A 9x diamond-certified GRAMMY® Award-nominated phenomenon, Dallas, TX artist Post Malone regularly rewrites history, blurs boundaries, and incites internet-breaking conversation with every move. Emerging in 2015 with a genre-less brew that inspired a movement, he delivered the diamond-selling “Congratulations” [feat. Quavo], achieved back-to-back #1 debuts on the Billboard Top 200, received countless multi-Platinum certifications around the world, and smashed one record after another with his Hot 100-topping hits. 

As the writer or co-writer of all of his songs, Post Malone is one of our generation's literary geniuses. Most recently, Post released his debut country album, F-1 Trillion which landed at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart. Ahead of the album, Post released “Guy For That” featuring Luke Combs, “Pour Me A Drink” featuring Blake Shelton and mega-smash “I Had Some Help” with Morgan Wallen. Upon release of “I Had Some Help” it landed at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, tallying “the highest weekly sales and streams since 2020” and remained at #1 for six consecutive weeks. 

The critically acclaimed F-1 Trillion, and collaborations with Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, earned Post 8 2025 GRAMMY® nominations. This past spring, Post headlined Coachella before hitting the road on his “Big Ass Stadium” tour, following his record-breaking F-1 Trillion Tour last fall. In 2023, he released his fifth album AUSTIN. That same year, he garnered a “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance” GRAMMY® Award nomination for “I Like You (A Happier Song)” [with Doja Cat], marking his tenth career nomination in six years. In 2022, Post released his fourth album, Twelve Carat Toothache, which marked his fourth consecutive Top 5 bow on the Top 200. He even scored “the highest-certified single in RIAA history” with “Sunflower (Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse)” [feat. Swae Lee] reaching 20x platinum, or double diamond, in the United States. This makes it the first song to ever achieve this status, netting the biggest single of his generation.

4X GRAMMY®-nominated, award-winning Nashville native Jelly Roll (Jason DeFord) continues to redefine the word entertainer. With the release of his 2024 album, Beautifully Broken, he topped the Billboard 200 all-genre chart and earned his second #1 Billboard Country Album chart debut. Acclaimed by Rolling Stone, Billboard, NPR, and more, Beautifully Broken features his #1 songs like the Grammy-nominated “I Am Not Okay,” “Liar” that dominated the country radio chart for six-straight weeks and latest #1 single “Heart of Stone.” 2024/2025 has only continued the singer/songwriter's momentum, with numerous nominations and award wins, his eighth consecutive #1 at Country radio as well as hits on the Rock and Christian charts, and a landmark appearance as the musical guest on SNL’s 50th Anniversary Season Premiere episode. Solidifying his place as one of music’s most authentic and powerful voices, the star just completed Post Malone’s BIG ASS WORLD Tour and performed as a part of the first concert at St. Peter's Square, Grace for the World: The Live Event in Rome. 

Beautifully Broken followed his debut country album, Whitsitt Chapel, which made history as the biggest Country debut on the Billboard Consumption Chart and debuted #1 on the Billboard Country Albums and Top 3 on the Billboard 200. After sweeping the CMT Music Awards, he went on to receive Billboard’s Breakthrough Award, CMA’s New Artist of the Year Award, and earned the People’s Choice Award for Male Country Artist of the Year as well as additional ACM, CMA, Billboard, AMA and DOVE nominations and wins. 

Beyond music, Jelly continues his mission—visiting correctional and rehab centers across the US and internationally to help bring music to some of the darkest corners and donating a recording studio to the juvenile center where he was once incarcerated. Praised for both his music and his uniquely authentic power to inspire, Variety notes "for everyone who’s facing the same struggles, Jelly Roll is their Springsteen" while American Songwriter hails him as “a force to be reckoned with.” 

Carín León has established himself as one of the most influential figures in contemporary Latin music since his solo debut in 2018. With a distinctive style that blends regional Mexican music with a diverse range of genres, including pop, rock, and other global sounds, the Hermosillo, Sonora native has won three Latin GRAMMYs®, a GRAMMY®, and several diamond, gold and platinum certifications. His versatility is showcased through high-caliber collaborations with superstars such as Bon Jovi, Carlos Santana, Kacey Musgraves, Kane Brown, Maluma, C. Tangana, and Camilo, among others, as well as performances on global stages, including the Grand Ole Opry, Coachella, and Viña del Mar, where he received the gold and silver Gaviota awards. In 2025, he shattered the RODEOHOUSTON’s attendance record and toured Europe with the “Boca Chueca Tour,” and in 2026, he’ll become the first Latin artist to perform at Las Vegas Sphere. Recognized as the global ambassador of Música Mexicana, Carín continues to break barriers and inspire new generations. 

