JD Outlaw is exactly that, an Outlaw in the music industry, not just country music. He
was raised on traditional country music in the Heart of Dixie yet had an overwhelming
love for grunge and post grunge rock. His new album, releasing early 2017,
goes in depth about the struggles of being too rock for country and too country for rock.
It tells stories and also gives light to both sides of his musical
influences and sounds. He has played shows in hundreds of cities in over 40 states ranging
from Boston, Santa Cruz, Austin, Nashville, Sturgis, Chicago, Daytona and everywhere
in the southeast near his home state of Alabama. JD has had the opportunity and
privilege to share the stage with acts such as: Fuel, Jason Michael Carroll, Shooter Jennings,
The Waymore's Outlaws, Derek St. Holmes and the Monster
Allstars, Wayne Mills, Analog Heart, Fall to June, Trailer Choir, Black Oak Arkansas,
Tobacco Road/Eric Durrance, Daryle Singletary, to just brush the
surface. The single “American in Me” received national airplay in various markets and
debuted in New York City’s largest country market for 9/11. He also recorded with
Jamey Johnson’s previous guitarist, Jason Rowdy Cope, at legendary Sun Studios, for a
tribute album for a fallen hero titled Modern Day Hank. JD Outlaw has spent time in
LA in studio with his Producer, Andy Andersson of Fuel, kickstarting the recording of the new album. JD finished recording in Nashville with an allstar lineup of musicians on the album. (Andy Andersson and Shannon Boone of Fuel, Cowboy of
Jamey Johnson, Nick Gibson, J Kott of Keith Anderson, and Peter Keys of Lynyrd Skynyrd)
“I love what I do, it’s who I am, and you will leave my show truly believing in
who I am and the music I sing.” JD Outlaw.
