Willow Avalon

Originally from Georgia and now based in Nashville, Willow Avalon’s musical journey began
with her first word, “Elvis.” Raised by her mother and grandmother in a small Southern town,
she grew up playing piano in church and taught herself guitar at age 12, using songwriting
as both an escape and a means of self-expression through a life-journey that has been
anything but straight-forward. Her much-praised 2025 debut album, Southern Belle Raisin’
Hell, cemented her as one of country music’s most compelling new voices, blending classic
country, Americana, and pop influences. She has performed at The Late Show with
Stephen Colbert, CBS Mornings, and the Grand Ole Opry, as well as festivals like
Stagecoach, C2C, CMA, and Lollapalooza, bringing her electrifying presence to global
audiences. With a sharp wit and rebellious spirit, she has shared stages with legends and
rising stars alike, including Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan, Zach Bryan, Cage the Elephant, Paul
Cauthen, Charles Wesley Godwin, and more. Solidified by sold-out headline tours in North
America, Europe, and Australia, as well as hundreds of millions of views across social
content, Willow Avalon is redefining what it means to be a modern Southern storyteller.

Willow Avalon

Willow Avalon, a rural Georgia native whose first word was “Elvis,” grew up surrounded by gospel and country music. She began playing piano in church and taught herself guitar at age 12, quickly turning to songwriting as a means of escape and salvation. At just 15, she left home and spent a brief period living in her car before making her way to California. Now based in New York, Avalon writes, plays and produces her own music alongside a small group of trusted collaborators, crafting a sound that refreshingly blends classic country and Americana. Her debut EP, Stranger, has racked up over 30 million streams, and her songs “Tequila and Whiskey” and “Homewrecker” have earned widespread attention. Avalon’s unique style has led her to share stages with artists like Charles Wesley Godwin, Paul Cauthen, Cage the Elephant and more. Her anticipated debut album, Southern Belle Raising’ Hell, is due out January 2025.
