He knows people want to kick back\, forget about their troubles\, and have a good time\, so he’s always willing to oblige. For over two decades\, the multi-platinum artis t born Matthew Shafer has consistently soundtracked such good times with h is boldly breezy blend of country\, pop\, and rock spiked with a splash of hip-hop. The world initially met Uncle Kracker during his stint in Kid Ro ck’s Twisted Brown Trucker Band\, lending his songwriting and musical ac umen to seven cuts off the RIAA diamond-certified Devil Without A Cause. H owever\, fans fell in love with him on his solo debut Double Wide in 2000. It not only crashed the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 at #7\, but it also p icked up a double-platinum certification and paved the way for the gold-ce rtified follow-up No Stranger To Shame [2002].\n\nHe has impressively notc hed #1 entries in three different genre lanes\, topping Pop\, Adult Contem porary\, and Country charts. The platinum “Follow Me” clinched #1 in f our countries\, while the double-platinum “When The Sun Goes Down” [wi th Kenny Chesney] vaulted to #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles &\ ; Tracks Chart. He made history with his cover of Dobie Gray’s “Drift Away.” It logged 28 consecutive weeks at #1 on Adult Contemporary Radio\ , earning “the most weeks atop any Billboard chart.” Meanwhile\, “Sm ile” shined across culture. It reached triple-platinum status and landed dozens of syncs\, including a spot for The Office and a tribute montage t o Regis Philbin on his final episode of Live With Regis &\; Kelly. Foll owing 2012’s country album Midnight Special\, he served up singles such as “Endlessly\,” “Floatin’\,” and “No Time To Be Sober.” Now in 2023\, he’s released “Sweet 16” — his first proper single sinc e the notorious pandemic — followed by “Reason To Drink” and most re cently\, “Cruising Altitude."\n\nBLANCO BROWN\nBlurring the lines betwee n Country and Hip-Hop music\, Blanco Brown makes a southern sound that he proudly calls "TrailerTrap." Honing in on his unique sound\, Blanco balanc es both the urban and rural settings in which he grew up. His viral hit “The Git Up” (certified 11x PLATINUM across three countries) took the world by storm\, claiming the top spot in charts across the globe and spaw ning nearly four billion views across social platforms. It claimed the No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for 12 weeks and was the top- selling digital Country song in the US for 13 weeks\, resulting in Billboa rd naming him as their No. 1 Top New Country Artist for 2019. Apart from b eing a Grammy-nominated engineer who has worked with the likes of Fergie\, Childish Gambino\, Kane Brown and Chris Brown\, the multi-talent’s mult i-national Platinum-certified collaboration “Just the Way” with Parmal ee garnered more than 500 million on-demand streams\, earning Brown his fi rst No. 1 hit on Country radio (in the US and Canada). More recently\, he doubled down on his genre- bending collaborations\, teaming with Nelly on the funky\, country inspired track “High Horse\,” T.I. for “Trap Sti ll Bumpin’\,” LOCASH and the late Leslie Jordan for the funky “Let I t Slide\,” while pairing with Diplo for “Do Si Do” and Lee Brice and R3HAB for the remix of Brice’s hit song\, “Soul.” In 2021\, Blanco Brown also lent soaring vocals to the song “Never Gonna Tame You (Origin al Song from “The Mustangs: America’s Wild Horses”)\,” written by Diane Warren. Recovering from a life-threatening accident and leaning on m usic to heal\, Blanco released “Nobody’s More Country” in 2021. Then \, while hitting the road hard this summer\, he instantly captured the att ention of festival audiences across the nation opening his set with a brea thtakingly powerful cover blend of Sam Cooke’s “A Change Is Gonna Come ” and Chris Stapleton’s “Tennessee Whiskey.” Showcasing his world- class vocal talent and captivating stage presence throughout 2022\, Blanco ’s latest emotionally charged new track “I’ll Never\,” available n ow\, is unlike anything the No. 1 hitmaker has ever released.
