2025 Fresh & Raw Tour Artist Spotlights:
DAN ALLEY
From small-town Miamisburg, Ohio to the heart of Nashville, Dan Alley has carved a reputation as one of country music’s sharpest young storytellers. Picking up a guitar at nine years old and gigging nightly by the age of eighteen, Alley made the bold move to Music City to chase his songwriting dreams. His artistry blends the grit of Hank Jr. and Merle Haggard with a timeless, modern edge.
Alley’s pen has already made a big mark on the industry. Alley co-wrote 2 top 40 country hits including the #1 country song in the nation right now, Luke Bryans "A Country Song Came On" and the current country hit by Hudson Westbrook, "House Again". Other notable songs written by Alley include Lainey Wilsons “Straight Up Sideways.”, Jon Pardis “Funny Seeing You Here” and Mike Ryans "Die Runnin".
Alley continues to deliver the kind of authentic country songs that keep dancehalls alive and radio airwaves buzzing.
SAM BANKS
Winning fans with his honesty, grit, and road-worn storytelling. Raised outside of Kansas City, Banks built his sound on the legends—Merle Haggard and Dean Dillon—while cutting his teeth in bars and honky-tonks across the country. His career took off after working closely with Craig Morgan, even sharing the stage at the Grand Ole Opry in a pinch-me career moment.
As a performer, Banks has opened for some of country’s biggest names—Trace Adkins, Thomas Rhett, Zac Brown, Jelly Roll, Gary LeVox, and members of Hank Jr.’s family—proving his songs connect across audiences.
As a writer, he’s already landed some major cuts from “Bartender in Destin” performed by Riley Green, “Going Out Like This” and "Ask Him" by Craig Morgan, & Jake Bush's #1 Texas hit, "Tractor Town."
