WMN INKS JAMEY JOHNSON
10/2/24

Ten-time Grammy nominee Jamey Johnson has inked with Warner Music Nashville through his record label, Big Gassed Records.

The signing comes ahead of the 10/4 arrival of his new single, “Someday When I’m Old,” which follows recent tracks like “21 Guns,” “What a View” and “Trudy” and “Sober.”

“For 14 years, those of us in the industry, and fans outside of it, have been begging Jamey Johnson to release another solo studio album,” said WMN co-chair/co-president, Cris Lacy. “Warner Music Nashville has the great honor of reintroducing this incomparable artist to a worldwide audience...on his terms...proof that great things are worth waiting for!”

“The reason I signed with Warner Music Nashville is Cris Lacy,” addedJohnson. “She is one of my longest-term friends I’ve had in the music business. We started our careers around the same time. She has been a friend to me and has only ever tried to help.”

Having penned songs recorded by the likes of George Strait, Trace Adkins, Willie Nelson, James Otto, Joe Nicholsand more, the Grand Ole Opry member is also one of only two people in the history of country music—along with Kris Kristofferson—to win two Song of the Year awards in the same year, for “Give It Away” and “In Color” from the ACMsand the CMAs.
