Since first hitting the Country landscape, Jon Pardi has separated himself from the pack, carving a lane that was all his own by producing, writing and singing songs he created from the melodies up, and earning praise for it. The ACM and CMA award-winning artist is celebrated for his “state-of-the-art blend of traditional instrumentation and progressive grooves that point to Country’s future,” as noted in Rolling Stone. Pardi has an impressive ability to carve out his own path with his own take on the fiddle, twang and steel guitar. In this regard People Magazine said he is, “a leader among a growing number of artists bringing authenticity back into Country music.”

2023 saw a series of career milestones for the California-native, including a surprise moment at California’s famed Stagecoach Festival in April, where Country Icon Alan Jackson formally invited Pardi to join as a member of the Grand Ole Opry. His history-making induction on October 24th – presented by Opry member Garth Brooks – officially welcomed him as the first artist from California ever inducted. Additionally, the Multi-Platinum singer/songwriter/producer last year released his first-ever Christmas record, “Merry Christmas From Jon Pardi,” featuring 12 songs including original music, holiday classics, and unexpected covers.

Pardi recently celebrated his sixth career #1 on Country radio, “Your Heart Or Mine,” off of his ACM Album of the Year nominated project, “Mr. Saturday Night.” Featured by NPR, Paste, Billboard, and The Tennessean, Pardi’s album “Mr. Saturday Night” proved Pardi “might be the most successful at combining the old-school sound with today’s need for hooks,” wrote Nash News, earning praise for his ability to “blaze his own trail over the past decade” from Billboard. The album earned Pardi back-to-back Album of the Year nominations and reunited the producing team of Bart Butler, Ryan Gore and Pardi, the same team behind the boards of his critically acclaimed CMA and ACM Album of the Year nominated project, “Heartache Medication” which debuted among the top albums on Billboard’s Country Albums chart and was named in 2019 Rolling Stone’s Best Album of the Year. The album followed his breakthrough Platinum-selling album, “California Sunrise,” which featured the multi-platinum, chart-topping hits “Dirt On My Boots,” “Head Over Boots,” “Heartache On The Dance Floor,” and “Night Shift.” He knocked our boots  right off during his sold out 2022 debut at Hayden Homes Amphitheater with special guests Lainey Wilson and Hailey Whitters, and we know it’s going to be a good old fashioned hoedown when he returns this summer on the Honkytonk Hollywood Tour!
