Nashville, TN – March 24, 2016 – Curb
Records is proud to announce the signing of Jerrod Niemann to the
artist roster. Known for chart-topping hits such as “Lover, Lover” and
“Drink To That All Night,” the signing combines two of Country Music’s
most well-known brands.
“One thing that Nashville has always been proud of is its heritage and
I’m lucky enough to be a part of the most historic independent record
label in the music industry and wear my Curb jersey proud,” the singer
said in a statement. A Kansas native, Niemann first made a name for
himself as a songwriter, with several cuts from the iconic Garth Brooks,
including the 2005 hit “Good Ride Cowboy.” His prowess as a tunesmith
led to the chance to make music of his own, and he definitely made the
most of that opportunity. His breakout single – 2010’s “Lover, Lover,”
became one of the most-played songs of the year, topping the singles
chart while on the way to being certified Platinum. His follow-up, “What
Do You Want,” also hit the top ten and was certified Gold. Other hits
in the Niemann catalog include radio staples such as “One More Drinkin’
Song” and “Drink To That All Night,” which became one of the most-played
songs of 2013. The singer has been on the road this year with his new
labelmate at Curb, Lee Brice.
Just as Niemann is excited about his recording future with Curb, the
label is likewise enthusiastic. Jim Ed Norman, CEO of The Curb Group
says “We’re delighted and privileged that Jerrod is joining the Curb
Records Family. His longstanding association and friendship with others
at the label, both artists and executives alike, further enhances that
spirit of family, camaraderie and teamwork, which are the attributes of
any successful company and the characteristics to which we aspire each
and every day.” Already well at work on new music, a single release from
Niemann’s debut project for Curb Records will be issued this spring.
