2026 Music Artists

Tennessee-born troubadour Larry Fleet grew up on a stack of records that spun everything from Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson to Otis Redding and Marvin Gaye. That mix shaped a sound rooted in country storytelling but unafraid to reach beyond its borders. A thoughtful songwriter with a knack for sharp one-liners, sturdy hooks, and a powerhouse voice that cuts straight to the truth, Fleet was working blue-collar jobs long before ever landing a record deal. 

A devout family man and respected songwriter (including co-writing “Man Made A Bar,” recorded by Morgan Wallen featuring Eric Church), Fleet has built an impressive catalog: 2019’s aptly titled Workin’ Hard, 2021’s Stack of Records—a nod to the music that raised him—2023’s Earned It with the standout “Things I Take for Granted,” and now 2025’s independently released Hard Work & Holy Water. Fleet is doing things his own way—touring globally, connecting with fans, and staying true to where he’s from while taking country music somewhere new.
