51PM by TMZ Staff
The Associated Press -- This just might be the role actor John Corbett was born to play.
Known for playing the handsome non-Greek boyfriend in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," the philosophical radio DJ on "Northern Exposure" and Carrie's boyfriend on "Sex and the City," Corbett has taken a hiatus from acting to launch a music career.
His debut album — a collection of country-rock songs penned and performed by some of Nashville's finest talents — comes out April 4 on his own Fun Bone Records label.
With his long hair, boots and faded Bob Dylan T-shirt, the 6-foot-5 Corbett sure looked the part of aspiring country rocker during a recent interview. The only thing missing was the cowboy hat.
"I think it's been a big shock to people," he said. "They didn't know I'd be any good at it. A lot of people think I just picked up a guitar, took some lessons and started singing. But I think I'm a better singer and guitar player than actor."
