American Idol Season 20 runner-up, HunterGirl, has signed a record deal with 19 Recordings/BMG.
HunterGirl will release her debut single on the label, “Hometown Out Of Me,” this Friday (Oct. 21). Written with Laura Veltz and producer Jimmy Robbins, the personal song serves as a thank you letter to HunterGirl’s hometown of Winchester, Tennessee.
HunterGirl has been performing and writing songs since she was a child, and in her early teens performed at venues across the U.S. Along the way, she competed in singing competitions, including the 2014 Texaco Country Showdown which she won. After graduating high school, she moved to Nashville and started playing gigs at Nashville’s most famous venues while as winning songwriting contests such as Nash Next and Nashville Songwriter Association International.
Sharing the stage with acts such as Old Dominion, FGL, Kane Brown, Alan Jackson, Trace Adkins, Charlie Daniels, Sara Evans and, most recently, Justin Moore and Tracey Lawrence, HunterGirl will kick off her co-headlining tour with American Idol Season 20 winner Noah Thompson on Oct. 27 in Columbus, Ohio.
