Vincent Neil Emerson is a torchbearer of the Texas songwriter tradition. He channels the straightforward truth-telling and resonance of his songwriting heroes in Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark, and Steve Earle into something fresh and distinctly his own. Where his 2019 debut Fried Chicken and Evil Women proved that he is one of the most reverent students of country and Western musical traditions, his follow-up LP, the masterful Rodney Crowell-produced Vincent Neil Emerson, which is out June 25 via La Honda Records/Thirty Tigers, is a brave step forward that solidifies his place as one of music's most compelling and emotionally clarifying storytellers. His songs are cathartic and bluntly honest, never mincing words or dancing around uncomfortable truths.

Raised in Van Zandt County in East Texas by a single mother of Choctaw-Apache descent, Emerson's world changed when he first heard Townes Van Zandt's music. "To hear a guy from Fort Worth say those kinds of things and make those songs was pretty eye opening," the now 29-year-old songwriter says. "I had never heard songwriting like that before." He's spent the better part of the past decade honing his songwriting and performance chops playing bars, honky-tonks, and BBQ joints across the Fort Worth area. His first album Fried Chicken and Evil Women, which he wrote in his mid-twenties and came out on La Honda Records—the label he co-founded that now includes a roster of Colter Wall, Local Honeys, and Riddy Arman—is a snapshot of his growth as a songwriter and stage-tested charm with songs like "Willie Nelson's Wall" and "25 and Wastin' Time" expertly combining humor and tragedy.

These marathon gigs and the undeniable songs on his debut introduced Emerson to Canadian songwriter Colter Wall, who quickly became a close friend and took him on tour. With Wall's audience, and sold out theater shows on runs with Charley Crockett, Turnpike Troubadours, and many others, Emerson found his niche. "It took a guy from Canada bringing me on tour for people to actually start paying attention," says Emerson. "Before that it was a grind like anything else, just trying to make a living." Crockett is another staunch early supporter of Emerson's and covered Fried Chicken highlight "7 Come 11" on his 2019 LP The Valley.

Like every working musician, 2020 pulled the rug out from under Emerson. With the pandemic shuttering live music venues and cancelling promising tours, he processed the upheaval the only way he knew how: by writing his ass off. "At the beginning of quarantine, I was really frustrated with everything else going on," says Emerson. "Everything was falling apart around me, and I didn't know what to do." He took to his writing shed and came up with the single "High On Gettin’ By," a gorgeous song full of self reflection and resilience: the most autobiographical thing he's ever written. He sings, "I got my first child on the way / And the bills are all unpaid / I should have finished high school / Got a job and learned to save / But the words keep on fallin’ / And the highway keeps on callin’ / To my pen."

That song proved to be a turning point for Emerson. "After I wrote it, the floodgates opened up for me in my songwriting and emotionally," he says. " Songwriting has always been a therapeutic thing for me. So I just started writing more from the heart." Allowing himself to be open and revealing some of the most intimate details of his life was a scary, yet freeing, prospect for Emerson, especially on the raw and devastating "Learnin' To Drown," which addresses his father's suicide. "I've been trying to write a song about my father's passing for a while," he says. "I was just having a hard time processing that emotionally. Before I was always trying to find a way to kind of dance around it and not really give too much away. But there's no beating around the bush here." He sings, "Well there ain’t much that lasts too long / All the rights that I took wrong / All the lefts that still ain’t gone / They will be here / Here in my sad bastard song."

Elsewhere, on "The Ballad of the Choctaw-Apache," he sings of how in the 1960s, the Choctaw-Apache tribe of Sabine Parish in Louisiana was forced to sell "180,000 acres of ancestral land" to the government, uprooting them from their home. Emerson pulls no punches in his narration of the historic injustice, channeling the essence of traditional folk songs. He sings, "Well you take away their home / And you claim what you don’t own/ Well I guess it’s just the American way." Emerson explains the track: "This happened not too long ago and it affected my grandparents and my family directly. I've always strayed away from trying to write political songs, but this is more about human rights. For those people who were stripped of their land like that, it's still tough."

