Multi-instrumentalist Chris Janson chats with CMT about how his new
dream-big single, “Buy Me A Boat,” conquered iTunes Country hitting No. 1
within hours of airplay on national-syndicated “The Bobby Bones Show”
and without label support. Also known, as RS Country raves, “for a
mesmerizing stage presence that most arena-headlining artists would kill
for,” he’ll perform the working-man anthem acoustically from his former
jobsite, Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge.
ABOUT CHRIS JANSON:
The dynamic multi-talented
artist/songwriter/harmonica player has built a solid reputation in Music
City for being a thrilling live performer and earned the respect of the
Grand Ole Opry where he has performed more than 60 times. With
undeniable charisma, Janson brings a blue-collar, working-class,
boot-stomping hillbilly redneck attitude to bear on every live
performance, earning him opening slots for Florida Georgia Line, music
legends Merle Haggard and Hank Williams Jr., as well as regular
appearances on the Grand Ole Opry. The talented songwriter, who began
writing at just 18 with an impressive group of musicians from the likes
of Guns N’ Roses to the esteemed Bill Anderson, co-wrote Tim McGraw’s
fastest rising single of his career, “Truck Yeah.” The Perryville,
Missouri, native first broke onto the Nashville music scene when he
landed a year long, four show a day gig at Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge on
Nashville’s Lower Broadway. Janson is currently focusing on a heavy
summer touring season and writing songs for his debut album.
Janson currently has a full schedule of
dates where “Buy Me A Boat” is sure to be anticipated and echoed by the
crowds. This weekend, he can be seen at the Grand Ole Opry followed by
Country Thunder (Florence, AZ) on April 11 and Stagecoach (Indio, CA) on
April 26.
