Ryan Hurd’s Nashville Favorites
We caught up with newcomer Ryan Hurd to chat about some of his favorite places in and around Music City.
Ryan Hurd has been making a name for himself as a songwriter for quite some time. The Michigan native has had a number of songs cut by some of country music’s biggest names, including Tim McGraw, Jake Owen, Florida Georgia Line, Rascal Flatts, Randy Houser, Darius Rucker, The Cadillac Three, Brothers Osborne. He also earned a GRAMMY-nomination for the song “Lonely Tonight,” recorded by Blake Shelton and Ashley Monroe.
Now, Hurd is venturing out on his own as an artist as part of Sony Music Nashville’s RCA Nashville imprint. While fans will have to wait to get their hands on the singer/songwriter’s full-length debut, they can get a taste of his music with recently released tracks like “We Do Us,” “Love In A Bar,” “Hold You Back,” and “City Girl.”
