Ryan Hurd has signed to Combustion Masters, the label arm of Combustion Music.

Hurd has accumulated more than one billion on-demand career streams, received nominations for CMA Awards, ACM Awards, CMT Music Awards and earned multiple No. 1 hits as a singer and a songwriter. He has cuts with Blake Shelton, Maren Morris, Jordan Davis, Luke Bryan, Lady A, Jon Pardi, Bailey Zimmerman, Kid Laroi, Marshmello, Thomas Rhett, Tucker Wetmore, Josh Ross and more. The multi ASCAP and BMI Country Award winner has toured with the likes of Sam Hunt, Old Dominion, Thomas Rhett, Darius Rucker and Lady A in addition to his own headlining dates. His sophomore album, Midwest Rock & Roll, is out now.

Hurd is managed by The Core Entertainment and booked by CAA.

“I’m really proud to make music in Nashville,” Hurd says. “Chris and Falcon have always been great friends to me and getting the chance to work with them is something I’ve looked forward to for a long time. I’m excited about what we’re making and can’t wait for everyone to hear what we have been working on.”

“I have been a fan and friend of Ryan’s for many years, and now to get to work directly with him to promote his incredible artistry is a privilege,” Combustion Founder / President Chris Farren shares. “I feel certain he is making some of the best music of his career, and couldn’t be happier to stand beside him on this latest journey.”

“Ryan has built an exceptional career with great songs, real artistry, and a creative vision that continues to reach new audiences,” Chief Zaruk and Simon Tikhman, CEOs and Co-Founders of The Core Entertainment, add. “We’re incredibly proud to be working alongside him as he steps into this next chapter, and Combustion’s belief in songwriting and creative freedom make them the perfect partner.”