20-year-old powerhouse vocalist and songwriter Jessie Murph is owning her moment, building a reputation as one of music’s boldest new voices. 

Last year’s release of her highly anticipated debut album That Ain’t No Man, It’s the Devil—featured standout collaborations like “Someone In This Room” with Bailey Zimmerman and “High Road” ft. Koe Wetzel, which marked their highest debut yet on the Billboard Hot 100 at #29 and #1 on the Billboard Country Radio Chart. The album also included her blockbuster platinum anthem “Wild Ones” with Jelly Roll, which scored Jessie two nominations at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards including Best Pop Collaboration for “Wild Ones” and Best PUSH Artist.  

In 2024, she’s dominated both the charts and the stage. Her global headline tour sold over 85,000 tickets and featured major festival sets at Governor’s Ball, Boston Calling, BottleRock, and a return to her home state’s Hangout Festival for the second year in a row. She recently wrapped the second leg of her In the Sticks North American headline tour—presented by Poshmark x Future is Female—with a special arena finale, Live For One Night, at the Von Braun Center in her hometown of Huntsville, Alabama. Jessie also made her Coachella debut this April, marking another major milestone in her live performance journey.  Next up, Jessie will play Bonnaroo and Tailgates N Tallboys, with a worldwide headline tour planned for later this year.  

Jessie’s latest singles, “Blue Strips” and “Gucci Mane,” showcase her genre-blending edge and raw storytelling, continuing her next chapter which promises to be her rawest and realest era yet. She celebrates a nomination for New Female Artist of the Year at the 2025 Academy of Country Music Awards.  

Koe Wetzel never met a genre wall he couldn’t tear down: The Texas singer-songwriter has earned a rabid audience for his songs that mix country, rock, hip-hop, and even Nineties grunge. His 2016 album Noise Complaint endeared him to fans with its no- holds-barred lyrics about drunken nights, broken hearts and stints in jail, and included the Gold-certified hits “Love” (feat. Parker McCollum), “Something to Talk About” and the infamous “February 28, 2016.” Wetzel’s 2020 major label debut, Sellout, only furthered his legend with the Platinum-certified “Drunk Driving” plus the Gold-certified “Good Die Young” and “Kuntry & Wistern.” The 2022 follow-up, Hell Paso, hit No. 3 on Billboard’s Country Albums and spawned hits on both the country and rock charts, including the Gold-certified “Creeps” and “Cabo.” To date, Wetzel has 2.8 billion total streams and has created a genuine experience with his live concerts, which he describes as “total chaos.” In 2023 alone, he sold more than 275,000 tickets, and appeared for a third time on POLLSTAR’s Top Worldwide Tours. Wetzel will play prominent festival sets this summer and open for Morgan Wallen on the superstar’s One Night at a Time Stadium Tour in Texas, while also headlining his own Damn Near Normal World Tour. His new album, 9 Lives (Columbia), is available everywhere now as lead single “High Road” feat. Jessie Murph arrives as his debut Country radio single. 

Cody Jinks has always built his career on his own terms. Growing up near Fort Worth, Texas, he cut his‬  teeth in bars and honky-tonks, where he learned to disrupt the status quo with an industrious,‬ ‭ do-it-yourself approach. Look no further than the independent label he owns and operates, Late August‬  Records, which was launched as part of an unprecedented partnership with The Orchard. ‭ Jinks’ latest studio album, 2024’s‬‭ Change The Game‬‭ ,‬‭ reflected the notion that the rewards from working‬ ‭ hard are great—especially when you’re staying true to your beliefs and vision.

“I’d say this is the most‬ ‭ vulnerable record I’ve ever written,” Jinks said. “Kind of a shedding of the skin for me.” Accordingly,‬‭ Change The Game‬‭’s themes looked inward: The narrators‬‭ held themselves accountable for their flaws and‬  bad behaviors—and took responsibility for their actions with humility—to illustrate the idea that‬ ‭ redemption is possible.‬

‭ It's fitting that in fall 2024, Jinks revisited and reissued another album that marked a turning point in his‬  career, 2012’s fan-favorite‬‭ 30‬‭ “I was coming into‬‭ my own as a songwriter with that record, ” he says now,‬ “and I felt like I really turned a page. ” Titled‬‭ Backside‬‭ of 30‬‭ , the remixed and remastered record made its‬  debut on vinyl, and also included a new song, “When the New Wears Off.” Jinks wrote the heartfelt‬  anthem about everlasting and unconditional love 20 years ago, right after he got married.‬

