After building a solid foundation as a touring artist and songwriter -- penning tracks alongside award-winners like Tim Nichols ("Live Like You Were Dying"), Monty Criswell ("I Saw God Today") and JT Harding ("Alone With You") -- 2016 CMT "Listen Up Artist" Drew Baldridge drops his debut EP 'Dance With Ya' today (1.8) via iTunes. Incorporating a wide range of influences, Baldridge showcases his "rich baritone vocals and traditional-country-meets-straight-up-pop sound" (Country Weekly) across the five-tracks.
Kicking off 2016 as the #1 Most Added New Artist on Country radio, Baldridge and his debut single "Dance With Ya" are already proving to be fan-favorites. The EP title track has risen to the Top 10 on SiriusXM's "Hot 45 Countdown," and its dynamic video -- thanks to fan's votes -- climbed to #2 on CMT Pure's "12 Pack Countdown."
Baldridge will continue the momentum through the Spring with tour dates supporting artists Lee Brice, Tyler Farr, Granger Smith and Parmalee.
