UMG Nashville has inked rising Country star Louie TheSinger.
“Having witnessed Louie's magnetic charisma translate on stages across this country and watch the rabid fan base he is building, I know that Louie is going to widen the country music audience,” said UMG Nashville Chair/CEO, Cindy Mabe. “I am so inspired by Louie's energy, purpose, and intention to expand the sound of country music through his own personal story and his songs.”
The Mexican singer-songwriter grew up in the streets of Fort Worth, Tex. and previously spent time in prison, where he vowed to change course. Since his release, he’s been focused on family while creating and performing music his own way.
“It’s crazy to think that I was just in a prison cell three years ago and now I’m signed to one of the biggest record labels in the world. Big thank you to Cindy Mabe and my new fam at UMG Nashville,” said Louie. “It’s time Mexican Americans have a voice in this country world and I’m here for it.”
Louie is currently in the studio working on new music that’s expected to arrive in the new year.
