For Big Loud Texas traditionalist Jake Worthington, country music is in his DNA. The La Porte, Texas native was raised on his grandfather's porch performances of Ray Price, Merle Haggard and George Jones, and soon picked up his own Gibson acoustic to realize the breadth of his soon-to-be-classic, wide and wild voice. Now, Worthington breathes fresh life into dance halls, beer joints and ballrooms from Texas to Tennessee with his growing catalog – his sophomore album When I Write The Song is out now with Miranda Lambert collaboration “Hello Shitty Day,” “I’m The One (feat. Marty Stuart),” viral “It Ain’t The Whiskey” and more. Captivating the masses with his honky-tonk stylings, the singer-songwriter hits the road this year on his headlining Intent To Tonk Tour, as well as opening dates with Luke Combs, Luke Bryan, HARDY, Parker McCollum, Riley Green and Ian Munsick. “I believe in country music as much as I believe in my next breath,” Worthington declares, and “blame it on my raising, but I think there ought to be room for country in country music.”

An undeniably talented singer-songwriter, Big Loud Texas artist Julianna Rankin was raised on classic country and the blues. Discovered by musical heroes Miranda Lambert and Jon Randall, the rising Texas native makes her label debut with "Bad Habits and Good Horses" featured in the season finale of Landman via Paramount+. Her influences range from Keith Whitley, Bobbie Gentry and Waylon Jennings to Bonnie Raitt, Carole King and James Taylor. Her journey into the industry began in 2018, when she dove headfirst toward discovering her artistry while attending Texas A&M. Since then, Julianna has made her home in New Braunfels, Texas, to which she credits a strong circle of talented musicians and local collaboration for recent successes. Now charting her own path, there is more new music on the horizon from the powerhouse talent.