His intense and productive writing sessions produced ten finished songs over the course of just a couple of months, a body of work so personal that he knew he would have to name the final product Vincent Neil Emerson. These demos caught the attention of Texas country and folk icon Rodney Crowell, who signed on to produce and record the LP. "Rodney is a hero of mine," says Emerson. "He wanted to make something that serves the songs, as opposed to making a record trying to put focus on production or the playing. It was an honor to work with him." Crowell had similar high praise for Emerson: "if he grows on the public the way he’s grown on me, it’s possible young Vincent will plant the flag of his [songwriting] forebears firmly in the consciousness of a whole new generation." At the studio, Emerson tracked the songs with a crack team of session players put together by Crowell. "Because of them, we were able to get those songs in one take," he says.

You can hear that no-frills approach on the barnstorming "High on the Mountain," a bluegrass tune that highlights Emerson's versatility as a performer and depth as a lyricist. On first listen, the track opens with upbeat fiddles and blistering guitar feels, but Emerson's voice achingly sings of heartbreak, loss, and irrevocable change: "I pulled into Austin‘ / Cause Fort Worth ain’t the same." Opener "Texas Moon" grapples with home after so many days away on tour: "I been missin’ home / But I just can’t ever stay / Well it don’t feel like ramblin’ / 'Til ya take it day by day." Emerson is never overly sentimental, and across this album, he makes a point to just say how he feels in the most straightforward and real way he can.

"I think I've always gravitated towards artists that are honest about what they're doing," says Emerson. "It's the most important thing because people have a chance to connect to a little more if you're telling the truth."

Nashville's most unpredictable hit maker ERNEST is “The Charmer” (MusicRow), a triple threat talent and one of Music City's on the rise artist/writers that's changing the status quo. As a chart-topping songwriter, he fuses influences ranging from Eminem to George Jones, creating a twist-heavy verse style that's become his signature, proving its mettle, and earning him six #1 hits to date. The eccentric free spirit and 2022 CMA Triple Play Award winner launched his debut single to country radio “Flower Shops” feat. Morgan Wallen in January to 88 first week stations, the #1 most added single of the week, and is Top 20 and rising now. His debut full-length album of the same name - Flower Shops (The Album) – is out now, showing off the more classically country side of his craft.

ERNEST appeared alongside 90s country legend David Lee Murphy and labelmate Ben Burgess on HIXTAPE: Vol. 2 track “Red Dirt Clouds” last fall, and his podcast Just Being ERNEST is in its third season, hosting guests like Keith Urban, Diplo, Jason Aldean, Bobby Bones, and Craig Wiseman, with many more to come.

J.R. Carroll gained his gospel pipes on Sunday mornings, leading the small-town Okie church choir by pianoand voice. After finding a group of friends to sing along with, Carroll adopted the acoustic guitar and wrotewhat became his debut EP, “LongStory Short.” The set of songs resonated with fans of Tyler Childers,Jason Isbell, John Moreland, and Carroll’s close friend Zach Bryan. Since the EP’s release, Carroll has been playing shows of all sizes. He currently accompanies Zach Bryan asBryan’s touring keyboardist. When he isn’t on tour with Bryan, Carroll is writing at home in Tulsa, Oklahoma or playing his own shows around the United States.Carroll's lastrelease, "Raging in the Dark," reflects an indie-rock influence, while holding dear the tender,honest, and heart-felt lyricism that fans expect from Carroll. This latest release draws influence fromartists like Ryan Adams, Kings of Leon, and the Avett Brothers. Upon release, singles from Raging in theDark havebecome staples on editorial playlists such as Spotify's own "Indigo."J.R. has released his highly anticipated debut album, “Dark Cloud” on December 6th. It’s a perfect blendof throwback with fresh appeal with indie, traditional country, and folk writing stylings.

