Granger Smith has joined the artist roster at Broken Bow Records Music Group. Smith has cultivated a huge social media following of nearly four million fans and consistently sells out headlining tours and breaks attendance and merchandise records. His brand new single, “Backroad Song,” is already making waves at country radio, and his full-length debut for the label will be produced by Frank Rogers. 

“I tell unsigned acts looking for deals all the time to create demand—prove to labels you can connect with an audience,” says BBR Music Group’s Executive Vice President Jon Loba. “Granger is the epitome of doing just that and is doing it nationally—not just regionally. His touring and merch business is already out-performing many signed acts with multiple hits. We are so excited to add Granger to the BBR Music Group family and look forward to amplifying the rabid demand he has created for himself and his alter ego Earl Dibbles Jr.”
