When asked, Jaryd Lane will tell you - without hesitation - what he enjoys most about music, âItâs all about the songs for me. Great songs with great stories.â All of the tracks, penned in Nashville for his new CD Riding For The Brand, proves that.From the anthemic âGod Bless The Country Girlâ to the high lonesome story told in âThe Wranglerâ (the CDâs first and last songs), Jaryd takes us on an emotional two-lane blacktop ride with songs big enough for radio and real enough for rodeoâ¦

This Louisiana native has been inspired by artists ranging from James Taylor to Merle Haggard, or as some would say âeverything from A-Z.â Whether heâs playing solo or with a full band behind him, Jarydâs raw and soulful voice is winning audiences all over the southwest. His first album, COUNTRY BOY SESSIONS, has made him the top selling local artist at the Lafayette Barnes & Noble for the past year, and his sales in southwest Louisiana have gotten national attention from the bookseller. He is also the #1 most requested local artist on 99.1 KXKC FM radio and has also been featured in KXKCâs top 100 songs of 2006 as #8.

About his first CD Jaryd says, âI wanted to make an album that really expressed where I was at the moment musically. I didnât want some overproduced project that wouldnât coincide with the live shows.â Riding For The Brand continues that quest with the growth and depth one might expect from Lane. Hard work doesnât scare him and heâs taking on Nashville with this CD and the hopes of scoring a major record deal.

In a style that varies from Skynyrd grit to acoustic country and blues, Jaryd touches hard working fun loving people with songs about love, sin, God, and family - with lyrics that speak to everyday people about everyday life.

The opportunity to open for national acts such as Edwin McCain, Chris Cagle, John Conlee, Sammy Kershaw, Mark Chesnut, Kenny Wayne Sheppard and Billy Currington to name a few, has helped this southerner turn more than a few heads and is continuing to do so.
