Not only does Shane have a great voice but he and his band put on a good show. They also kept the audience interested in what Shane had to talk about in between the songs. One thing I liked about the show was when each band member was allowed to show off their skills with their instruments and to sing also. Shane was even able to get his parents on stage so the audience and himself could give them a round of applause for the home they raised Shane in and all the support they had given him. Great job Shane. Keep up the good work. Your gonna go far in my opinion.

The weather got chilly after sundown for this time of year but Shane still put on a great show with a more intimate vip feel to it since it wasn’t as packed as usual in downtown !

About Shane Profitt

Life can change fast – just ask Shane Profitt, an emerging Country star from the small town of Columbia,
Tennessee.

At the end of 2021, he was still pulling overtime at his job with the city, busting his back about an hour south of
Nashville and living for the weekend ... with a few decades left to go. But now the 22-year-old is rocking sold-
out crowds at the historic Ryman Auditorium, touring with his chart-topping hero and writing modern Country
tunes so genuine, they slip on like a pair of broken-in work boots. Because no one has to tell this
singer/songwriter what a blue-collar life is all about.

“Back in November I was still working for the city of Columbia, getting up at 6 o’clock every morning and working
8 hours a day – and I hated every minute of it,” he says with a laugh, noting how far he’s come in such a short
time. “When people hear the name Shane Profitt, I want them to automatically know I’m no different than them,
because I actually lived that 40-hour-week life. And it wasn’t that long ago.”
Now signed to BMLG Records/Harpeth 60 Records, Profitt is back on the clock and hard at work once more –
because it’s all he really knows. But these days, the job description is different.

A salt of the earth Southerner with a big, barrel-chested voice, a straight-shooting swagger and a kind smile,
Profitt’s musical toolbox is full of all-natural talent, but he admits to only recently learning the craft. The journey
starts about two years ago, when his grandad asked what he wanted for Christmas.

As it turns out, Profitt’s family has its roots in Eastern Kentucky, and get-togethers would often turn into picking
parties – since almost everyone played music (except him). His grandad loved traditional bluegrass, while
Profitt’s parents were fans of Keith Whitley, Hank Williams Jr. and Merle Haggard, and each would play what
they loved. Profitt just wanted to do the same.

“I told him I didn’t really want anything – except to learn how to play Hank Jr. songs on guitar,” the kind-hearted
youngster recalls. “So he taught me G, C and D, and I just stuck with it. It all started with those three chords.”
Soon Profitt had surpassed his original goal, and within six months was playing his first paying gig in Columbia.
Gifted with a heavy-duty vocal, he became a regular draw at the popular Southern-cooking chain, Puckett’s,
traveling all over Tennessee to weekend shows while still holding down his job back home. And while that made
for some long hours, it also led to inspiration for original music.

Calling himself a sucker for “Keith Whitley-style heartbreaker,” his first self-penned song was the start of a new
life, because within a few months Profitt had begun a new kind of shift work. Working all day and then fighting
brutal rush-hour traffic, he’d drive to Nashville each night, just hoping to find someone to write with. Oftentimes
he’d get home just five hours before his alarm went off the next morning, get up and do it all over again. But it
was worth it.

One day he was having dinner when his modern-Country hero walked in the restaurant. And after summoning
the courage to say hello, he and Chris Janson became fast friends.

Impressed by Profitt’s boots-on-the-ground writing style – and his good Southern manners – Janson began
mentoring the aspiring star. He would even send Profitt song ideas, and some days the newcomer would park
his mower under a shade tree and work out lyrics over lunch – which eventually led to “The Reel Bass Pro”
becoming Profitt’s first cut, appearing on Janson’s All In album.

It wasn’t long before Janson was inviting his protege to open shows, but months went by before Profitt finally put
in his two-week notice, quitting his day job and signing a 2021 publishing deal to Janson’s Old Tom
Publishing/Anthem Entertainment. And after spending the spring of 2022 rocking crowds on the Halfway to Crazy
Tour, “Country Boys” completes his transformation.

Built on the foot-tapping foundation of his granddad’s bluegrass roots, it’s a fast talking Friday-night tribute to the
only life Profitt knows, and after landing the singer-songwriter a record deal, his new career is underway.
“It’s such a genuine song to us who actually live it,” Profitt says. “It speaks to people just like me.”

The same is true about the rest of Profitt’s recording debut, which was executive produced by Janson with Big
Machine Label Group Chairman and CEO Scott Borchetta and features GRAMMY® Awards winner Julian
Raymond as producer. With tracks like the hook filled honky tonker "Better Off Fishin'," the hopeful heaven-on-
earth anthem "How It Oughta Be" and chest-thumping charmer "Guys Like Me," Profitt puts his life to music --
along with the lives of so many others. And this is just the beginning.

“I’m a writer on every single song, and I’m not gonna write about something I have no idea about,” Profitt says.
“So I’m dang sure not gonna sing about something I don’t know, either.”
“I just wanna be known as the guy that’s been there, and is as genuine as they come,” he goes on. “And that’s
not ever gonna change.”
