With the 2023 release of his 11th studio album, HIGHWAY DESPERADO, and his sold-out nationwide Highway Desperado Arena Tour, Aldean continued his \u201ccountry superstar status” (Variety<\/em>). The album earned the Georgia native his first career Hot 100 chart-topping hit with \u201cTry That In A Small Town\u201d- which earned Billboard Award nominations (2023) for \u201cTop Song Sales Artist\u201d and \u201cTop Selling Song\u201d- as well as the fan-favourite track \u201cLet Your Boys Be Country\u201d and current single, \u201cWhiskey Drink.\u201d Produced by longtime producer Michael Knox, Highway Desperado followed Aldean\u2019s double album, MACON, GEORGIA, which earned the singer\/songwriter praise for honing \u201cin on his vision for this era of his career\u201d and kicking off \u201chis career’s next era\u201d (The Tennessean<\/em>).

About Corey Kent:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPoised to be country\u2019s latest red dirt star\u201d (Rolling Stone)<\/strong><\/em>, Corey Kent, a proud husband and father, has become a decorated artist on the rise, growing from humble heartland roots into a Triple-Platinum certified No. 1 hit maker with one billion career streams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rising from the vibrant Red Dirt country scene as the embodiment of authenticity, Kent set his sights on Nashville as a teen, bringing his self-penned catalog of country-rock anthems with him. But after the pandemic coincided with the loss of his first publishing deal, Kent was forced to move to Texas and get a job on a paving crew to pay the bills, yet he stubbornly refused to call music quits, with honky-tonks and dancehalls on both sides of the Red River becoming his stomping ground. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fast forward a few years and the hit single \u201cWild As Her\u201d proved he was right all along. An untamed tribute to a free-spirited stunner, the track re-invigorated Kent\u2019s career as a now Triple-Platinum-certified No. 1 at country radio, and the lead single off his major label album debut, Blacktop<\/em>. Despite never cracking country radio\u2019s Top 40, Kent\u2019s trust-your-gut second single \u201cSomething\u2019s Gonna Kill Me\u201d went Gold, proving his message was connecting. And momentum kept building, with Kent hitting the road alongside Jason Aldean, Ashley McBryde, Parker McCollum and more. Next-big-thing accolades came in from CMT, Opry Next Stage and more, but even as Kent became the most played new artist on country radio for all of 2023, he kept the underdog, who-cares-about-conventional-wisdom mentality. And so did his fans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Kent, the point was that his fans have the same independent spirit he does, and he took that lesson into his next chapter. Settled into his ranch in Texas and intent on being fully present with his family while also achieving his dreams, Kent most recently released his sophomore major-label album, Black Bandana<\/em>,<\/strong> to critical acclaim, with MusicRow Magazine<\/em> describing the title track as \u201cgently but unrelentingly uplifting.\u201d Often seen with a black bandana around his neck, Black Bandana<\/em> holds great meaning for Kent – it\u2019s his rally cry. This album is about finding balance, keeping clear eyes on what\u2019s important \u2013 and waving that Black Bandana<\/em> for all to see.
