ABOUT DILLON CARMICHAEL
Hailed by Rolling Stone as “country music’s most convincing young star since Stapleton,” Dillon Carmichael isn’t just an artist; he’s a force of nature.
Born and raised in Burgin, Kentucky, the 6’4” troubadour first rose to fame in 2018 on the strength of his critically acclaimed Riser House debut, the Dave Cobb-produced Hell On An Angel, which prompted NPR to praise his “deep holler” and the New York Times to declare that his voice moves “with the heft and certainty of a tractor trailer.”
Dates with everyone from Lynyrd Skynyrd and Trace Adkins to Dwight Yoakam and Justin Moore followed, as did festival appearances from Faster Horses to Tortuga and Artist To Watch nods from the likes of Billboard, Rolling Stone, Pandora, and more.
Carmichael followed it up in 2021 with Son Of A, another neo-traditional gem that’s racked up more than 50 million streams across platforms (Carmichael’s catalog boasts more than 160 million streams collectively) and yielded similarly glowing reviews for its feel-good mix of wry humor and raw heart.
His latest, rowdy single, ‘Drinkin’ Problems,’ which was produced by Jon Pardi, is currently climbing the country radio charts, while Carmichael remains busy on the road, headlining his ‘Son Of A’ Tour and opening for the likes of Brooks & Dunn, Luke Combs, Cody Johnson, Brothers Osborne and more throughout 2023.

The Arkansas-native just notched his 12th No. 1 with “You, Me, and Whiskey,” a smoldering duet with Priscilla Block. Over his 10+ year career, Moore’s No. 1 hits have included “Point at You,” “Lettin’ The Night Roll” “If Heaven Wasn’t So Far Away,” “Small Town USA” and “Till My Last Day,” as well as PLATINUM-certified albums and singles.

He also recently took on a new role as co-host on 103.7 The Buzz’s morning drive-time sports talk show, “Morning Mayhem,” where he spends his weekday mornings dishing out his never-ending sports knowledge on-air.

ABOUT CHRIS JANSON
“Live legacy in the making” (Rolling Stone) Chris Janson is a platinum-selling recording artist, celebrated entertainer, multi-instrumentalist and award-winning singer/songwriter. The ACM Award- winner has collected prestigious accolades that place him amongst country music greats.
Both his inspiring hit “Drunk Girl” and his chart-topping, 4x Platinum smash “Buy Me A Boat” were named among NSAI’s “Ten Songs I Wish I’d Written” lists – making Janson one in a handful of the industry’s most elite artists to earn the title multiple times.
“Buy Me A Boat” was also recognized as the iHeartRadio Music Awards Country Song of the Year.
“Good Vibes,” the flagship single from his 2019 album Real Friends, and follow-up “Done” each topped the country charts, bringing his total of No. 1 songs to four – and the hit-maker is entering a new chapter with his fifth studio album THE OUTLAW SIDE OF ME, out June 16th.
Working alongside Oscar-nominated and GRAMMY-winning producer Julian Raymond (Glen Campbell, Cheap Trick, Insane Clown Posse), Janson’s new album, The Outlaw Side of Me, is a full-spectrum look at one of country music’s most promising rising stars.
From the outlaw, to the rowdy rocker, the romantic, and the full-throttle performer, this record is Chris Janson from top to bottom.
The lead single from the new record, “All I Need Is You,” is impacting country radio now and is rapidly climbing the charts.
