Innovator and “country-trap iconoclast” (Grammy.com) Willie Jones blasted on the scene with his critically acclaimed debut album Right Now and follow up album entitled Something To Dance To. Both are celebrations of it all: life’s highs and lows, the loves and losses, the starts and ends, and the connective tissue of just being human. Jones’ signature Louisiana hip-hop gumbo, the resulting sonic heartbeat reflects a man whose upbringing molded him into an innovator who bridges the Block Party and the Barn Dance. The rising artist serves as an ambassador for Ford Motor Company, McDonalds as well as hosting his own Apple Music radio show Crossroads. Jones has been covered by NPR All Things Considered, Forbes, Rolling Stone, E! News, PEOPLE, MTV and others, while performing at noteworthy festivals such as Stagecoach, CMA Fest, and Lollapalooza. Rolling Stone boldly proclaimed Willie Jones “seems an awful lot like the future of country music.” His early musical interests spanned everything from gospel, pop and R&B but he gravitated towards the country and hip-hop vibes he proudly embraces since the age 14. Possessing a gift for melody with an authentic country voice are the cornerstones of his talents, as his lyrics speak to both traditional and a genre expanding audience. His metaphors and similes are fresh to country ears yet are entrenched in the core values synonymous with Country Music. Willie Jones is signed to The Penthouse Records and Warner Chappell Publishing.
