Industry News: Craig Campbell Inks New Deal with Red Bow Records
9 years ago Liv Carter 2
Craig Campbell has signed a new recording deal with Red Bow Records, part of BBR Music Group.
As one of the few neo-traditionalists who is able to find support at radio, Campbell is in the perfect position to expand his fan base as country music starts to move in a new direction yet again. The era of “dudebros” and “chill girls” seem to be wrapping up, and many fans are hungry for music which is closer to the country sound they first loved.
At Red Bow, and under the guidance of Benny Brown, Campbell could not have landed at a better label. It is an independent label which thinks like a major, and seems to have cracked to code for achieving radio success. It has been great to see Craig’s career develop and I’m excited to see what might come next. It’s not like I love every song he’s ever recorded, but he is one of the artists for whom I fostered a great respect – for the way he built his career, for the way he treats his fans, for the way be conducted himself when things weren’t going so well. I absolutely want to see him take his career to the next level!
In a recent chat with Billboard, he revealed he liked the label for some time, that the deal came about partly due to Kiefer Thompson of Thompson Square, and talked about his Garth Brooks cut ‘All American Kid.’
