Buddy Jewell

America chose Arkansas native Buddy Jewell as the very first winner of the USA Network's hit reality show "Nashville Star". Buddy was the true viewer favorite from the very beginning, capturing 65% of the nationwide voting and beating out 11 other contestants, most notably, Miranda Lambert, by over 2 million votes on the final episode. He and America have been involved in a love affair ever since.
His self-titled Columbia Records release debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top Country Album charts, was certified GOLD later that same year and garnered two back-to-back top five hits with "Sweet Southern Comfort" and "Help Pour Out the Rain (Lacey's Song)". Both tunes are RIAA certified 1 million radio air plays. Buddy has also charted three #1’s with his European Country Top 40 smash “Jesus, Elvis and Me” (2012), as well as Power Source Top 100 Christian Country hits “Somebody Who Would Die for You” (2009) and “I’m There” (2017)
Buddy has been recognized by the Grammy's, ACM’s, CMA’s and CMT with multiple award nominations. In 2011, he won the International Country Gospel Music Association's “Entertainer of the Year” and “Crossover Artist of the Year” awards. In 2015, he was recognized by his home state as an inductee to the Arkansas Entertainer’s Hall of Fame.
Buddy Jewell gives back to his community and beyond on many levels, serving as past spokesperson for The Minnie Pearl Cancer Foundation, The World Orphans Day Foundation and Compassion International. He especially has a heart for children and actively supports several worthy causes including St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
Buddy is a proud American patriot and chooses to serve our nation as well. Throughout his career, he has entertained our troops on bases all across America and abroad. In December 2010, Buddy traveled with Sergeant Major of the Army, Kenneth O. Preston, on an extensive USO tour to remote forward operating bases in Iraq, Kuwait and Afghanistan, visiting with and performing for our armed forces on the front lines. Above all of his accomplishments, Buddy is most proud to be a loving father, devoted husband, fervent patriot and an outspoken Christ follower.
