Travis Denning
Bio
A native of Warner Robins, Georgia, singer/songwriter Travis Denning’s single “After A Few” which he co-wrote, is climbing the country radio charts, and follows his Top 40 debut single “David Ashley Parker From Powder Springs”. Denning, who has been spotlighted by Rolling Stone for his “everyman worldview that evokes his small-town, big-hearted upbringing and a sound that is a wide tent – fun, modern country with rock-guitar licks”, was recently selected as an Opry NextStage recipient and CMA KixStart Artist, as he makes his mark within the industry. Inspired at a young age, Denning developed a love for country, pop, rock and heavy metal and started playing local bars from the age of 16, as he built a strong following from his distinctive songs and raucous guitar solos. Denning moved to Nashville and secured outside cuts by Jason Aldean, Justin Moore, Michael Ray and Chase Rice. A prolific writer with an unquestionable stage presence, Denning caught the attention of Universal Music Group and signed a record deal in 2017. Denning has previously opened shows for Cole Swindell, Alan Jackson, LANCO and is set to hit the road this fall with Riley Green beginning September 5 in Statesboro, Georgia and will run through the end of the year. When Denning is not touring, he is in the studio working on his debut album. For more information, visit travisdenning.com.

JORDAN DAVIS CRUSHES THE COMPETITION ON THE ROAD.
Jordan Davis keeps in shape on the road by playing basketball, pickleball and golfing, but don’t think he’s a pushover and will let you win at any sport he is playing. He’s a pretty competitive fella.
“When it comes to – don’t get it twisted – we are playing pickleball half for exercise, because nobody wants to go do cardio, so you might as well play something while you’re getting cardio in,” says Jordan. “The other half is I am trying to absolutely crush every other person on the other side of that net. I, I am. I am competitive. I like to win. I don’t like to lose, and it boils over sometimes. We have to have some sitdowns in the greenroom and be like, ‘Hey-I didn’t really mean that.’ It boils over on the golf course. If I’m gonna do something, I want to win at it. It’s pretty competitive out there (laughs), so yes (I’m competitive).”
The Louisiana native is closing in at the top of the country charts with his latest hit, “Tucson Too Late,” and he takes his Damn Good Time World Tour to Charlotte and Wilmington, North Carolina, as well as Jacksonville, Florida this weekend.
Audio / Jordan Davis says he gets pretty competitive when he's playing sports -- like pickleball and golf -- when he's out on the road.

PARKER McCOLLUM RELEASES MUSIC VIDEO IN TRIBUTE TO HIS MOTHER.
Parker McCollum has released a performance music video for the song “Things I Never Told You,” from his sold-out headlining show at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas. In the clip, photos of his mother are interspersed between live shots from the arena.
He chose “Things I Never Told You” to put on his Never Enough album because it completely reminded him of his mother.
“My buddy Taylor Phillips sent this song to me one day. He wrote it with Lynn Hutton and Monty Criswell and just one time through…I didn’t even listen to the whole song, but halfway through after the first chorus, I said, ‘I’m in. I’m singing that song,” recalls Parker. “It reminded me so much of my mom and I knew she would love to hear it. I didn’t tell her anything about it. I had her come to one of tour rehearsals this year and played it for her there, full band with the whole production and everything and the empty amphitheater. It was kind of cool. But I cut that just for her and thought it was such an amazing song. There’s a line in it that said, ‘I kept a well-hidden can of Skoal in the console of my Chevy.’ I actually really did in high school. I had a secret compartment in the center console of my Chevy truck that I kept a can of dip in. So just it kind of hit home and it’s just a great song.”
The Texas native will take his Burn It Down Tour to Salina, Kansas on Thursday (May 2nd), Rogers, Arkansas on Friday (May 3rd) and Columbia, Missouri on Saturday (May 4th).

“This song, it’s the only song on the record I didn’t write. I wanted to cut one outside song for this record. People send me songs all the time and very, very, very rarely does one ever really catch my attention and stand out, and my buddy Taylor Phillips sent this song to me one day. He wrote it with Lynn Hutton and Monty Criswell and just one time through…I didn’t even listen to the whole song, but halfway through after the first chorus, I said, ‘I’m in. I’m singing that song.’ It reminded me so much of my mom and I knew she would love to hear it. I didn’t tell her anything about it.
