DUSTIN LYNCH COMES HOME TO 'TULLAHOMA', FOURTH

NASHVILLE,
TN. (November 6, 2019) —
BMG/Broken Bow Records hitmaker Dustin
Lynch, one of the standout main stage performers at C2C Festival
this year, is using his fourth album
to recount the Country saga of a true “Small Town Boy,” setting January 17th for the release of 'TULLAHOMA'. Named after the acclaimed star’s Tennessee
hometown, the ambitious self-portrait comes after eight years of sustained
success including six #1s, six Gold and Platinum certifications and membership
in the historic Grand Ole Opry – but it finds Lynch taking stock of himself
like never before. “It’s all about me and growing up in my
hometown,” he explains. “Every song on this album points to something that
happened to me or my close friends and family, and that’s really cool. I’m very
proud of where I’m from, and proud of this record because it will hopefully
make my hometown a little more famous than it already is.” Incorporating the three songs on Lynch’s RIDIN’ ROADS EP (listen here)- including his current single of the same name - and
most-recent #1 “Good Girl,” TULLAHOMA marks
a creative step forward for both the artist and his co-writer/co-producer, Zach
Crowell. The longtime friends spearheaded the project from start to finish –
the first time Lynch has used a single producer for a whole album – letting a
universal story about coming of age and discovering yourself unfold.
“I’ve done a lot more living than I’ve
done in the past, because this is the first time I’ve been able to tour and
also feel like I have a life outside of that,” says the hard-working artist,
who just finished another milestone year on Thomas Rhett’s Very Hot Summer Tour. “It’s figuring out what I enjoy about life
the most – outside of music. The kind of stuff my mom and dad, my family and my
friends back home did growing up. Outdoors stuff like hunting and fishing,
hanging out in the backyard around a bonfire, just connecting. I long to be
that kid again, and I think we all do. You get to a certain point in life and
start reflecting on why you’re where you’re at … and I’ve just figured out
that’s what makes me tick. That’s why I work hard.” In addition to the album, Lynch is also announcing
his next USA headlining run – fittingly dubbed the Stay Country Tour 2020.
Kicking off January 30th in Detroit, Michigan, the trek will crisscross the
country with opener Travis
Denning - a portion of
each ticket sale will benefit The Cowboys and
Angels Fund– which supports various philanthropic causes
including an intentional focus on children’s charities. The Cowboys and Angels
Fund was established by Lynch in 2018 at The Community Foundation of Middle
Tennessee to help to make a difference in the lives of those in need.

Plot: Singer gets
happily tangled up with a mysterious, Tarot card-reading woman who seems to
know the future!
Broken Bow Records'
Dustin Lynch premiered the sizzling
new music video for his Top
15-and-climbing hit "Mind Reader"
Friday (March 25th) across all media platforms.
Filmed from dusk to
dawn, director Mason Dixon
illuminates the R&B-tinged "Mind Reader" against the backdrop of
downtown Nashville.
Playing off the
storyline of the song, fortune-telling vignettes are cut with Lynch's sultry,
magnetic performance.
Tarot cards, fog
and a bohemian chic love interest add to the video's intricate layers of
mystery.
"This video was so much fun to create. Here's
to great date nights ... And, ladies it's awesome if you make the first move!"
says Lynch with a laugh.
"The video is
a night playing out between me and my [love] interest, my little mind reader.
We're cutting back-and-forth to our night together – with [this girl] turning
over tarot cards, and then at the end, it cuts to me coming up to the
house."
It turns out
"the whole time that she's turning these cards over, she was predicting
the night that was about to happen," he explained.
Girl it's like you got a crystal ball
Like you got a little gypsy side
It's like you knew that sweet perfume
That you got on was gonna get me high
Well how'd you know what I'm thinking right now?
How'd you know what I was about to say?
How'd you know to whisper in my ear
Let's take this party back to my place
Baby, you're a little mind, baby, you're a little mind reader
Yeah, that's what you are
You play it off a little shy but baby, you're a heart stealer
And right here in this car
It's like you knew that smile was gonna melt me down
Like you know those lips are what I'm needing right now
And girl when you lay 'em on mine
Yeah, it's like you're reading my mind
Yeah, that's what you are

Written by Rhett Akins and Ben Hayslip, "Mind Reader" is the third single released
from Lynch's latest album WHERE IT'S AT and follows two consecutive #1 smashes;
the GOLD-certified "Hell Of A Night" and PLATINUM-certified
"Where It's At."
"Mind
Reader" was released to radio on September 28, 2015 from WHERE IT'S AT which dropped September
9, 2014.
Dustin Lynch earned
his best sales week when it made a bow at No.8 on the Billboard 200 and No.2 on
Billboard Top Country Albums with his sophomore set,
WHERE IT’S AT
(Broken Bow/Broken Bow Music Group), entered with 30,866 sales back on the chart week of
September 27, 2014. Digital sales made up 58%
of the sum. His self-titled debut album began at No.13 on the Billboard 200 and

Lynch hopes that
being inclusive of all genres, rather than strictly purist, will help ensure
country keeps plunging forward in popularity. "We're in a spot in country
much where we can go out and grab new fans," he told Rolling Stone Country. "With Taylor Swift and Florida Georgia Line introducing people to country
music — maybe those people will come to a country festival and have the time of
their life. We can grab people that are on the fence, dipping a toe into the
water. We can bring them all the way in."

Living in LA by way
of Oregon, this natural beauty is tackling the modeling industry with grace and
class.
Staying true to her
roots, she chooses to be honest and silly over serious and sassy. Keep an eye out for her both in the digital
and print spaces.
Much more than a
beautiful face, this girl has a kind heart and a true sense of herself.
I was born and raised
in a suburb outside of Portland Oregon. I currently live in West Hollywood, CA…
But I bounced around for about a year between living in Hawaii, Miami, Vegas,
LA and Portland before I finally settled in LA full time.
Skin Care: I swear by Mario Badescu
Facial spray with Aloe, Herb, and Rosewater….
Who is her style icons?:
I don’t really care about style…. I care more about the overall attitude and
image people create for themselves, that being said, Kacey Musgraves is a badass and I wish I could be her.
