With an impressive career, including touring with acts like Blake Shelton and achieving a Billboard #1 for "We Went," written for Randy Houser, John recently signed with Sony Music and secured a management deal with Narvel Blackstock. His single "Try Saying Goodbye" has surpassed 60 million streams, debuted in the top 5 on the Apple Hot Country Chart, and received recognition from Rolling Stone. John's debut album, "Always Gonna Be You," gained critical acclaim, reaching the iTunes top-selling albums chart. From writing the first Hootie & The Blowfish song since 2005 to appearances at the Grand Ole Opry, John King's musical journey promises continued success in 2024.
