Bradley Gaskin thinks of his grandpa every time he hears a great country song. It was his Grandpa LeRoy “Bo” Hammac who first introduced him to the honky-tonk side of country through the voice and music of George Jones. That discovery of the heart-worn George Jones songs his grandfather played was the fuel to get him on the road to country music. 

Following his solo-written Top 40 breakthrough with “Mr. Bartender” and having his songs recorded by other artists, Gaskin returned home to Duck Springs, Alabama, where he embraced honest work — hanging drywall, working in a sawmill, and serving as a janitor at his daughter’s elementary school. 

Today, he enters a new chapter as the lead artist for 30A Life Records, with music produced by legendary hitmaker Keith Stegall, who says, “Singers are a dime a dozen, but exceptional artists like Bradley are true music makers.” With that endorsement — and Gaskin’s grit and passion for country music, already showcased on the sacred stages of the Grand Ole Opry and Ryman Auditorium — the rising star is proving he has both the heart and the horsepower to leave a lasting mark on the genre.

Billy Lawson was born and raised in the Muscle Shoals area of Northwest Alabama in a little town called Zip City. His next door neighbor was studio musician, Junior Lowe, who played on some of the early R&B classics by artists such as Percy Sledge, Wilson Pickett, Clarence Carter and Aretha Franklin. When Billy was nine or ten years old, Junior would let him sit in and sing with his band at the Ponderosa Club on the Alabama-Tennessee state line. This club was owned by W.R. Morris, the author of a biography on the legendary Tennessee Sheriff Buford Pusser, which was later made into a motion picture titled “Walking Tall.” W.R. still likes to brag about being the first person to “discover” Billy’s talent.

Another friend of the family who influenced Billy was Carl Montgomery, the co-author of the truck driver hit “Six Days on the Road.” Carl was the brother of Earl “Peanut” Montgomery, writer of 38 singles by George Jones, and Melba Montgomery, star of the Grand Ole Opry.

Billy knew three chords on his Silvertone and could sing along with Charley Pride, Buck Owens and Merle Haggard by the time he entered grade school. Wherever there was live music, that’s where you could find Billy soaking it all up like a hungry sponge.

After high school Billy started working the Alabama-Tennessee state line club and dance hall circuit with his band. One night Larry Hamby a CBS representative came to a Muscle Shoals Club and signed Billy “on the spot” to an album deal on Epic records. The legendary Sam Phillips was there that night to put in a good word. But, as luck would have it, Billy’s key man at Epic was moved to the West Coast and put in charge of the Pop and Rock division of the label. Along with several other acts, Billy was lost in the shuffle. Meanwhile, Muscle Shoals film maker Tonya Holley was casting for Orion Pictures. She had Billy to come down and audition in Selma, AL, for an up-coming movie starring Jessica Lange, Tommy Lee Jones and Powers Boothe. Billy and his band got the part and Jessica Lange got an Oscar for best actress in “Blue Sky.”

During all of these experiences, Billy continued to write songs--songs that were good enough to get the attention of Sony/Tree publisher and producer, Don Cook. Don signed him one week and by the next week, Billy had cuts on three major artists. Within a little over a year Billy had two..#1 hits...”Learning As you Go” by Rick Trevino and “I Left Something Turned On At Home” by Trace Adkins also “Irresistible You” A..#20 by Ty England. Billy's song "He Ain't Even Cold Yet" recorded by Gretchen Wilson was played in an episode of HBO's The Sopranos this past season.

Billy was one of the 14 John Rich handpicked songwriters for CMT's "Gone Country" Hosted by John Rich & Starring Jermaine Jackson, Taylor Dane,Bobby Brown, Maureen McCormick, Sisqo, Dee Snyder, Diana DeGarmo, Carnie Wilson & Julio Iglesias Jr.

Billy's songs have been recorded artists such as Ronnie Milsap, Tim McGraw, Travis Tritt, George Strait, Sammy Kershaw, Delbert McClinton, the Oak Ridge Boys and Shenandoah, and many more. 

Country music traditionalist and Texas native Nathan Belt began carving out his skills as a country music performer in his teens, traveling and performing across the North Texas Opry circuit into his early 20s. He would soon move to Nashville, Tennessee when signing his first major publishing deal with Acuff-Rose Publishing in 2001. In 2013 he founded what soon became a fan-favorite band in Music Valley and on Nashville’s famous Broadway strip, Nathan Belt & the Buckles.

Since 2021 he’s been a featured performer and host on Nashville’s famous General Jackson Showboat AND you can still find him sharing his love of traditional, classic country music in well-known honky tonk's and music venues across Nashville. 

Most recently he's collaborated with longtime friend and songwriter/producer, Bryan Simpson ("Better Than I Used To Be", "Everything She Ain't", "A Guy With a Girl", "Werewolf"). With Bryan's wisdom and oversight, he's helped to bring Nathan’s love and respect for classic country front and center with the first EP release "A Song In The Making", available now anywhere you stream country music. 

Nathan hopes to bring his brand of country music to a honky tonk near you and hopes you'll help spread the word!
