WHAT IT IS: Hailing from Columbia, Tenn., rising country star Shane Profitt boasts a straight-shooting swagger, Southern charm and a barrel-chested voice. The 22-year-old emerging artist, who was mowing grass for the city less than a year ago, is now rocking sold-out crowds at the Ryman Auditorium and touring with his musical hero Chris Janson while writing distinctively modern country tunes. Earlier this year, Profitt debuted his boots-on-the-ground writing style with the three-track EP Maury Country Line, which features his breakout single, “How It Oughta Be.” He made his Grand Ole Opry debut on 11/1.