It’s been a breakout year for Corey Kent. In addition to being named a CMT Listen Up Artist, as well as a member of The Opry Next Stage Class of 2023, he released his major label debut album, Blacktop, featuring the No. 1, Platinum-certified hit, “Wild as Her,” and has already surpassed 750 million career streams. The album was a nod back to the Oklahoma native/Dallas based country star’s many miles driving on the blacktop to hone his craft taking music to the fans anywhere he could play. Never one to rest on his laurels, the road warrior is keeping his foot on the gas in 2024 and will be burning up the blacktop once again with his headlining “Black Bandana Tour.” After numerous sellouts on the 2024 Black Bandana Tour in places like New York, Boston, Atlanta and more, Kent announces the 2nd leg of his tour where he will be joined by Lori Mckenna, Lanie Gardner, and Tyler Halverson on select dates. The headlining international tour will kick-off in Fort Worth, TX on Jan 18, and trek across both the U.S. andU.K. with stops in Denver, London, Dallas, Cleveland, Chicago and more.Drawing inspiration from The Eagles, Keith Richards, Turnpike Troubadours and more, Kent’s bandana-wearing Rock ‘N’ Roll spirit comes to life on the stage. And after over a decade ofpaying dues, his career has not been without starts and stops ... that perseveranceserves as the inspiration behind the tour’s name. “It all started with a bunch of Oklahoma boys piling into a red van called ‘Rooster’ and taking any gig we could get. We believed our live show would speak for itself, and we’d hustle to the merch table after our set to sling t-shirts in hopes of making enough to fill up the van to get to the next show. All those sleepless nights in the van, all the opening slots, all themiles, all the shirt slinging, all the blood, the sweat and the tears PAY OFF TODAY!” Kent reflects. “Today, I’m stoked to announce our first ever headline tour starting here in the USA and then hopping across the pond! Time to make some memories.”Kent finds himself musically at the intersection of rock infused country, heartland values, and red dirt grit. Still in his 20’s, he has built an incredible fanbase, developed his live show for the last 15 years, and is positioned as one of country music’s next breakout stars. “For us, the black bandana has been what we’ve picked up in times when everyone thought we should wave a white flag to surrender,” Kent furthers. “I’ve spent a lot of years raising my black bandana high and letting 'em know that I wasn’t giving up that easy. I’m so excited to still be doing what I love and can’t wait to get on the road this fall and see all those black bandanas waving back at me.”

In 2023 the adventure-seeking road veteran joined Parker McCollum on tour in addition to playing festivals and in front of 15,000+ fans a night on Jason Aldean’s 42-city “Highway Desperado” tour.In 2024 Corey was direct support for Parker McCollum’s Burn It Down Tour before launching his first headline tour which had several sellouts.

Drake White grew up singing in his church’s youth choir in Alabama before becoming one of Country music’s most spirited innovators, earning four Top 40 hits and traveling the country on multiple nationwide tours. His 2013 debut single “Simple Life” introduced his brand of Country Soul, which he cemented with 2016 debut album SPARK followed by the EPs ‘Pieces’ and ‘Stars.’ In August 2019, he collapsed on stage due to a hemorrhagic stroke, and doctors told him he might never perform again. After undergoing a series of operations to repair his Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM) and months of physiotherapy, White has proved them wrong, returning to the road to spread his incredible positivity to his fans. He’s currently on tour with Whiskey Myers and will return to his headline THE OPTIMYSTIC TOUR in Spring 2022. He just released his new album, THE OPTIMYSTIC, an inspiring glimpse into the journey he has taken over the past few years. White has received accolades including Rolling Stone’s 10 Country Artists You Need to Know, The Grammy’s Artist of Tomorrow and the British CMA Awards’ International Song of the Year and has shared the bill with Country music superstars like Luke Bryan, Eric Church and Zac Brown Band.

As a recent graduate from Indiana University, Hank Ruff has been building a name for himself throughout the state of Indiana while being in college. After his latest EP "Hellbender" went #1 on the iTunes all-genre chart, Ruff hopes to further this momentum by beginning to play all over the midwest and beyond. Now that he is finished with school and pursuing music full-time, Ruff has dreams to bring his more neo-traditional brand of country music all over the country.

Hank was born and raised in Southern Indiana, and has been playing country music around the state since the age of 11. Named after Hank Williams Sr., Ruff began playing the mandolin and playing at bluegrass jams, and eventually picking up the guitar and learning classic country songs like "Hey Good Lookin" and "Mama Tried". Ruff started playing with his dad's band, "The Dew Daddies", and soon after that he began writing songs with his dad by the time he was in high school. Most of Ruff's catalogue is comprised of songs that the two wrote together, including "If the Boot Fits". Filled with steel guitar and fiddle, these songs embody what Ruff and his music is all about: combining elements of the traditional country sound with modern influences, and bringing a little more of the classic elements of the distinctive country sound back into mainstream country music.

