Mississippi Native, Fordie Hays is an up and coming Country Artist with a big personality and a unique sound equally as large. Fordie says when he was born in April, 1988 music was already running through his veins; he comes from a long line of singers, song writers and guitar pickers. Fordie’s first time attending a concert was at the age of five when he won tickets to a Travis Tritt concert from the small town grocery store where he lived in Mendenhall, MS. That concert awoken his dream of one day sharing his music with fans of his own; from that night on he knew music was his destiny. Fordie has worked hard at dreaming his musical talents into a successful singer-songwriting career. He has the privilege of working alongside some of the best songwriters, producers, musicians and management in the country music industry; the people who make legends out of ordinary people.

Fordie’s first break came when he met songwriter Tommy Barnes. Tommy Barnes is an award winning song writer. His credits include three chart toppers for Tim McGraw. Tommy wrote Fordie's first single “Life in the Slow Lane” which climbed the charts on IHEART Radio giving Fordie recognition for his musical talents.

Having moved to Nashville at the age of 18 Fordie took odd jobs with flexible schedules in order to make time to work on his passion for music. In 2007, when his family began to grow he moved back to Mississippi to share in the joys of raising two sons. Fordie already knows his sons are going to follow him into music because he recognizes the signs of music coursing through their veins. Now Fordie splits his time between his home in Magee, MS and his Nashville, TN location.

Growing up Fordie loved singing at the local VFW and any other place where kids were welcome to step up to the microphone. His fan base began developing before he entered Jr. High School and continues to grow every day. Fordie’s grandfather came from a family with 10 brothers and most weekends you’d find them all gathered together playing their guitars, writing songs and singing; music is truly the heartbeat of his family. Those family concerts gave Fordie the confidence he needed to perform on stage. Fordie’s career is dedicated to the memories of those brothers who each should have been legends but never caught the right break. One of those brothers, Billy Langham, often performed on local stages around the state and had the opportunity to go further if he had not been killed in the line of duty as a Mississippi State Trooper in 1981. Fordie is ready to carry on his Great-Uncle’s dream as well as his own. There can be no better family tradition or honor for him than to share his brand of passion for music. He's chasing the musical dream of his family before him and hopes to pave the way for family who follow in his footsteps once his name is a household word.

UNRELEASED & ROUGH MUSIC ✅

Jessta James may not be from the South, but the Montana native surely knows what country is. “Out here it’s about the cowboy way, ranching and rodeos,” country’s innovative new up and comer says.

With the release of his album, Time To Get Right, the rest of America will soon know how Jessta’s unique blend of country and rock honors his country roots while advancing the genre to places just recently discovered.

“I’ve loved music for as long as I can remember,” Jessta, whose name is a play on the word “jester” aka an entertainer, admits. “Some of my earliest influences were from my parents. My dad listened to a lot of outlaw country—Willie, Waylon, Hank Jr. and Johnny Cash— when I was growing up, as well as classic country, rock and Southern rock.”

A late bloomer artistically, Jessta didn’t write his first song until he was 24 years old, but the bug quickly bit him and he was hooked. “I wrote probably 150 songs over a year and a half,” the former construction worker says. “If I had an idea while I was at work, I’d write it on a two by four or a piece of cardboard I’d ripped from a box of nails.”

While still working his day job, Jessta began performing around Montana, doing both his own shows and opening for national acts, all the while building a devoted following.

With the support of his then-girlfriend and now wife, Chandra, Jessta headed to the West Coast hoping to hone and find a home for his music. While he connected with both fans and the industry, Jessta didn’t believe his vision was being fulfilled.

There were other forces at work as well.

After a brief foray into the California music scene Jessta found his country connection in Atlanta-based songwriter and producer Dan Hannon. The two men immediately hit it off and the collaboration began. Together they wrote the song “If That Ain’t Country” and demoed it. “As soon as I heard it I said, ‘That’s the sound I’ve been looking for,’” Jessta recalls. “I found that sweet spot and it just clicked.”

Even though Jessta is country through and through, it wasn’t until he discovered artists such as Eric Church, Big & Rich and Brantley Gilbert, among others, that he realized his unique blend of country rock infused with hip hop, wild west and classic rock could find mainstream success. After all, today’s iPod generation of country fans are just as comfortable listening to Jason Aldean as Ludacris and Lynyrd Skynyrd. “They’ve paved the way for my music,” says Jessta. The realization further validated the work he was doing with Dan.

The pair continued writing songs and then took what they had to Nashville to record with Music City’s top musicians, including some that had played with Jessta’s heroes Hank Williams Jr. and Garth Brooks, among others.

The result is a collection of music that embodies Jessta’s genre-bending blend of country and rock with his Wild West upbringing.

The best country music comes from the heart and Jessta’s music is no different. The album’s title cut, “Time To Get Right,” was born out of the loss of his older brother, Matt, to a prescription drug addiction in 2006. “We were best friends,” says Jessta. “We were only 20 months apart.”

Jessta hopes the song will help others deal with the issue of addiction. “This song gives me the opportunity to tell Matt all the things I didn’t get to tell him,” Jessta says. “It’s a really powerful song for me, but I’ve found that when people hear the song they relate to it. Everybody at some level has dealt with addiction, whether it’s a family member or a friend or an acquaintance.”

Front and center in Jessta’s life is his Christianity, which is evident on his album. There are many references to his spirituality—both overt and subtle. “I always want my music to make an impact and share a message,” Jessta says. “I’ve always just done what God has put in my heart as far as writing songs. What I’ve found is that it’s reaching people no matter what their faith is. It’s not coming across to people as preachy, it’s coming across as real.”

“My faith and my family are the most important things with me,” he adds.

Fittingly, “Better Man” is a song that Jessta wrote about his relationship with his father as well as the relationship he’ll have with his own children as they grow up. “It’s about the values I want to instill in them,” he says.

He calls songs such as “Better Man” and “Time To Get Right,” “a window into my soul, who I am as a person.”

“If That Ain’t Country Song,” explains just who Jessta is. “It tells my story. Everyone told me ‘you can’t do that’,” he says of his vision to blend genres, “but it actually pushed me more. I don’t have to do what everyone else says.”

“Rock ‘n’ Roll Angel’,” which features country up-and-comer Dana King, is a tribute to Jessta’s wife and her dedication to his career. “A lot of people don’t think about the people at home who make this happen,” he says.

With a groundbreaking new album in his back pocket, Jessta is ready to share his music with the masses in a big way. “The live show is where the rubber meets the road,” says Jessta. “It’s where I connect with my fans. I want them to say, ‘that was worth going to see. I’m going to tell everyone I can about it.'"

“I’ve been given a gift to relate to a lot of people from a wide variety of backgrounds,” Jessta concludes. “I’m making music for everybody. Whether you’re 4-years-old or 84- years-old, you’re gonna love the music."

We're not the best, but we're pretty good.
