“One of my long-term goals is to keep my sound one step ahead of the rest; I want to be what everyone else is chasing,” and with that in mind, 25-year-old singer/songwriter and RCA Nashville recording artist Josh Dorr hit the ground running with a bold and ambitious mindset for the release of his 2014 major-label debut, the four-song Josh Dorr – EP.

After spending nearly a decade writing songs in Nashville (and landing cuts for artists like Craig Morgan, Garth Brooks, and The Judds), Steven Lee has taken his place in the spotlight with his own major-label debut single, “Raised By a Good Time.” The catchy track celebrates youth and “all the stupid things” Olsen did in his early days. Fans can expect his full-length album to drop this year.

Cam is a fresh and heartfelt new force in country music whose prose feels like home and sounds like the truth. The singer’s country roots trace back to her grandparents ranch in Southern California and her storyteller lyrics walk a romantic line between worldly wisdom and bubbly charm. Judging by her growing fan base this mixture has struck a chord. Check out Cam’s debut Welcome to Cam Country—EP.
