ARTIST TO WATCH ERIN VIANCOURT TO RELEASE DEBUT ALBUM WON’T DIE THIS WAY JULY 21 VIA LATE AUGUST RECORDS

FIRST ARTIST SIGNED TO CODY JINKS’ NEW LABEL

“SHOULD’VE KNOWN BETTER” DEBUTS TODAY

SUMMER TOUR DATES CONFIRMED

May 5, 2023—Emerging singer, songwriter and musician Erin Viancourt will release her anticipated debut album, Won’t Die This Way, July 21 via Late August Records—the first artist signed to the new label founded and led by Cody Jinks (pre-order/pre-save here). Ahead of the release, new song, “Should’ve Known Better,” is debuting today. Listen/share HERE.

Produced by Viancourt and Kyle Dreaden and recorded at Nashville’s Forty-One Fifteen and The Smoakstack, Won’t Die This Way explores the complexities of the human heart, as Viancourt addresses the joys and chaos of change, regret and life’s simple pleasures across thirteen full-hearted tracks infused with traditional country sounds.

Reflecting on the record, Viancourt shares, “I hope this album makes people want to move around a dance floor with a cold beverage, sing at the top of their lungs with the windows down, and keep moving forward with whatever they’re looking for in life. Most of all I hope it reminds everyone that they’re not alone and we’re all a little crazy—so let’s all grow together and do it with style.”

In celebration of the new music, Viancourt will perform a headline show at Dallas’ Adair's Saloon tonight and will join Jinks on the road this summer including shows at Midland’s Midland County Horseshoe Amphitheater (two nights), Charlotte’s Skyla Credit Union Amphitheatre (two nights), Huntsville’s Orion Amphitheater, Jacksonville’s Daily’s Place Amphitheater, Orlando’s Orlando Amphitheater at Florida Fairgrounds, Cleveland’s Jacobs Pavilion at Nautica and Sterling Heights’ Michigan Lottery Amphitheatre at Freedom Hill. See below for complete itinerary.

In addition to Viancourt (vocals, acoustic guitar), Won’t Die This Way also features Mike Daly (Dobro, pedal steel), Jake Finch (drums, bongos, percussion), Jordan Harazin (12 String Guitar), Dylan Jones (keyboards), Jake Lenter (acoustic guitar, electric guitar), Alex Lyon (bass guitar), Austin “Hot Rod” Tripp (pedal steel) and Austin Webb (electric guitar, acoustic guitar, baritone electric guitar, electric mandolin) as well as songwriting collaborations with Jinks, Kendell Marvel, Ward Davis and more.

Raised in Cleveland, OH, Viancourt began writing songs as a teenager after finding inspiration from writers such as Jerry Jeff Walker and Shel Silverstein. After high school, she moved to Nashville to hone her skills as a songwriter and musician, before heading out on the road, where she’s since established herself as a natural live performer.