Not Quite Brothers is Central Iowa's fastest growing cover band. Formed in 2018, the band quickly became known for their huge sound, eclectic setlist and ability to enhance any party. Fans of all ages agree... "it feels like I am watching the band they are covering in their heyday" and "It's so cool to see a younger generation playing my favorite songs on stage!"

Sam Johnson (vocals) and Isaac Johnson (guitar) are twins and although Cooper Corcoran (guitar), Ben Schmelzer (drums) and Nathan Klein (bass) are of no relation to each other, these five fellas are as tight as brothers… but not quite.

Made up of three different but complementary voices, country band Restless Road (Zach Beeken, Garrett Nichols and Colton Pack) is “one of the most intriguing and exciting acts of the year” (Wide Open Country). Praised by People, Taste of Country, Billboard, and more, the band’s powerhouse harmonies and soul-baring lyrics have accumulated over 300 million cumulative career streams and amassed a following of over 5 million on their social media platforms. As NBC’s TODAY host Hoda Kotb put it, “That harmony…you feel it in your soul.”

Last year, the band released their debut album Last Rodeo. The 18-track album features buzzworthy tracks “Last Rodeo,” “I Don’t Wanna Be That Guy,” “Sundown Somewhere,” “On My Way,” their Sirius XM The Highway #1 hit “Growing Old With You” and fan favorite “Bar Friends.”

This year already, Restless Road has been touring on their headline Last Rodeo Tour selling out New York City’s Gramercy Theater, Nashville’s Brooklyn Bowl and London’s Lafayette and more as well as played the UK’s C2C: Country to Country Music Festival. The band will hit the road later this year with Brett Young as well as returning to the UK & Europe for their headline tour.

They have performed on ABC’s The Bachelor, and has been featured by CMT, EXTRA, TODAY, and more and was named as one of Spotify’s Hot Country Artists To Watch and Opry’s Next Stage Artists.

With all signs indicating Restless Road as a contender for best new vocal group, its members continue to write, sing, and perform together as they take the next steps down country music’s long and winding road.

A lot has happened in the nearly three years since Logan Mize released his last full-length studio album Welcome to Prairieville. Mize made his Grand Ole Opry debut in April 2022 and was invited back to play the Opry again that December. He’s released multiple extended play projects including “Prairie Tapes Vol 1” recorded and produced entirely at his studio in Andale, KS and a duet project with his wife Jill Martin (also a Kansas-native singer-songwriter) dubbed ‘The Mizes’. He’s given listeners a Christmas record and multiple collaborations with artists such as Jessie James Decker, Sam Grow, Adam Hambrick and Grace Leer.

In addition, Mize has crisscrossed the country on headlining tours and shared a stage with country legends from Eric Church to Jamey Johnson to Sawyer Brown. He’s created his own brand of a crowd-sourced acoustic tour that brings an intimate and up-close show to small towns across America.

It’s been a busy three years.

Mize’s sixth full-length studio album Her Heartland was driven by several singles released in the last year. These singles anchor a record that’s an evolutionary step in blending country and heartland rock.

“The songs we've recorded and released over the past year felt cohesive like they should be on an album. That's the way I still like to listen to music so I feel like it should be presented that way,” said Mize.

The title track ‘Her Heartland’ opens the record with a baritone guitar groove and an instant homage to the small-town Kansas life that shaped Mize’s childhood and career: “She’s the dust trails, on that one road out of town”. The record is distinctively Logan Mize, but listeners will hear some surprises all the way to the last track ‘The World Just Keeps Getting Better’ which brings back the signature baritone groove in a witty, cheeky ode to the wild world we’re living in.

“In my opinion this is the most melodically pleasing album I've ever released. It still has some punch to it but in a much more subtle way than previous projects,” said Mize.

Mize pushed himself vocally on this record more than most of his releases; he’s (half)jokingly acknowledged that some of the tracks are exceptionally difficult to sing live. All that work in the studio rewards listeners with powerful tracks that present authentic vignettes of Mize as a person and artist.

“I think this is the first record I can listen to my vocal all the way through and not hear a moment I regret. Whether it's a harsh tone, wishing I had picked a different key or comped another take. I like the vocal all the way through on this one,” said Mize.

