Jared Daws
With a brand built on authenticity and integrity alike, the sounds of the deep American south are intricately rooted and cleverly woven into the words and melodies of the songs of Jared Daws. Daws’ accolades include not only being a multi-award-winning singer-songwriter as he has also been honored to share the stage with class acts such as Rodney Atkins, Hinder, Alana Springsteen, Erin Kinsey & more. Backed by his band “The Dusk Singers,” cleverly named after a Mississippi cicada, Daws has toured across the U.S. bringing his show from coast to coast. Since 2023, Daws has released a full studio album, an EP, and two singles, "Road Dog" and "Come On Home" which feature production and studio work from members of the bands of Sierra Ferrell, Colter Wall, Sam Barber, & Brothers Osborne. "Road Dog" has since gone on to win gold in the International Singer-Songwriter Association Awards for 'Single of the Year' and has been submitted to the Grammys for consideration in 'Best Americana Performance.'
