Country music superstar Cole Swindell, who Rolling Stone has called “a proven hit-maker,” has solidified himself as a hit songwriter, recording artist and headlining performer over the past twelve years. Cole was recently inspired to write “Make Heaven Crowded” after hearing a speech from Erika Kirk , the widow of Charlie Kirk , which resonated with him due to the recent birth of his own daughter and a desire to encourage more kindness, love and prayer in the world. The song was No. 1 on iTunes country chart and #2 on the all-genre iTunes chart. The debut single, “Forever To Me,” from his fifth studio album, Spanish Moss, became his 13 No. 1 singles as an artist – 14th as a songwriter. Twelve of Swindell’s 13 No. 1 singles have been certified Platinum by the RIAA with three being 3X Platinum (“Chillin’ It,” “You Should Be Here,” and “She Had Me At Heads Carolina”) and two being 2X Platinum (“Ain’t Worth The Whiskey” and “Break Up In The End”).
Swindell, who The Tennessean called a “hard charging competitor armed with a mastery of the art of the craft, tirelessly looking for ways to improve his work” charted three back-to-back, Platinum-certified, multi-week No. 1 hits off his fourth studio album, Stereotype: “Single
Saturday Night,” “Never Say Never” (with Lainey Wilson) and the five-week 3x Platinum chart-topper “She Had Me At Heads Carolina” that garnered three ACM Awards for Single of the Year and Song of the Year (as songwriter and artist), an iHeart Music Award for Country Song of the Year and received a nomination for Musical Event of the Year for “She Had Me At Heads Carolina” with Jo Dee Messina for the 57 th CMA Awards. He released a special duet remix of his smash “She Had Me At Heads Carolina” featuring Messina that produced multiple award nominations and is included on his deluxe album Stereotype Broken, which also includes his
2023 Top 10 single “Drinkaby.”

With a style rooted in the charm of his Central-Florida home, Sony Music Nashville's McCoy Moore makes country music so radiant and relaxed it should come with SPF 50. Through beaming baritone vocals and a warm sonic glow, the singer-songwriter embodies the land of perpetual summer, complete with its easy-does-it code of humble sincerity. On his debut album, Sunshine State, the Lakeland native shows Florida is much more than a vacation destination – it’s the place that made him the artist he is. A lifelong country fan schooled on late ‘90s and early 2000s radio, Kenny Chesney (his first concert), Tim McGraw, and Keith Whitley were the soundtrack to travel baseball and day trips to the beach, before a chance encounter with Luke Combs in 2017 helped propel Moore to Nashville at 19 years old where he quickly found his creative footing. Now on Sunshine State, and the expanded deluxe version that includes his debut radio single "Forget We Ever Met," modern muscle and a throwback country spirit tap the nostalgic heat of long-gone summers, while Moore’s vocal carries the buzz of an incoming thunderhead. Heavy bass lines and steel guitars hang thick like Spanish Moss off an old Live Oak (much like the one on the album’s cover, which was shot in his grandparents’ garage). Wrapping nostalgic real-life stories in a rich, resonate country baritone, Moore has accumulated more than 32 million global streams while touring with HARDY, Kip Moore, Chase Rice and, later this year, Ashley Cooke. This spring, Moore made his Grand Ole Opry debut following a surprise birthday invite, a bucket list moment for the rising entertainer. But throughout it all, Moore never veers far from the Sunshine State.