Max McNown creates the kind of songs that perfectly soundtrack our most intimate moments: times of intense heartache and tremendous loss, immense upheaval and life-changing revelation. Within just a year of teaching himself to play guitar, the Oregon-bred, Nashville-based musician turned out three EPs spotlighting his emotionally potent yet nuanced lyrics—an element beautifully displayed on his breakout single “A Lot More Free,” a track that landed on Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart and greatly expanded his grassroots following. Anchored in the charmingly warm vocal presence he partly honed by busking at the beach in Southern California, McNown’s debut album Wandering brings an even deeper sense of purpose to his songwriting—and, in turn, reveals his extraordinary capacity to ease the mind and strengthen the soul. 

At 22, McNown has already been on a storied musical journey. Taking control of his future and drawing inspiration from his brother who was bravely fighting cancer, McNown packed his bags and drove from remote Oregon to Southern California. From there, videos of him busking on a pier made an impact online and eventually grew into a legion of supporters on TikTok. 

After attracting interest from major TV talent shows, McNown auditioned for one and then decided it wasn’t for him, and gracefully turned them down as he knew he needed to walk his own path. His loyal fanbase then helped McNown amass 80 million streams and a spot on Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart with his breakout single, “A Lot More Free,” which was recently #1 on the TikTok Breakthrough USA chart.   

When wrestling with inevitable moments of self-doubt in the creative process and his fast moving career, McNown looks back to insight shared by his mother. “When I was younger I sang around the house all the time—I’d sing in the shower or before I went to bed, I’d always sing in the car,” he says. “My mom used to tell us growing up that singing means you have a happy heart. Even if the song’s about something difficult or painful, I still have a happy heart when I sing.” 

With 23 No.1 singles on country radio, countless awards, and sold-out tours, Tyler Hubbard has already had a remarkable career as a songwriter and as one half of multi-platinum duo Florida Georgia Line. Now as a solo artist, he has amassed more than 2.1 billion streams to date.  

Hubbard’s Gold-certified debut solo album, aptly titled Tyler Hubbard, was released in January 2023 and features his debut single “5 Foot 9,” which hit No. 1 at Country Radio, was certified 2x Platinum by the RIAA and has 762.6M global streams. The album also features his second No. 1 single, “Dancin’ In The Country,” which has amassed more than 651.7M global streams and has been certified 2x Platinum by the RIAA.  

Hubbard has made several television appearances as a solo artist, including Good Morning America, The Kelly Clarkson Show and Fox & Friends, and also on the CMT Music Awards, ACM Honors, NBC’s TODAY Show and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.  

His follow-up singles, including “Back Then Right Now” and “Park,” both reached No. 1 on country radio, making Hubbard the only country artist to launch two separate careers with four consecutive chart-toppers, marking 23 total No. 1 songs in his career. “Park” is featured on his latest album, Strong. 

There’s more to the duality of Clay Walker’s debut Show Dog Nashville album Texas To Tennessee than the title. Certainly, the realities of place are as central as this comeback album’s name implies: Nashville busily working toward the next fresh hit; Texas moving at its inimitable and familiar pace. There’s also a mix of songwriting and production approaches, evident and more nuanced relationships between the songs themselves, and the overarching presence of a naturally gifted vocalist who relentlessly pursues his own development as a singer. But don’t mistake those dualities for dichotomy – and certainly not polarity. In a storied career dotted with smash singles, platinum albums and countless honors and acclaim, maybe the connection between country’s timeless themes and music-of-the-moment timeliness has been there all along.

Many of the country fans behind the almost 20 million on-demand and video streams for his latest single “Need A Bar Sometimes” – who may also be among his 750,000 TikTok followers – are wholly unaware of Walker’s history. Discovered in a Beaumont area bar by noted producer and head of Giant Records James Stroud (Toby Keith, Tracy Lawrence, Tim McGraw, Kenny Rogers), Walker was in his early twenties when he started rattling off a string of smash hits. Among them, “Live Until I Die,” “Dreaming With My Eyes Open,” “This Woman And This Man,” “Hypnotize The Moon,” “Rumor Has It,” “Then What,” “I Can’t Sleep” and “She Won’t Be Lonely Long.” His self-titled debut album rocketed to platinum status, the first of four to cross the million-sold mark. Racking up more than 30 charted singles and 11 No. 1s wasn’t without its struggles, however.

