Jon Stone Bets It All On BIA Records
• Multi-Platinum, award-winning songwriter, producer, and artist Jon Stone announced the launch of BIA Records. BIA — which stands for “Bet It All” — a boutique label centered around artist development, creative freedom, and hands-on support.
BIA Records was born from Stone’s firsthand experiences navigating the music industry as both a creative and a recording artist. “BIA Records came out of a lot of things, honestly — frustration, refinement, historical content, experiences from my own life, including trials and tribulations with record labels,” Stone said. “As an artist myself, I know what it’s like to have your art not be supported in the way that you believe it should be. That’s what we’re really striving to do: be a boutique label that provides superior artist-focused attention.”
Stone first broke onto the scene as a songwriter in 2006 with “Me and My Gang,” recorded by Rascal Flattsas the title track to their five-time Platinum album. He later celebrated his first No. 1 at Country radio with Lee Brice‘s “Woman Like You,” which also earned Stone his first SESAC Song of the Year Award, establishing him as both a hit songwriter and producer. Over the years, Stone’s work has been recorded by Kenny Chesney, Jerrod Niemann, and Blake Shelton, to name a few.
In 2013, Stone signed with Curb Records as one half of the Country duo American Young, alongside acclaimed fiddle player Kristy Osmunson. Together, they toured internationally across more than a dozen countries and earned two BCMA Award nominations.
Alongside its official launch, BIA Records also announced its first flagship signing, rising artist Nakessa, whose debut release will be unveiled soon. Pictured, (l-r): Jon Stone, Arlene Stone, Nakessa Fields, Jhanna Fields, and Don Clarkin.
