Preston Cooper Named Next iHeart ‘On The Verge’ Artist

July 16, 2025/by Lauryn Sink

The Valory Music Co.’s Preston Cooper has been named iHeartCountry’s latest “On The Verge” artist with his debut single, “Weak.” The program is designed to elevate emerging artists and places him among past honorees including Luke Combs, Sam Hunt and Lainey Wilson.

“Weak,” the first song Cooper wrote in Nashville alongside Brett Warren, Brad Warren and Lance Miller, officially impacted airwaves in May and has been climbing the charts since. The 22-year-old Ohio native is set to release his debut album, Toledo Talkin’, on August 29. Cooper recently wrapped his run as direct support for Kameron Marlowe’s “Keepin’ The Lights On Tour” and is out on the road this summer for select dates of Riley Green’s “Damn Country Music Tour.”
