ABOUT LARRY FLEET Blue-collar, Tennessee native Larry Fleet grew up with a love of music sparked by an eclectic mix of influences spanning Merle Haggard to Marvin Gaye. To make ends meet, he spent tireless hours working construction jobs – never losing sight of his dream to make music. A chance encounter with Jake Owen in 2017 led to a collaborative friendship and an opening slot on the road. Shortly thereafter, Fleet was sharing the stage with one of his heroes - Willie Nelson - and etching his mark in the Nashville songwriting community, co-writing with esteemed tunesmiths Rhett Akins, Brett James, and Kendell Marvel. The hard-working family man is turning heads now with full-length album, Stack of Records (Big Loud Records), produced by Joey Moi, the follow up to his aptly titled first project, Workin' Hard. Breakout hit “Where I Find God” – a powerful ode to finding peace in a higher power's presence – is featured on the new set, garnering Fleet praise for his “emotive vocals” (Billboard) and amassing over 26 million official music video views. Fleet just wrapped a run supporting Morgan Wallen's Dangerous Tour and launched his first-ever headlining One For The Road Tour last week.   CONNECT WITH LARRY FLEET WEBSITE | FACEBOOK | TWITTER | INSTAGRAM | YOUTUBE   ABOUT SHELBY DARRALL A Calistoga, California native, Darrall grew up with a love of music sparked by her father, Chuck, and his band SilverCreek.
