Warner Music Nashville country- blues-rocker Frankie Ballard has sold over 615,000 album equivalents to date and accumulated more than 360 million total streams across all streaming platforms. Mixing an American heartland rock sound with traditional country and blues, his sophomore album Sunshine & Whiskey produced three consecutive No. 1 singles: the platinum-certified “Sunshine & Whiskey,” the gold-certified “Helluva Life,” and one of the Top 3 Billboard Country Airplay songs of 2015, “Young & Crazy.” He has performed multiple times on national television including appearances on TODAY, LIVE with Kelly and Jimmy Kimmel Live!. His most recent album, El Rio, was recorded at the famed Sonic Ranch, just south of El Paso in Tornillo, Texas. Ballard, band, and producer Marshall Altman left the comfort of Nashville in exchange for the opportunity to immerse themselves 24/7 creating this unique and fresh album. Rolling Stone described El Rio as being “…filled with country-rock anthems that have more in common with the heartland heroes of Ballard's youth — especially Bob Seger and John Mellencamp — than the outlaws and highwaymen whose names are so often cited by country music's younger class.” Ballard has toured with artists like Luke Bryan, Keith Urban, Bob Seger, Kenny Chesney and Lady Antebellum and has tour dates across the U.S. this summer and fall.
