Two weeks into college he knew his true calling was in music – and with his parents’ support and blessing – it was decided he should “change majors.”
He made the move to Nashville at the young age of 18, buoyed by the urging of his now-manager Pete Hartung. They met with up-and-coming producer/songwriter Jeremy Stover and soon Justin and Jeremy realized that they had both found the perfect fit. Once the twosome has written and produced the songs they thought they needed, they went to Scott Borchetta, President & CEO of the Big Machine Label Group, who would help turn Justin’s lifelong dream into a reality. Scott offered Justin a record deal, and in August of 2009, they released his debut album, JUSTIN MOORE, on The Valory Music Co. label. It was an exciting time for Justin as he spent all of 2009 and 2010 touring with the biggest names in country music, including Trace Adkins, Hank Williams Jr., Lynyrd Skynyrd, Brad Paisley, Brooks and Dunn, Miranda Lambert and Darius Rucker.
 Justin’s star has grown significantly since he was named Billboard’s “Top New Country Artist of 2009” and was recognized by The New York Times as having one of the best albums. He has sold over 2.2 million digital downloads to date and his sophomore album OUTLAWS LIKE ME hit the #1 spot the week it was released. OUTLAWS LIKE ME includes the fastest-rising single of Moore’s career, “If Heaven Wasn’t So Far Away,” which ascended to the #1 spot. His debut album scored three consecutive smash singles – #1 “Small Town USA” as well as the hits “Backwoods” and “How I Got To Be This Way.” He has been profiled by publications from The Washington Post, People Country and Billboard to USA Today. National TV appearances have included NPR, WGN Midday, FOX, Associated Press and Better TV while his music has been featured on Hannity & Colmes and NFL Rewind. Justin just received his first award at the Inspirational Country Music Awards for Mainstream Inspirational Song: IF HEAVEN WASN’T SO FAR AWAY. Having just wrapped up tours with both Rascal Flatts and Miranda Lambert, he will hit the road with Darius Rucker later this fall. Justin has also been selected to open for Blake Shelton in 2012. |