Multi-platinum-selling artist Mitchell Tenpenny has seen his career explode over the last few years. Since the release of his debut #1 hit single “Drunk Me” the multi-faceted entertainer, singer, songwriter, producer and performer has surpassed the One Billion streams threshold, now at more than 2.3 Billion global streams and growing. His RIAA certifications continue to soar with recent recognitions for “Drunk Me” hitting 4-times Platinum and “We Got History” garnering Platinum status. 

Mitchell’s additional #1 singles include “Truth About You” and “At The End Of A Bar” with Chris Young. With the latter (at the time of its chart peak), Mitchell made history with shortest span between #1 songs since 1982 with just a three-week stretch.

From the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to the Today Show and numerous other television appearances, Mitchell has performed his music to an ever-growing legion of fans. His success as a touring artist has grown from recent guest slots on the road with Jason Aldean, Luke Combs and Jordan Davis, to his own headline tours and a current run with Kane Brown this spring. 

Mitchell’s third studio, 20-track album The 3rd is a testament to his personal growth and artistic evolution as the music resonates with his own experiences and emotions. This honest and empathetic collection showcases his maturity as a man, singer, songwriter, and storyteller and invites listeners to join him on his creative journey through life and music. 

Rolling out new music like “First” with big moves on tap, Warner Music Nashville’s Chase Matthew continues to make his case as one of Country’s boldest new voices. A Music City native, the rising star began his career by blazing an independent trail, leveraging an infectious country-or-nothing personality, rowdy live performances, and authentic music built around his low-slung vocal twang. Amassing 1 BILLION+ global career streams (with more than 315 MILLION global streams on his first RIAA PLATINUM-certified smash, “County Line”), Matthew has garnered 1.5 MILLION+ followers across social media; named “One to Watch” by HITS; Opry NextStage Class of 2024; and among MusicRow’s Next Big Thing Class of 2024. Since releasing his sophomore album, Come Get Your Memory, he spent 2023 selling out venues across the nation on his headline COME GET YOUR MEMORY TOUR, while also appearing at major festivals and more. His GOLD-certified debut single “Love You Again” is Top 15-and-rising at Country radio, and along with releasing his six-song EP We All Grow Up – a mix of backroad swagger and broken hearts – he’s set to spend this year extending his wildly popular headline trek, and recently supported Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan on their summer runs.  

The Band Perry is a GRAMMY®, CMA, and ACM Award-winning trio known for their genre-blending sound and bold reinvention. With over 1 billion streams, 12 million singles sold, and global hits like the 9x Platinum “If I Die Young,” band members Kimberly Perry, Reid Perry, and Johnny Costello have captivated audiences worldwide. Their 2025 return marks a powerful new chapter, blending their Appalachian gothic sound with dynamic storytelling, and high-energy performance, while remaining rooted in Southern tradition.

Few relationships in life are more complicated than those among band members. Music history is filled with stories of the rise and fall of creative personalities, but the Randy Rogers Band is a unique brotherhood fueled by a shared passion for making great music and a strong commitment to each other. That bond forms the foundation for the new music on their latest album Hellbent, a high-octane collection of songs buoyed by the same fearless spirit and sense of camaraderie that has made them one of country’s most compelling bands.

In a business where bands come and go and membership is often a revolving door, the Randy Rogers Band has been together for more than 17 years. “Just like any other relationship, you have to pick your battles and have respect for each other,” Rogers says. “None of us know how to do anything else. This is our livelihood. It’s how we take care of our families. Years ago when we were really struggling and wondering how we were going to make it, there were some deep and emotional conversations that we all had with each other about if this is really what we all wanted and the decision was made a long time ago. The answer was yes then and the answer is still yes now.  It’s something we all believe in. This is our life’s work.”

The culmination of their musical journey thus far can be heard on Hellbent.  

“Creatively we all bring something different to the table and you can hear it in the records,” Rogers says. “You can hear people’s personalities in the records.”

It’s that blend of unique personalities that have fueled the Randy Rogers Band’s success for nearly two decades. 

For nearly two decades, Josh Abbott Band (JAB) have held strong as one of the most potent and vital forces in Texas country music. Fronted by singer/songwriter/guitarist Josh Abbott, the band has built an ardent following on the strengths of their fiery live show, wide-ranging instrumentation, relentless touring schedule, and seven acclaimed studio albums spotlighting their unique sound and honest songwriting. With three (3) RIAA gold-certified singles, JAB has found success while staying true to their independent spirit. 