As far as careers for an independent artist go, Mize has outlasted and outworked the status quo. Her Heartland is a record that offers a genuinely unique sound that will appeal to brand-new listeners and decade-long fans alike.

Mize grew up in rural Sumner and Sedgwick counties in Kansas and after 13 years in Nashville moved back to Andale, Kansas where he currently resides with his wife Jill and children Lincoln and Violet. Mize’s studio and merchandise shop sits between the post office and liquor store in downtown Andale, just a few minutes from his home. When he’s not writing, recording or touring, Mize helps out on the family farm and loves coaching his kids’ sports teams. Several music videos and countless social media posts have been captured in and around Andale, giving followers an unfiltered view into the authentic life of a small-town kid turned singer-songwriter.

Mize’s 2021 single ‘Grew Apart’ was recently certified as his second RIAA Gold Record following his break-out hit, ‘Better Off Gone’. He’s logged over 350 million streams and toured across America, Canada and Europe.

Looking back on Mize’s nearly two-decade career and ahead at what’s next, it’s clear that the music has been the fundamental element that’s kept fans engaged. There’s no smoke and mirrors, no tabloid controversy, no fake social media persona; when it comes to Logan Mize, what you hear is what you get, and ‘Her Heartland’ is another record that will keep his listeners coming back.

After an explosive arrival and a series of grassroots hits, Hudson Westbrook is now taking his place among a new generation of country singer-songwriters. Self-taught and proudly rough-around-the-edges, the rising star made his splash debut with “Take It Slow” in 2024 (while still enrolled at Texas Tech) and is now pushing ahead, revitalizing the organic country-rock of the Red Dirt revolution – but refusing to be held down by his roots. Hailing from the small town of Stephenville, Texas, and raised on everything from George Strait to gangsta rap, he began playing guitar in 2020 and wrote his first song after enrolling in college in 2023. "Take It Slow” was one of the first songs Westbrook ever wrote and its edgy vocal charm and warm country-rock buzz made it a bonafide hit. Westbrook followed with the windows-down anthem “Two Way Drive” and the propulsive new single, “5 to 9” – a showcase of the young star’s song-crafting growth, on top of his innate skill. “5 to 9” was joined by the narrative stunner “Johnny Walker” and followed by “Dopamine,” which brings out the essence of youthful love and connection juxtaposed with the typical college lifestyle. Hudson's latest single, "House Again," his take on a heartbreak anthem. Intent on taking the Texas country spirit far beyond the state line, non-stop travel to meet concert demand includes headlining dates and a tour supporting honky-tonk hitmakers Midland in late 2024, with more new music and shows on the way.

Unfiltered. Unconventional. And above all, unapologetic. Those are the defining traits of a whole new generation of Country star – and Spencer Crandall is one of them. As one of Country’s most progressive new talents, self-made and as dynamic as they come, Crandall has no time to say “sorry” for his raw, soul-baring stories. Driven toward greatness, he’s got no remorse for his big dreams, and pulls no punches with his ever-evolving sound. The Nashville based artist has spent years combining pop’s untamed energy with the confessional lyricism of Country, opening up territory no one before him even knew existed – and with his ambitious new 20-track album, Western, the frontier expands again. Growing up in Denver with a tight knit family, the creative powerhouse was taught hard work and dedication, and learned his lessons well – even playing football in college. But when injuries ended his career, the standout athlete was officially out of his comfort zone. Fully embracing his natural, genre-defying instincts, with ultra-smooth vocals, deeply-personal themes and hot-blooded performances, Crandall now counts 1.2M monthly Spotify listeners, 250M total career streams, more than 2.6M followers on TikTok, and fan engagement so off the charts it drives sold-out shows around the nation. He released three albums before Western, made his Grand Ole Opry debut in 2022, and continues pushing toward the ultimate goal of a sold-out stadium performance – Western is just the next step.

In 2019, he unveiled the Medicine Man EP and in 2021, he released the SÕL Sessions EP. After piling up tens of millions of streams, packing hundreds of shows, and landing syncs on the likes of Yellowstone, “Take Me Home”, and Fire Country, “Beautiful Lies”. With Tanner’s bare-it-all approach to songwriting, his music might just say everything you need and more.
