ABOUT COLE SWINDELL:
Country music superstar Cole Swindell released his fourth studio album, Stereotype, to massive success. The project charted three back-to-back, Platinum-certified, multi-week No. 1 hits: “Single Saturday Night,” “Never Say Never” (with Lainey Wilson) and, most recently, his five-week chart-topper “She Had Me At Heads Carolina” has garnered three ACM Awards for Single of the Year and Song of the Year (as songwriter and artist) and an iHeart Music Award for Country Song of the Year. In 2022 Swindell spent a total of 27 weeks in the Top 5 of the country singles chart with “Never Say Never” (8 weeks) and “She Had Me At Heads Carolina” (21 weeks). He released a special duet remix of his smash “She Had Me At Heads Carolina” featuring Jo Dee Messina which garnered an ACM Award nomination for Musical Event of the Year and is included on his new deluxe album Stereotype Broken, which also includes his current rising single “Drinkaby.” In the 10 years since his debut on Warner Music Nashville, Swindell has racked up an impressive 12 No. 1 singles as an artist – 13 as a songwriter – as well as 12 certified Platinum singles (one single at 3x Platinum and four at 2x Platinum), a Platinum-certified debut album (Cole Swindell), a Platinum-certified sophomore effort (You Should Be Here) and a Gold-certified third entry (All Of It). The Georgia hitmaker has over 5.2 BILLION global career streams. His massive, GRAMMY-nominated hit “Break Up In The End” was named the 2019 NSAI Song of the Year. Swindell earned two nominations (Musical Event of the Year and Music Video of the Year) for “Never Say Never” at the 56th CMA Awards. Swindell officially became a headliner on his own in 2018 with his Reason To Drink Tours, and his 2022 Back Down To The Bar Tour. He joined Thomas Rhett on the Home Team Tour last summer 2023 and again headlined last fall on his Twelve Tour.
ABOUT CONNER SMITH:
Representing a new generation of hitmaker, Conner Smith is an emerging Country artist building on breakout success, who’s growing catalog reflects an instinctual mix of craftsmanship and mass appeal. A Nashville native carrying on Country’s proud singer/songwriter tradition, the GOLD-selling entertainer wields a sturdy, salt-of-the-earth vocal and first found success capturing youthful energy, but now begins a new chapter of growth. Parlaying a teenaged publishing deal into his 2022 debut DIDN’T GO TOO FAR, Smith’s Top 40 arrival “Learn From It,” viral smash “I Hate Alabama” and GOLD-certified hit “Take It Slow” earned the rising star a legion of followers and “artist to watch” accolades from Spotify, Amazon Music, Pandora, Opry NextStage, Music Row and CMT, who dubbed the promising talent “an unstoppable force to be reckoned with.” After hitting the road with Thomas Rhett, Cole Swindell, Chase Rice and Parker McCollum, Smith followed up with a jam-packed 2024 which kicked off with his full-length album SMOKY MOUNTAINS, pairing sharp hooks and timeless Country sonics with a sincere nod to his love for Appalachia. Featuring the GOLD-certified, multi-week international chart-topper “Creek Will Rise” and “masterclass in storytelling” (All Country News) “Meanwhile In Carolina,” Smith continued his year with earning his first ACM Awards nomination, plus releasing the all-acoustic SMOKY MOUNTAINS SESSIONS and fast-paced “Steal My Thunder” (feat. Tucker Wetmore) featured in the summer blockbuster Twisters: The Movie and on the film’s star-studded soundtrack, with more new music still to come. His recent project THE STORYTELLER, which arrived on Friday (10/4), saw Smith turning a creative page and reaching what he considered his “natural” artistic state. A five-song contemplation and reflective-roots standout, filled with thoughtful passion and coming-of-age clarity, the project followed Smith’s headlining THE STORYTELLER TOUR. Smith had also recently reunited with tourmate Luke Bryan to directly support his Farm Tour. For a full list of tour dates and more, visit ConnerSmithMusic.com.
