Blaine Larsen

From the very first note of his new album, Not Too Bad, there's no doubt where Blaine Larsen stands on making music -- his own kind of music. Each song is marked by an easy confidence and a sound that is unapologetically country. With two studio projects already under his belt at age 23, the Washington state native is now more focused than ever on making music that will sound just as good in the decades to come as it does today. In short, Blaine is an artist whose music will never go out of style. While making Not Too Bad has been the experience of a lifetime for Blaine, one recent accomplishment just might trump it on his list of career milestones. In the process of making his latest record, Blaine's also been establishing himself as a songwriter in Nashville, and he's already taken the holy grail for any Music City tunesmith -- a George Strait cut. Blaine co-wrote "I Gotta Get To You," which is included on Strait's 2009 release Twang. Amazingly, the Strait cut is the first time Blaine's had one of his songs cut by an artist other than himself, but he's no stranger to country's A-list when it comes to performing. Tours with the likes of Brad Paisley, Rascal Flatts, and Kenny Chesney have put Blaine in front of country music's biggest audiences in the past few years, and that excitement of performing live is a big part of what keeps Blaine in the music business chasing this crazy dream.
