Rising country duo Neon Union has signed with Red Street Records.

Comprised of Leo Brooks and Andrew Millsaps, the duo was formed by Jimmie Allen, who produces and manages them alongside Aaron Benward as JAB Entertainment’s inaugural artist.

Brooks grew up in Miami and has collaborated with artists such as Pitbull, Lauryn Hill, Jennifer Lopez, Mary J. Blige, CeeLo Green and John Legend. Meanwhile, Millsaps grew up in North Carolina and has been writing songs since he was 13.

Allen introduced the two and, together as Neon Union, Brooks and Millsaps are bringing a new sound to country, with 808 kick drums married to a traditional country lyric and anthemic pop melodies.

“Ever since I heard Leo and Andrew play separately, I just knew they would make a perfect duo,” Allen shares. “They both have something really special on their own, and when they come together, it’s just magic.”

“I couldn’t be more excited to welcome Neon Union as the newest Red Street Records artist,” adds Jay DeMarcus, CEO of Red Street Records. “They just have that infectious quality that captivates a room, and we knew right away that we wanted to sign them. I can’t wait to watch these guys do big things.”

“It’s pretty surreal to be able to say we have a record deal,” the duo notes. “We are so thankful to Jimmie, Aaron, Jay, Dan [Crocket], and so many others for believing in us. We can’t wait to start sharing our music with the world!”

New music is expected from Neon Union later this year.
