Country and Americana singer-songwriter Naomi Carman has signed with Big Machine Records.

The 23 year old Cincinnati native made her Big Machine debut during their annual CRS luncheon, where she performed a cover of Gene Vincent’s “Be-Bop-a-Lula” and her unreleased tune “Little Sister.”

“From the moment I met Naomi, I felt I’d met a timeless artist,” says Founder, Chairman and CEO Scott Borchetta. “Her depth and knowledge of her craft, her deep understanding of the roots of Country, Rockabilly and Rock ’n’ Roll, her uncanny ability to play practically any instrument, and her insanely original musical approach immediately had me hooked. And, I’m sure it will be the same for everyone else!”

“Been dreamin’ of this day ever since I was that little kid singing in those old honky-tonks, though I never imagined it would happen this way!” adds Carman. “So grateful to Scott, Big Machine Records for believin’ in me and my music! I’m excited to work hard, write and sing my heart out while creating something really special.”

Carman has built her fanbase from posting covers of her influences, including Loretta Lynn Patsy Cline, Elvis Presley and Jerry Lee Lewis. In addition to singing, she plays guitar, lap steel, piano and drums. Earlier this year, she joined Carter Faith on select dates of the “Cherry Valley Tour.”

Growing up, Carman performed with her father, Blair, in bars and festivals nationwide. In 2024, she inked with Big Machine Group songwriter and Haptic Management Founder Brent James. She is slated to release new music in the coming months.
