Arts Insider Recommendation of the Week
by Gioia Patton/Arts Insider
WHEN: Thursday, January 30 @ 7pm
WHERE: PBR Cowboy Bar @ 4th St. LIVE!
TICKETS: *Ages 21+ www.4thtlive.com
Chartbreaker and award winner Dillon Carmichael is a rising country music artist from Burgin, KY., and will be performing a solo acoustic concert this Thursday at 4th St. Live’s PBR Cowboy bar. Adding to his already emerging career, Carmichael’s new Jon Pardi-produced single, “Drinkin’ Problems,” is climbing the radio charts, and was the most added song for five consecutive weeks. It serves as an introduction into his deeply personal four-track project, “Where I Grew Up” that highlights his bluegrass roots, produced by Riser House Entertainment. Rolling Stone dubbed Carmichael as “country music’s most convincing young star since Stapleton.”
The New York Times compared Carmichael to Randy Travis in his previous album, “Hell On An Angel,” and said his rich baritone voice “moves with the heft and certainty of a tractor-trailer,” while NPR praised his “deep holler,” and Parade raved that “Carmichael defines pure country.”
Speaking of ‘pure country,’ the 31-year-old Carmichael also happens to be the nephew of not one, but two country music stars- singer John Michael Montgomery, and his brother, *singer Eddie Montgomery (*one half of Montgomery Gentry duo fame).
In December 2023, the Country Radio Seminar named Carmichael as one of their ‘New Faces’ for 2024. He landed on Artist To Watch lists from Billboard, Rolling Stone, Taste of Country, Pandora, and more, reached #2 at Country radio’s Most Added chart with his debut radio single, “Dancing Away With My Heart.”
