About Jon Langston:
The epitome of a grass-roots country star, 32 Bridge Entertainment/EMI Records Nashville talent Jon Langston gives new credence to the 10-year, 10,000-hour rule of mastering oneâs craft. Arriving with a Gold-certified splash via the homespun, lost-in-love ballad âForever Girlâ in 2013 â the first song he ever wrote â Langston has spent the ensuing decade on a mission to grow as both an artist and man, working with some of the genreâs modern icons. A Georgia native schooled on â90s-country heroes like Alan Jackson, plus classic rock, Southern rap, R&B and more, his efforts have produced three EPs, a No. 1 all-genre iTunes debut (âWhen It Comes To Loving Youâ) and more than half a billion global streams â plus a 2022 Grand Ole Opry debut, sold-out headline shows and a spot on mentor Luke Bryanâs annual tour. Wielding a warm vocal buzz drenched in raspy Southern soul, and a modern-country sound blending warmth with in-the-moment muscle, Langstonâs long-awaited debut album, Heart On Ice, is set for a September 8th release, marking his next step from open mics to countryâs elite. Featuring 14 songs â 11 of which he co-wrote â and produced by Jody Stevens, Jacob Rice and Brad Wagner, the concept album infuses his country-radio roots with a fresh electricity, and adds a bold sense of maturity to the singer-songwriterâs catalog of party anthems and ballads built on a wounded-but-still-beating heart. Early releases like âWhiskey Doesâ and âAinât No Cowboyâ proved his knack for a romantic hook has only sharpened since âForever Girl,â while âHeart On Iceâ serves as a showcase of the intention Langston brings to both music and life â and a hint toward deep-feeling hits yet to come. Now savoring life like a glass of top-shelf bourbon â and making country music with the same barrel-aged patience â Langston is currently featured on Luke Bryanâs Country On Tour, and can be found headlining shows across the nation.
