George Birge
RECORDS Nashville artist-songwriter George Birge hits #1 at Country radio with “Cowboy Songs” after supercharging the charts with his first #1 single, “Mind On You.” The addictive hit landed on Billboard's all-genre Hot 100 list and is from his debut album, George Birge: Mind On You. Adding in fresh attitude and slow-rolling swagger, Birge tapped charlieonnafriday and Kidd G for a hot-blooded remix of the track. Boasting over 119 MILLION streams across his catalog, American Songwriterpraises, “George Birge has a talent for taking a simple concept and turning it into an in-depth song,” as PEOPLE hails that he’s “Always Meant for the Solo Spotlight.” Named Billboard’s Country Rookie of the Month (January) and one of Nashville Lifestyles’ “Artists You Need To Know,” Birge’s star is on the rise with his TV debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. The Austin, Texas, native just wrapped his summer run on Luke Bryan’s MIND OF A COUNTRY BOY TOUR. He's previously shared the stage with Sam Hunt, Parker McCollum, Brantley Gilbert, Jake Owen, Matt Stell, Gary Allan, Scotty McCreery, and more.
John Morgan
With a style that’s defined by melodic grit and a craftsman’s approach to songwriting, John Morgan brings a blue-collar toughness to country that’s pulled straight from the only life he knows. Hailing from a tiny town called Sylva, deep in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina, John grew up immersed in bluegrass tradition and even toured the festival circuit each summer in a family band, before diving into songwriting, inspired by six-string legends from Tony Rice to John Mayer. Now, “a Music City songwriting star” (Tennessean), he has earned cuts with Jon Pardi, Dustin Lynch, Thomas Rhett and an outstanding 16 for Jason Aldean, including the superstar’s #1 songs – “Trouble With A Heartbreak” and the GRAMMY® nominated, ACM Single of the Year “If I Didn’t Love You” with Carrie Underwood, along with Aldean’s latest single at country radio “Whiskey Drink” currently climbing the charts.
Praised by People as an “accomplished songwriter…establishing himself as a solo artist intriguing enough to watch,” Aldean signed the sought-after, powerhouse artist “with guitar skills that will knock your cowboy boots off” (Nash News) to Night Train Records, his imprint with BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. Having made his Grand Ole Opry debut and logging hours on the road opening for Aldean, ERNEST, Riley Green and Jameson Rodgers, the 2024 “Artist to Watch” (All Country News)released his critically acclaimed debut EP, Remember Us? in 2023 that launched his barn-burner fan-favorite anthem “Friends Like That.” Hitting the road with Nate Smith on his 2024 “Through The Smoke” Tour, the party starter smash – now featuring Jason Aldean – is his debut single at country radio, currently surging into the Top 20. With the Tennessean praising the “live concert favorite whose banjo and steel underpinnings still allow room for a hard-rocking core like Dierks Bentley’s catalog of hits,” John’s breakout radio single has Billboard applauding, “Broken hearts aren’t typically pleasurable, although the breezy melody and pulsing guitars on ‘Friends Like That’ make loneliness sound attractive.”
