About Dustin Lynch:
With four consecutive No. 1s, two Top 5 albums, PLATINUM-level certifications and back-to-back summers on one of the biggest tours in country music, Dustin Lynch has been on a steady path toward superstardom. The Tennessee native is taking it back to his roots with his current chart-rising single, “Small Town Boy,” off his upcoming third album. A soulful country groove built for windows-down cruising with a special someone, the track’s cool-handed declaration of love is a natural follow-up to Lynch’s hot-and-steamy No. 1 showstopper “Seein’ Red.” From catapulting to the top of the charts with traditional country (“Cowboys and Angels”), party-rockers (“Where It’s At,” “Hell of a Night”) and simmering romance (“Mind Reader”), Lynch adventurously continues to explore his musical evolution. He has impressively racked up over 85 million views on YouTube/VEVO, 175 million plus streams on Spotify, soared to #1 on the MTV Music Meter and sold over 3 million digital singles to date. Following two consecutive nationwide tours with Luke Bryan and a run last fall with Chris Young, Lynch is currently the featured supporting artist on Florida Georgia Line’s 2017 DIG YOUR ROOTS TOUR and will join Brad Paisley’s world tour beginning in May. Realizing his long time dream of creating a fashion line, Lynch launched Stay Country. The line of accessibly-priced men’s and women’s shirts, hats, and accessories, all emblazoned with the distinctive Stay Country logo, can be found online at https://www.staycountryclothing.com.

Bryant’s grandfather played piano for Roy Orbison and Waylon Jennings. His uncles co-founded the group Ricochet.

His guitar-wielding Top 10 debut single “Take It On Back” spent 15 consecutive weeks on the CMT Hot 20 Countdown, seven weeks on the GAC Top 20 Country Countdown, and was a Top 20 Most Watched Video on VEVO TV Nashville. Internationally, the single was a Top 20 hit in Canada and earned the #1 spot on Australia’s CMC Countdown. Bryant brings these hits to life across the globe in 2017 as he tours as part of Brad Paisley’s WEEKEND WARRIOR WORLD TOUR, including select international dates across the US, Canada and Europe.
About Lindsay Ell:
Named one of The Huffington Post’s “Top Country Artists to Watch,” Lindsay Ell is a triple threat: accomplished musician, unique vocalist and songwriter. The young Calgary native learned to play guitar while traveling with her father to country-bluegrass camps as a young girl. Ell honed her craft as a musical stylist and songwriter after being discovered by BTO and The Guess Who’s Randy Bachman (“American Woman” / “Taking Care of Business”) who discovered her at the age of 13. The multi-instrumentalist was soon touring alongside the likes of Luke Bryan, Buddy Guy, The Band Perry and Keith Urban as well as wowing audiences as Carrie Underwood’s guitar player live on the 50th Annual CMA Awards and holding her own alongside icon Melissa Etheridge on Skyville Live. A 2016 CMT Music Award and Canadian Country Music Award nominee, Ell exhilarated audiences from coast-to-coast as part of the 2016 CMT Next Women of Country Tour and is featured on Brad Paisley’s 2017 WEEKEND WARRIOR WORLD TOUR. Ell’s highly anticipated digital-only debut EP, WORTH THE WAIT (produced by GRAMMY winner Kristian Bush of Sugarland), debuted at #8 on the Nielsen Soundscan Current Country Albums Chart.
