Chart-topping recording artist RaeLynn has signed with The Valory Music Co., marking a full-circle return to where the PLATINUM-selling hitmaker kickstarted her career as a Country mainstay. Her first release, “Heaven Is A Honky Tonk,” is due out Friday, May 9 via The Valory Music Co. in partnership with Red Van Records/Jonas Group Entertainment. |

The reunion was initiated by an organic, viral moment on RaeLynn’s beloved catalog of hit songs including “Boyfriend” and “God Made Girls.” As the positive relationship between Big Machine Label Group and the singer/songwriter maintained over the past decade, the conversation around new music rekindled quickly. “I’ve been intrigued by RaeLynn since the very first time I saw her on The Voice,” says BMLG Chairman & CEO Scott Borchetta. “It’s now come full circle as her energy is infectious, her determination unwavering, and she’s brought us the absolute best music of her career. Welcome home, Rae!” “I couldn’t be more excited to be coming back home to Big Machine Label Group,” adds RaeLynn. “Having both Scott Borchetta and Kevin Jonas Sr. covering all corners of my career is a dream come true! Kicking things off with ‘Heaven Is A Honky Tonk’ makes it even sweeter; it’s bold, it’s country, and it’s 100% me. I am more inspired and grateful than ever because of this new music and team!” An unapologetic Country rocker that flips tradition on its head, “Heaven Is A Honky Tonk” is a boot-stomping blend of Southern grit and divine rebellion. Written by RaeLynn, Lauren Hungate and Caroline Watkins, the high-energy anthem paints paradise not with halos and harps, but with neon lights, pedal steel guitars and sawdust-covered dance floors. RaeLynn teamed up with Aaron Gillespie to co-produce “Heaven Is A Honky Tonk” – her first time behind the boards, and her first release with the producer known for his illustrious career as the drummer of hard-hitting Metal band Underoath. |
