Warren Zeiders was just 22 years old when he signed his first recording contract with Warner Records’ Los Angeles office. At that point, fresh out of school, the second song he’d ever written called “Ride The Lightning” had seemingly exploded overnight into the social consciousness of young country music fans. After a series of live covers, the track caught fire and ignited a community of true believers before he’d ever toured or played outside his hometown of Hershey, PA. Zeiders’ distinctive, high energy country music is powered by a steady supply of youthful grit, honesty, muscle, and then, there’s that voice; a world-weary, lived-in, honeyed growl that belie his young years.

Hailing from central Pennsylvania—now relocated to Nashville—the 24-year-old singer/songwriter delivers outlaw sermons in his unmistakable authenticity. His music is suited more to the vast wilderness of his home state than the bright lights of the big city injecting a healthy dose of Heartland ethos into his stories of real life and the pitfalls of temptation. He walks a fine line, but it’s that space he lives in—between lonesome outsider and magnetic performer—that helps him relate to listeners from all walks of life through songs fueled by unshakeable soul-searching.
After the now-Platinum “Ride The Lightning” became an instant hit with fans, Zeiders released a string of rockin’ but heartfelt tracks on his own 717 Tapes platform and the raucous “One Hell of an Angel” that led People Magazine to surmise “Warren Zeiders is a wild horse who sings about the truth.” That momentum continues with his debut album, Pretty Little Poison. Delivered on the heels of his 717 Tapes releases and compilation album — a collection of stripped-back singles and EP songs that introduced his powerhouse voice and sharp songwriting — Pretty Little Poison repositions him as Nashville's newest headliner at just 24 years of age. The album’s Gold certified title track has taken Zeiders to new heights, reaching the Top 25 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart and Top 5 at Country Radio, and climbing.
To date, Warren Zeiders has amassed over 1.8 billion global audio streams, is consistently selling out venues across the country, and is working on new music for his ever-growing legion of fans.
