Artist Bios

Brett Eldredge
Platinum-selling singer/songwriter Brett Eldredge has established himself as one of country music’s smoothest-singing vocal powerhouses, biggest radio heavy-hitters and most entertaining, arena-packing showmen. His current hit “Love Someone” is Top 20 at country radio and is the third single from his self-titled record, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart and the all-genre Top Albums Sales chart. The record has yielded Gold-certified hits “Somethin’ I’m Good At” and most recently “The Long Way.” The latter tune lends its name to his critically acclaimed and first ever sold-out headlining tour. Eldredge’s live shows feature his six chart-topping, Gold- and Platinum-certified singles spanning three albums. The Paris, IL native released his Christmas record Glow in October 2016 and earned an additional No. 1 song on the Holiday Music and Adult Contemporary charts with “Baby It’s Cold Outside,” a duet alongside GRAMMY-winner Meghan Trainor. The deluxe edition, featuring five brand new evergreen tracks, was released in October 2018. bretteldredge.com

Mac McAnally
A record-breaking 10-time CMA Musician of the Year, Mac McAnally is a member of the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, Mississippi Musicians Hall of Fame and Alabama Music Hall of Fame. The renowned songwriter, singer and instrumental virtuoso has authored dozens of hit records for other artists, several of which peaked at No. 1. His own recording career began with a debut hit single “It’s A Crazy World” (1977) and continued most recently with his 14th album release Southbound (2017), an ambitious orchestral adaptation of many of his best-known songs. He has written hits for Alabama, Jimmy Buffett, Kenny Chesney, and Sawyer Brown and has studio credits that include albums by Toby Keith, Linda Ronstadt, George Strait, Dolly Parton, Brad Paisley and Amy Grant, among others. macmcanally.com

Jessy Wilson
Years before she toured the world alongside Alicia Keys, wrote songs with John Legend, belted the Southern rhythm and blues with Muddy Magnolias and kicked off a solo career with 2019’s Phase, Jessy Wilson grew up in Brooklyn, listening to the diverse sounds that filled her family’s apartment. Those influences come together on Phase, the GRAMMY-nominated songwriter’s first release as a solo artist. Written and recorded with producer Patrick Carney—drummer for the Black Keys—Phase brews up its own storm of soulful sound. Gritty and progressive, Phase reintroduces Jessy Wilson as never heard her before: undiluted, unaccompanied and unleashed. jessy-wilson.com

Dylan Scott
It’s a long way from the outskirts of Bastrop, LA to the No. 1 spot at country radio, each mile marked by passion, perseverance, and sweat. Scott’s romantic platinum-certified hit “My Girl” went to No. 1 and his Gold-certified “Hooked” was a Top 5 smash. His new album is Dylan Scott Deluxe Edition, which includes three powerful new tracks to join the original album’s 13 songs. Born into a musical family, Scott’s father played guitar for stars like Freddy Fender and Freddie Hart. By the time Scott arrived in Nashville to start chasing his own dreams, he was still only in high school, but his drive was obvious for all to see. Scott’s self-titled album debut landed at No. 5 on Billboard’s Country Albums chart, helping him gather over 535 million on-demand streams and 4 million stream equivalent songs in the process. He made a triumphant Grand Ole Opry debut and launched a headlining tour, selling out some of the nation’s biggest clubs for crowds of over 3,000. dylanscottcountry.com

Alejandro Aranda performing as Scarypoolparty
Following a buzzworthy season on ABC’s “American Idol,” singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Alejandro Aranda, known professionally as Scarypoolparty, came in second on the show and since then has been working tirelessly to prepare his debut project with Hollywood Records. Recently, Scarypoolparty sold out his first headline tour in under 12 minutes including sold-out shows in Brooklyn, Los Angeles and two hometown shows at The Glass House in Pomona, CA. The run of live dates kicks off in Washington, D.C. on July 8 at DC9. Aranda, who hails from Pomona, CA, formally began creating music just four years ago and proved to be one of the most inventive and original artists to date on “American Idol,” captivating not only the judges but millions of viewers nationwide.  “USA Today” called Aranda a “viral sensation” and, to date, his American Idol audition has over 10.5 million views.

The Whigs
Formed in Athens, Ga. in 2002, The Whigs have released five studio albums and toured the world with acts such as Kings Of Leon, The Black Keys, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Drive By Truckers, Hold Steady, Band of Skulls, Dead Confederate, and Wax Fang. They have become late-night television regulars, having appeared on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” “Late Show with David Letterman,” “Late Night with Conan O’Brien,” “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon,” and “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” The band has performed at American festivals such as Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, Bonnaroo, and Sasquatch, as well as Japan’s Fuji Rock and Europe’s Rock Werchter, T in the Park, and Oxygen Festivals.
