Granger Smith ft Earl Dibbles Jr.

Over the course of nine albums, at a time when the music industry is undergoing a top-to-bottom transformation, Granger Smith has been building a career that is truly groundbreaking. With sold-out national tours, a social media following of more than four million, and YouTube views exceeding 35 million, he has amassed an audience that is purely organic and rabid. He has continually searched for new and innovative ways to connect with his fans and —one by one, room by room — built a national following, which also caught the attention of Nashville’s powerhouse label-group BBR Music Group. It is this dynamic path to success and national demand that recently landed Granger as the flagship artist, along with Trace Adkins, of BBR’s Music Group’s newest imprint, Wheelhouse Records.
With the release of the 4X4 EP (May 4, 2015), Smith is taking the next step in a voyage that is both visionary and classically old-school. The EP, a preview of Smith’s Wheelhouse Records full-length album debut coming early next year, was introduced with the single “Backroad Song,” which sold over 32,000 downloads in its first week of release and entered the iTunes Country Singles chart at Number Two, the iTunes Canada Country Chart at Number One and the Billboard Country Digital Sales Chart at Number Four. Mainstream country radio has heavily supported “Backroad Song” as the track was the second most added single for two consecutive weeks with 89 total station adds (over 53% of the combined reporting panel). Granger has been tapped as an iHeartCountry Radio “On The Verge” artist and for CBS Radio’s competitive “Launch Program.”
