Columbia Nashville/River House Artists singer and songwriter Jameson Rodgers continues to blaze his trail to stardom following his breakout, Gold-certified No. 1 debut hit “Some Girls.” The track helped earn Rodgers a Top 5 spot on Billboard’s 2020 Top New Country Artist chart, the 2020 MusicRow Discovery Artist of the Year Award and a spot in the outlet’s Next Big Thing Class of 2021. Rodgers’ new single “Cold Beer Calling My Name” features labelmate Luke Combs and has been celebrated as one of the 11 Best Country Songs of Summer 2020 (Country Now) and praised by Rolling Stone as “the escapist chaser that many of us can use these days.” Initially making his mark on Music City as a behind-the-scenes songwriter, Rodgers has co-penned Platinum-selling hits for Florida Georgia Line (Top 10 single “Talk You Out of It”) and Chris Lane (No. 1 smash “I Don’t Know About You”), along with “Camouflage Hat” on Jason Aldean’s most recent album 9 and the title track of Luke Bryan’s latest release Born Here Live Here Die Here. Rodgers spent 2019 supporting Combs on the sold-out BEER NEVER BROKE MY HEART TOUR, playing more than 60 arenas and amphitheaters, and is currently working on his debut full-length album with producers Mickey Jack Cones, Chris Farren, and Jake Mitchell.
