Drew Parker, A native of Covington, Georgia, schooled on ‘90s country giants like Ronnie Dunn, Travis Tritt, Randy Travis and Alan Jackson, Parker’s led a recent resurgence in organic country hits – they’ve just been for other artists.

Writing tracks like Luke Combs’ BMI Song of the Year “Forever After All,” “Doin’ This,” which recently landed Parker his first GRAMMY nomination for Best Country Song, and Jake Owen’s “Homemade” have established his signature style, using whip-smart lyricism and actual country instruments to pen quality-driven Number Ones. It’s that same wordplay that drives Parker’s solo work, too.

The title track of his "While You're Gone" EP claimed No.1 on SiriusXM’s The Highway and named Parker the MusicRow “DisCovery Award” of the week. It’s the first true look at an artist who’s already developed a sound and style all his own. He continues to prove that with recent releases “Raised Up Right”, “Little Miss Saturday Night” and "At The End Of The Dirt Road" with more unreleased music waiting in the wings.

With his Grand Ole Opry debut, GRAMMY and CMA Awards nomination and a BMI Awards win under his belt, his original dreams are coming true.
