Drive, paired with raw talent and business savvy took award winning #1 songwriter and breakout country artist, John King, out of a little mountain town in Georgia and into the spotlight. After arming himself with a music degree from the University of Georgia, King moved to Nashville and experienced his first #1 with a song he co-wrote called “We Went” recorded by artist Randy Houser. He received a 2016 ASCAP Songwriter Award for the song's success. King also
wrote the first Hootie and the Blowfish song to be released since 2005. "Rollin" is featured on their upcoming album.

King’s current single, “Try Saying Goodbye” pulls from his storytelling prowess. It has already garnered more than 15 million streams and 30 major market radio adds including Atlanta, Boston and Seattle. It was described by Tom Roland, of Billboard Magazine, as “a de facto ear worm that continues to connect.” CMT stated “With fresh melodies and lyrics mixed with old school believability, John King is a serious new artist you need to have on your playlists”. It was named one of Rolling Stone’s Top 10 Country Songs, earning features from , Amazon, Whiskey Riff, Taste of Country and more. It was also featured on Apple Music’s “Best of the Week”, “A-List”, “Breaking Country” and “Broken Down” Playlists. Spotify also is featured the song on their 6 million listener playlist "Hot Country" as well as “New Boots”, “Wild Country” and “New from Nashville” Playlists.
