About Jerrod Lee Niemann:
Born July 24, 1979, Niemann is an American country music singer and songwriter. He has released three albums for Sea Gayle Music/Arista Nashville: Judge Jerrod & the Hung Jury (2010), Free the Music (2012), and High Noon (2014); and one album, This Ride (2017), for Curb Records. These albums have produced a combined ten Top 40 entries including the Platinum Number 1 singles “Lover, Lover” (a cover of Sonia Dada’s “You Don’t Treat Me No Good”) and “Drink to That All Night” and Gold Top 5 single “What Do You Want”. He has also co-written three singles for Garth Brooks: the chart topping Chris LeDoux tribute “Good Ride Cowboy”, as well as “That Girl Is a Cowboy” and “Midnight Sun”. Jamey Johnson, Lee Brice, Blake Shelton, Colbie Caillat, Diamond Rio, The Cadillac Three, Mark Chesnutt, John Anderson, Neal McCoy, Christian Kane, and Julie Roberts have also recorded Niemann’s songs.
Niemann parted ways with Arista Nashville in January 2016, shortly after releasing another single titled “Blue Bandana”.[6] In March 2016, Niemann signed a record deal with Curb Records. His first single for the label was “A Little More Love”, a duet with Lee Brice. It reached the top 30 of the Country Airplay chart.
In March 2017, Niemann released “God Made a Woman,” which he called his “favorite song I’ve ever recorded.”[7] Niemann’s wife, Morgan, is featured in the music video. It served as the lead-off single to his fourth studio album, This Ride, which was released via Curb Records on October 6, 2017.[8] “I Got This” was released as the album’s second single, and it peaked in the top 40 of the Country Airplay chart.[9]
After exiting Curb, Niemann independently released a digital-only album entitled Lost & Found in 2020. The release includes two singles: “Ghost Rider” and “Tequila Kisses”.[10]
