Decorated songwriter and producer Shy Carter is introducing his first body of work as a recording artist, The Rest of Us, out now (listen HERE). Executive produced by GRAMMY Award-winner David Garcia, the EP showcases Carter’s unique brand of soul country The musical multi-talent first introduced his sound with the earthy groove and unflagging spirit of“Good Love” and, most recently, raucous county anthem, “Beer With My Friends” (feat. Cole Swindell and David Lee Murphy). Carter co-wrote all eight tracks on the project, including the “enchanting” and “swoonworthy” (MusicRow) title track.

“This EP is good music for good people!” Carter said. “We’ve got something for everyone – the party people, the people who are feeling the feels… and the rest of us! Much love to my team, my producer, my co-writers and all y’all beautiful people.”

Fans can celebrate the milestone alongside Carter on Thursday (11/4) at Ole Red Nashville, where he will take the stage for a special, livestreamed set at 8:30 p.m. CT. Tune in virtually on his Facebook page HERE or via Ole Red HERE. The born entertainer recently wrapped a west coast run with Tyler Rich, which included a stop in Los Angeles at the world-famous Troubadour.

Carter burst onto the scene in 2020 the “broad, breezy optimism” (NPR) of “Good Love.” He debuted “Good Love on NBC News’ 3rd Hour of TODAY (watch HERE) earlier this year, and the song was also featured on the Hallmark Channel. His “barroom banger” (MusicRow) “Beer With My Friends” can be heard on radio airwaves. Its official music video (watch HERE) features real-life buddies and collaborators Cole Swindell and David Lee Murphy. Taste of Country praised the single for its “modern, yet ‘90s country-influenced melody” and “gang-vocal chorus” that are “sure to get the party started.”

ABOUT SHY CARTER

Artist, songwriter and producer Shy Carter has reached all corners of the industry with his early success. With credits that span Kane Brown’s “Heaven” to Charlie Puth’s “One Call Away,” Carter is one of the most formidable up-and-coming talents in Nashville and beyond. He is among the writers behind Billy Currington's “It Don't Hurt Like it Used To,” Sugarland’s smash hit “Stuck Like Glue” and Rob Thomas’ single “Someday.” In addition to his feature on Tim McGraw’s “Way Down,” Carter has collaborated with Keith Urban on both “Never Comin’ Down” and “My Wave.” Named to Variety’s 2018 Hitmakers list, he has also worked with Jason Derulo, Meghan Trainor, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Lopez, Nelly and more. His roots in gospel, jazz, R&B and soul developed into an early career in hip-hop, but his gift for storytelling and love of organic instrumentation led to a natural transition into country music. Now, with a transcendent style perfectly suited to the times, he’s ready to stand on his own as a country artist. His soul-infused sound spans the eight tracks of his debut EP, The Rest of Us, available now. The EP ties a thread from the earthy groove and unflagging spirit of “Good Love” to raucous country anthem “Beer With My Friends” (feat. Cole Swindell and David Lee Murphy). The born entertainer made his TODAY debut this spring and has been named a 2021 Artist to Watch by Amazon Music, MusicRow magazine, Pandora, Sounds Like Nashville and more.
