Big Loud Texas has signed another act to its growing roster with the addition of Austin-based band The Droptines. The band shared the news from stage over the weekend when opening for Whiskey Myers at Nashville’s sold-out Ascend Amphitheater.

“When we met JR [Jon Randall] and Brendon [Anthony], it just felt like ‘these are the guys,’ and then it’s incredible to know we also have the expertise of someone with a career like Miranda [Lambert]‘s to lean on,” shares The Droptines. “We just felt like if we are going to do this, we’re going to do it with them.”

“I can’t express my excitement to have The Droptines call Big Loud Texas home,” shares Big Loud Texas Co-Founder and President of A&R Jon Randall. “I absolutely love these guys and their music. They are the hardest working band out there and I can’t wait for everybody to hear what we’ve been up to in the studio.”

To celebrate the signing, The Droptines make their label debut today with the release of “Take Too Much.” Written by frontman Conner Arthur and produced by Randall at Arlyn Studios, the tune is driven by a vocal growl reminiscent of Springsteen, reflecting their influence from rock heroes like Tom Petty, and songwriters James McCurty, Mike McClure and more.
