Hudson Westbrook “is on the cusp of bona fide country music stardom” (Rolling Stone). A
son of Stephenville, Texas, Westbrook was baptized by Red Dirt and raised on George Strait,
Turnpike Troubadours, Parker McCollum, Koe Wetzel, and Tracy Lawrence. After a 2024
splash debut with first-ever release, “Take It Slow,” Westbrook strung together a series of
grassroots hits while still enrolled at Texas Tech University, including Texas radio chart-
topper, “Two Way Drive,” and chart-topping debut single to country radio, “House Again.”
Revitalizing the organic country he was raised on while refusing to be held down by his
roots, Westbrook’s “traditional country sounds and timeless songwriting” (Billboard) have
become his calling card, fully realized on his Top 10, 17-track debut album, Texas Forever,
and expanded upon on follow up EP, Exclusive, out now.
Taking the spirit of Texas country music far beyond state lines, Westbrook is headlining
sold-out tours nationwide, alongside opening gigs with George Strait, Parker McCollum,
Morgan Wallen, Bailey Zimmerman, Midland, Ian Munsick, and many more. Amassing over
1.2 billion global streams in just under two years of releasing original music, Westbrook
was named a Billboard Country Rookie of the Month, a 2025 Artist to Watch by Spotify,
Country Now, Holler, The Country Wire, and a SiriusXM all-genre Five for 2025. Country
Central predicts: "Westbrook’s rise shows potential to lead a new generation of artists in
the Texas country realm."
