Representing a new generation of hitmaker, Conner Smith is an emerging Country artist building on breakout success, whose growing catalog reflects an instinctual mix of craftsmanship and mass appeal. A Nashville native carrying on Country’s proud singer/songwriter tradition, the GOLD-certified 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 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 EP and fast-passed “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 THE STORYTELLER EP, out now, finds Smith turning a creative page and reaching what he considers his “natural” artistic state. A five-song contemplation and reflective-roots standout, filled with thoughtful passion and coming-of-age clarity, the project arrives on the heels of Smith’s headlining THE STORYTELLER TOUR. Smith is also set to reunite with tourmate Luke Bryan to directly support his Farm Tour this fall.

Previously being recognized for how his live show “defines country music,” (Music Row), Marlowe will soon kick off his “Mid-Twenties Crisis Tour” which begins in New York City on Jan. 23. The tour will feature a total of 12 dates, each in a different state. Additionally, Marlowe will hit the road with Bailey Zimmerman this June as an opener for Zimmerman’s “New To Country Summer Tour.”

Rooted in the classic skills of country music’s past – but finding new ways to deliver three chords and the truth – Dylan Marlowe is an emerging Sony Music Nashville artist proving tradition and convention are very different things. Raised in Statesboro, Georgia, the avid outdoorsman’s unique creative path began with an equally-diverse soundtrack, ranging from Eric Church and Kenny Chesney to Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Good Charlotte and Blink-182. A self-taught writer fusing heartland storytelling with hard-edged intensity, Marlowe broke out with an attention-grabbing cover of Olivia Rodrigo’s “drivers license” in 2021, changing the lyrics to reflect his own backwoods story and resulting in more than half-a-million TikTok followers. Marlowe went on to drop a series of self-penned singles and EPs like “Record High” and Dirt Road When I Die, eventually racking up 328 million global career streams as an artist, while co-penning Jon Pardi’s Number One hit, “Last Night Lonely.” Most recently, Marlowe released his debut album, Mid-Twenties Crisis, earning praise as a “debut album that will act as a highly effective springboard for a storied career in country music,” (Holler). Additionally, Marlowe has continued to cultivate an audience on tour with Dan + Shay, Cole Swindell, Hardy, Brantley Gilbert and more. Standing apart from his peers while staying true to himself, the rising star reminds country fans that authenticity doesn’t have to be boring. And in fact, the expected might be overrated.
