ABOUT FFAK:
Fit For A King harness the power of their brotherhood in order to push forward. The music contains traces of the members' personal and collective experiences grafted onto an ever-evolving sonic palette of metalcore unpredictability, alternative melody, and deathcore brutality laced with electronic alchemy. As trends came and went in the background of the last decade, the quintet has weathered trials and tribulations as well as enduring the chaos of a world constantly influx. However, their bond stretches back to 2011 when Fit For A King unleashed their independent debut Descendants. They continually progressed with Creation/Destruction [2013], Slave to Nothing [2014], Deathgrip [2016], and The Path [2020]. Meanwhile, 2022's The Hell We Create marked their fifth Top 3 debut on the Billboard Top Christian Albums Chart and third straight Top 15 debut on the Top Album Sales Chart. Outburn applauded how, "With The Hell We Create, Fit For A King takes on a new depth," and KERRANG! assured, "It hits hard in all the right places." They've impressively garnered just shy of half-a-billion streams fueled by staples like "When Everything  Means Nothing," "The Price of Agony," "Breaking the Mirror," and more. Along the way, they also collaborated with the likes of August Burns Red, The Plot In You, The Ghost Inside, and We Came As Romans in addition to packing houses on tour. In 2025, you can hear their strength and camaraderie loud and clear on their eighth full-length offering, Lonely God [Solid State Records].

HUNTERGIRL CELEBRATES ROOTS AND RESILIENCE WITH NEW SONG “DIRT” — OUT NOW

America’s sweetheart and powerhouse songwriter HunterGirl releases her new song “Dirt,” produced by CMA Award–winning Trent Willmon (Cody Johnson), today via 19 Recordings/BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. Steeped in authentic country storytelling, “Dirt” paints a vivid picture of small-town traditions, family ties, and the timeless wisdom passed down through generations. From creek bank fishing trips and garden rows to Sunday talks and muddy four-wheeler rides, the track reflects HunterGirl’s own Tennessee upbringing with a heartfelt reminder: out of all the roads you take in life, make sure some of them are dirt. Listen Below.


The new release follows the success of her label-debut Tennessee Girl EP and breakout song “Ain’t About You,” further cementing HunterGirl’s reputation as one of country music’s most dynamic rising stars. Praised by People for her “incredible voice” and CMT for her “soaring vocals and superstar potential,” HunterGirl continues to connect with fans through songs that feel lived-in and universally relatable.


“‘Dirt’ is about the little things that shape who you are — the places, people, and memories that keep you grounded no matter how far you go,” shares HunterGirl. “For me, that’s Tennessee soil, my family, and all the lessons I learned growing up. I hope listeners hear their own roots in this song and are reminded of what makes life truly matter.”

HunterGirl, who first captured America’s heart as the runner-up on American Idol, was named to CMT’s 2024 Next Women of Country and has been spotlighted by MusicRow as “a major, major new talent.” With nearly 80 million global streams, a Grand Ole Opry debut to standing ovations, and tours with Luke Bryan and Kimberly Perry, she has quickly become one of Nashville’s most exciting new voices.

About HunterGirl: 

HunterGirl is a vocal powerhouse and sharp songwriter rooted in Tennessee storytelling. Onstage since age three and writing by nine, she has performed nationwide and worked with veterans nonprofits such as Operation Song, Freedom Sings, and A Soldier’s Child, helping service members turn their stories into songs. After moving to Nashville, she cut her teeth in Lower Broadway’s most storied rooms, building a loyal base and a reputation for command of the stage. In 2022, she captured national attention as the runner up on American Idol, delivering standout performances that won over millions. Idol judge Luke Bryan called her the “new age Miranda Lambert” and his “favorite female Country voice.” Momentum followed. Named to CMT’s 2024 Next Women of Country and praised by People for her “incredible voice,” she has shared stages with Old Dominion, Florida Georgia Line, Kane Brown, Alan Jackson, and Lainey Wilson, and toured with Luke Bryan and Kimberly Perry. MusicRow calls her “a major, major new talent.” With nearly 80 million global streams and a Grand Ole Opry debut, she continues to connect through songs that feel lived in and true to her roots. Her label debut EP Tennessee Girl showcased range and heart, led by fan favorites “Bad Boy” and “Ain’t About You.” She can fire off a big chorus, then drop to a line that hits like a confession, a mix of power and vulnerability that has become her calling card. On October 10, she returns with “Dirt” on 19 Recordings/BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville, a song that celebrates the people and places that shape you and the simple lessons that keep you grounded. It is the next step for an artist writing from real life and carving out her own lane in country music.