JAB first formed at Texas Tech University in 2006 when Josh started playing with fraternity brother Austin Davis (banjo). Joining up soon after in 2008 was Edward Villanueva (drums, percussion) with others joining later down the road: David Fralin (2015, keys, mandolin), Jimmy Hartman (2018, bass, harmonies), Kris Farrow (2022, electric guitar, harmonies), Adam Hill (2022, fiddle, harmonies). 

Two decades and more than 4,000 shows into his career, Wade Bowen has become synonymous with country music, songwriting, and captivating live performances, and for good reason. An artistic descendant of American icons like Guy Clark, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Robert Earl Keen and more, Bowen is an important voice in a legacy of Texas troubadours stretching back more than 50 years. Texas Radio agrees, as he scored five awards at the 2025 Texas Regional Radio Music (T3R) Awards, including Male Vocalist of the Year and Single of the Year for the third year in a row.

Revered as one of the genre’s finest and most authentic modern voices, Bowen’s approach is rooted in tradition but also stands on the creative cutting edge. His focus remains on writing unique songs with a literary quality and shifting his sonic territory to match his life. More than a dozen albums have shown his musical diversity – including ten studio sets, four live collections, and an ongoing series of buddy-country hits with fellow Texan, Randy Rogers. 

Ontario native, Nashville-based singer-songwriter Meghan Patrick blends her tough-as-nails exterior with a casual, cool narrative, showing the world that women can be sexy, strong, and gritty. A back-to-back CCMA Female Artist of the Year with 19 CMAOntario Awards, Patrick’s latest album, Golden Child, peels back the layers of her journey through self-reflection and a deeper sense of authenticity. The title track hit the top 10 on Canadian Country Radio and continues to climb into the top 30 on US Country Radio. Her versatility and powerful storytelling set her apart as one of country music’s most compelling voices. 

Making modern country music with a refined edge, William Beckmann embodies timeless, sophisticated swagger, with songs built for the mainstream, but also built to last. With his first major label album, Whiskey Lies & Alibis, the young Texas native joins a retro revival in the modern format’s core, and pushes it further down the road. A student of the classics – from classic country to classic pop, classic rock, and even classic mariachi – Beckmann grew up in the border town of Del Rio, Texas, enamored with the classic cool of Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, and Frank Sinatra, plus the Eagles, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, George Strait, and the traditional Mexican music of his bilingual roots. Developing a deep, dark-honey baritone with natural vibrato, he first found a foothold on the Texas tour circuit, dressed to kill and with a timeless sound to match. Co-writing eight of 12 songs with elite hit makers such as Jessie Jo Dillion, Jesse Frasure, and Rhett Akins, Beckmann’s neo-classic signature is clear on Whiskey Lies & Alibis. With an organic sound defined by dusky baritone guitars and pedal steel, plus a rumbling, resonate vocal, it captures the vast loneliness of a windblown desert landscape, and the throbbing pulse of a honky tonk with equal power. And central to each track, lies the bitter sting of lost love. After playing more than 100 shows a year since 2022, Beckmann now returns to the road with a bold mission in mind: Not just to cosplay the classic country style, but to bring its values back, with head held high. 

Sharp storytelling. Gripping and gorgeous five-part harmonies. Arrangements that can swing between fun, engaging, and lively one moment and stirring, booming, and chill-inducing the next. These are the essential elements that make up the sound of The Wilder Blue, the Texas five-piece who put their own spin on rock-influenced country with their eponymous sophomore album.

Built around the keen storytelling voice of primary frontman Zane Williams, Paul Eason’s salient lead guitar, the imaginative tandem of drummer Lyndon Hughes and bassist Sean Rodriguez, and the striking, compelling mind of multi-instrumentalist Andy Rogers, The Wilder Blue are only beginning to scratch the surface of their potential.

Williams and Eason began toying with the idea of a new band in 2019 by seeking out a nimble set of collaborators. Knowing that they wanted to emphasize a rich vocal blend that could be replicated live, they soon enlisted Hughes and Rogers. When Rodriguez joined, it solidified the outfit as a cohesive unit.

