About Jon Langston

The epitome of a grass-roots country star, 32 Bridge Entertainment/EMI Records Nashville talent Jon Langston gives new credence to the 10-year, 10,000-hour rule of mastering one’s craft. Arriving with a Gold-certified splash via lost-in-love ballad “Forever Girl” in 2013, Langston has spent the ensuing decade on a mission to grow as both an artist and a man. A Georgia native schooled on ‘90s-country, classic rock, Southern rap and more, his efforts have produced three EPs, half a billion global streams, a Grand Ole Opry debut, sold-out headline shows and a recurring spot on mentor Luke Bryan’s annual tour. With a warm vocal buzz drenched in raspy Southern soul and a modern-country sound, Langston’s long-awaited debut album, Heart On Ice (out September 8) marks his next step from open mics to country’s elite. Featuring 14 songs – 11 of which he co-wrote – the concept album infuses his country-radio roots with a fresh electricity, adding a bold sense of maturity to his catalog of party anthems and ballads built on a wounded-but-still-beating heart. Early releases “Whiskey Does” and “Ain’t No Cowboy” proved his knack for a romantic hook has only sharpened, while “Heart On Ice” showcases the intention Langston brings to his music, hinting at deep-feeling hits yet to come. Now savoring life like a glass of top-shelf bourbon – and making music with the same barrel-aged patience – Langston is featured on Luke Bryan’s Country On Tour, and headlining shows across the nation.
