(L-R): Jimmy Harnen (Republic Nashville President), Andrew Kautz (Big Machine Label Group General Manager), Scott Borchetta (Big Machine Label Group President/CEO), Trey Turner (Manager), Carson Chamberlain (Producer), Lee, Doug Nichols (Manager) and Allison Jones (Big Machine Label Group Vice President of A&R)
Nineteen-year-old Jackie Lee is the most recent addition to the artist roster at Republic Nashville that includes Martina McBride, The Band Perry, Eli Young Band and Sunny Sweeney as well as the recently added Greg Bates.
“Jackie has the kind of voice that you hear of once in a lifetime,” said Republic Nashville President Jimmy Harnen. “The first time I heard him in the studio I thought Carson Chamberlain, his producer, had some type of processing on his voice! It was pitch perfect and bigger than a house! I can’t wait for the world to hear Jackie Lee.”
At the age of six, Lee began singing with his family band outside of Knoxville in Alcoa, TN and had his first Nashville recording session. He is currently working on his debut album with Chamberlain.