Angie K is shaking up Nashville with her fresh blend of hard hitting country with a nod to her Latin roots. Her first bilingual single ‘Real Talk’ catapulted her on the country scene by making her a ‘Highway Find’ on Sirius XM the Highway. Since then, she has accumulated over 20 million+ streams, 500k+ followers, and was the only independent artist to play on the Nissan Stadium stage during the 2022 CMA Fest. She was recently named to the 2023 class of CMT’s ‘Next Women of Country’ and their “Listen Up” class of 2024. After making the cover of Spotify's 'Country Latino' playlist, Angie was featured in Good Morning America along with her hit single 'Laredo'. The success of the past year helped invite Angie into the prestigious Whippoorwill Arts Fellowship for 2024. Angie has shared the stage with artists like Big & Rich, Tanya Tucker, Sammy Kershaw, Trace Adkins, Melissa Etherige, Jake Owen and more. New record coming in Fall of 2024! 

Poised for a breakout year, emerging singer/songwriter Kevin Smiley’s highly anticipated debut single, “Paralyzed,” is out now. A raw and impactful reflection on the realities of depression and addiction, “Paralyzed” is the first taste of Smiley’s unique creative voice as he combines traditional country sounds with the perspective of a 20-year-old black man living in today’s world. He first shared portions of the song on social media last summer and has since received significant attention across platforms, garnering 20 million cumulative views to date.

Texas Female Artist of the Decade and nine-time Female Vocalist of the Year, Bri Bagwell is a force to be reckoned with—from her rousingly fun live performances to her trailblazing recordings, which have garnered her fourteen #1 singles on Texas Country Radio and counting. People Magazine raves, “Bagwell increasingly finds her name being mentioned amongst country music truth-tellers such as Ashley McBryde and Morgan Wade.

Will Jones has lived and breathed all things Country since he was half the height of a hound dog. Beginning his music career at just six years of age, Will started performing with his family’s traveling bluegrass band, The Cana Ramblers, and would go on to garner national notoriety for their final album release in 2009, No Expectations.

Since going his own way with a solo career as a singer-songwriter at the age of 17, Will’s music has taken him all over the United States performing with some of the biggest names across the country music spectrum.

Born in the Country Music Capital of the West—Bakersfield, California—Joe Peters was raised on the grit and glory of country life. From an early age, he was just as comfortable with a rope in his hand as he was with a guitar slung over his shoulder. At just 8 years old, he won his first rodeo and picked up his first guitar, strumming along to the sounds of Waylon Jennings, George Strait, and Merle Haggard—the very foundation of his musical soul.

As Joe shot up to a towering 6’5” in his teenage years, he transitioned from rough stock riding to team roping, competing across the West while fine-tuning his songwriting and playing for anyone who’d listen at rodeo grounds. Just as he was hitting his stride in the roping world, tragedy struck—his horse rolled over on him in a devastating accident. Forced into a long recovery, Joe turned even deeper to his music, writing and recording his first song at American Sound Recording Studio (now the Bakersfield Music Hall of Fame).

With the help of his roping partner Justin Pensinger, Joe fought his way back into the saddle and back into competition. The two became best friends, roping partners, and in 2013, qualified for the ACTRA National Finals. Music was always in the mix—every town they rolled into, Joe found an open mic and played. "The music bug had really gotten under my skin at that point," Joe recalls. "All I wanted to do was play, sing, travel, and rope!"

From the Rodeos to Rodeo Drive, Presley Tennant is the result of unequivocal talent and western ease. Dubbed a “vocal powerhouse” by Taste of Country, People Magazine states Presley is “quickly proving that she is a wild card in the country music industry.” With roots in Norco and boots in Nashville, Tennant combines California charisma with country charm, blazing her own trail and designing a sound that is all her own.  

Raised in Horsetown, USA just outside of Los Angeles, Tennant turned down a promising path filled with soccer opportunities to dedicate her time to music. With days filled with dance lessons, rehearsals and homeschooling, Presley found herself in the teenage all-girl pop group Five LPs, or Five Little Princesses. After the group fizzled out when she was 13, she continued down her path of pop music that she was familiar with, filled with intricate dance routines and vocal performances. At just 16-years-old, Presley made her national appearance on ‘The Voice’ and, inspired by Kelly Clarkson telling her to follow her heart, she made the move to country music where her roots truly lie. 

Filled with uncompromising integrity, the ‘it’ factor and a dream, it’s no surprise Presley Tennant provides an unforgettable high-energy show. Not only has she performed for crowds over 20,000, she has shared the stage with musical heroes Tim Mcgraw, Kelly Clarkson, Carly Pearce, Blake Shelton, Cole Swindell and more. 

With a heart as pure as her talent, Tennant’s desire to improve the world around her is palpable. When not onstage, she donates her time to animal organizations through her Riffs & Rescues charity initiative, where she performs live and raises awareness and funds for these organizations.
