Russell Dickerson

When he released his first album in 2017, Yours, Russell Dickerson emerged as a keystone between the Hip-Hop-infused, party-centric Bro-Country wave that dominated the early 2010s and the sweet Boyfriend Country sound that followed.

In reality, Russell Dickerson fits into neither category, with his distinctive, high-energy aesthetic drawing inspiration from a multiplicity of genres, with the Tennessee native repeatedly stressing his aversion to being sonically boxed in.

Dickerson has frequently collaborated with his fellow contemporary country hitmakers and songwriting buddies, Thomas Rhett and Tyler Hubbard, with the trio releasing the beautifully intricate and thought-provoking musing on a missionary trip to a men’s prison in Nashville, ‘Death Row’, in 2022.

Across the four full-length projects Dickerson has dropped since his debut, he has amassed five No. 1 singles, including the multi-Platinum ‘Yours’ and ‘Blue Tacoma’, and the Platinum ‘Every Little Thing’ and ‘Love You Like I Used To’.

In November 2023, Russell Dickerson picked up his fifth chart-topper at Country Radio, the charming, rose-tinted ode to his wife, ‘God Gave Me A Girl’, taken from the singer-songwriter’s celebrated 2022 self-titled record.

His most recent No. 1 success was accompanied by the release of The Afterparty (Deluxe) EP, which epitomised Dickerson’s ability to continually strike a balance between settled-down father-of-two and beer-chugging rockstar.
