Rising artist Jackson Wendell has signed with Sony Music Nashville.

“Signing with Sony is an incredible honor and a dream come true,” he shares. “I’m thankful to everyone who has believed in me, worked alongside me, and supported this journey but it is also just the beginning. I can’t wait to share what’s next in this partnership with Sony Music Nashville.”

Today, July 24, Wendell dropped a new track, “East Texas Beauty Queen,” which he co-wrote alongside Travis Denning and Brett Tyler.

“‘East Texas Beauty Queen’ was written about a girl I once knew who couldn’t help but keep me on my toes,” Wendell shares. “She’s wild, unpredictable, and hard to forget. She knows her worth, and she’ll make you work for it. I wanted the song to portray the difficulty of that chase while also giving it that hometown feel. It’s one of those stories that just felt honest to write and felt like me.”

Currently on the road with Parker McCollum and set to open for Lee Brice, Josh Turner and Mark Chesnutt later this summer, Jackson stands as an artist to watch.
