Vassar (born in Lynchburg, Virginia) is an American country music artist, most notable for his songwriting and use of a piano as his most prominent backing instrument.
Prior to signing with Arista Records in 2000, Vassar found considerable success as a songwriter, penning number-one hits for Jo Dee Messina, Alan Jackson, Tim McGraw, as well as several songs for other artists.
Vassar also co-owns a piano bar outside Nashville, Tennessee, where he performed his own material prior to signing a record deal.
In March 2007, Phil left Arista Records, and has since signed with Universal South.
