John Morgan

With a style that’s defined by melodic grit and a craftsman’s approach to songwriting, John Morgan brings a blue-collar toughness to Country that’s pulled straight from the only life he knows. Hailing from a tiny town called Sylva, deep in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina, John Morgan grew up immersed in Bluegrass tradition and even toured the festival circuit each summer in a family band, before diving into songwriting, inspired by six-string legends from Tony Rice to John Mayer. More than a year after selling everything he had to follow his dream, an only-in-Nashville story involving Uber drivers and impressive demos led to a writing session with Kurt Allison and Tully Kennedy—two incredible songwriters and longtime bandmates of Jason Aldean. That session led to the superstar cutting eight songs written by John, including his GRAMMY® nominated No. 1 smash hit with Carrie Underwood, “If I Didn’t Love You” and a second No. 1, “Trouble With a Heartbreak.” Aldean ended up signing John to Night Train Records, his imprint with BBR Music Group, and tapped him to open his Rock n’ Roll Cowboy Tour in 2022.  John has followed up his songwriting success with releases of his own including “Coldest Beer in Town” and “Good With Goodbye.”
