ABOUT MICHAEL RAY
Michael Ray's debut single, "Kiss You in the Morning," was the only debut song by a country male to go #1 in 2015, and he recently followed that up with his second chart-topping tune "Think A Little Less." The singer/songwriter is now hitting the ground running with "Get To You," the first single from his upcoming second album. Raised in rural central Florida an hour from Orlando, but world's away, Ray grew up hunting alligators and fishing for tarpon at the end of white sand dirt roads. The child of a family full of musicians, he began his professional career before he was a teenager, graduated to the bar scene as soon as he could drive and hasn't let up on the pedal since.
ABOUT CHRIS LANE
Chris Lane continues to turn heads with "For Her," catapulting his devoted second single to #1 on the iTunes Top Country Songs chart following a special performance on season 21 of ABC's The Bachelor. The follow-up to his #1, GOLD-certified smash debut "Fix" - claiming over 35.8 million streams on Spotify and 8.3 million views on Vevo - both songs are featured on his Big Loud Records debut album, GIRL PROBLEMS, produced by superstar studio ace Joey Moi (Florida Georgia Line). Gaining recognition for his jaw-dropping falsetto vocals mixed with a smooth R&B-meets-country vibe, Lane was named one of MusicRow Magazine's 2017 Next Big Thing Artists and scored his first-ever nominations for the 2017 iHeartRadio Music Awards (Best New Country Artist) and the ACM Awards (New Male Vocalist of the Year). Lane's profile is on the rise thanks to his national TV appearances on Late Night With Seth Meyers and CONAN plus shout-outs from massive industry names like Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad), Selena Gomez, Florida Georgia Line, Lucy Hale, Daughtry and more. The Kernersville, NC, native has landed coveted opening slots on tours with Dustin Lynch, Rascal Flatts, and Tim McGraw and Faith Hill's long-awaited SOUL2SOUL TOUR. He is currently out on Florida Georgia Line's nationwide THE SMOOTH TOUR 2017.
