Jamey Johnson is sharing some advice he got from Willie Nelson—and it’s all about staying authentic.
Nelson told him not to worry about record label “suits,” pointing out they come and go, while artists are the ones who stick around.
Johnson says watching labels constantly change hands only proves that point.
He also announced his Traveling Troubadour Tour, kicking off next month.

Luke Bryan says he doesn’t want to be labeled as just country music’s “party guy.”
While he enjoys those songs, he points out his catalog also dives into small-town life, heartbreak, and real-life ups and downs.
Bryan says that range is what makes country special—telling the full story, from bar anthems to meaningful, personal moments.
The American Music Awards have announced their nominees, with Taylor Swift leading overall with eight. Morgan Wallen tops all country artists with seven nominations, including Artist, Song, and Album of the Year for I’m the Problem.
Ella Langley leads female country nominees with five, including New Artist and Song of the Year. Names like Luke Combs, Lainey Wilson, and Zac Brown Band also highlight this year’s country categories.
The fan-voted awards air Monday, May 25th on CBS and Paramount+, hosted by Queen Latifah. Voting is open now.
