Royale Lynn brings a signature blend of hard rock and country to life with fearless ambition.

A small-town girl turned Nashville singer/songwriter, Lynn grew up with Avril Lavigne and Breaking Benjamin in her CD Walkman and makes music with gutsy abandon and charm. Lynn’s songs resonate with folks equally cozy at Stagecoach Festival or Sonic Temple. 

Heralded by Billboard as “a ferocious newcomer with ceiling-scraping vocals,” Royale Lynn’s boundary-smashing amalgamation of hard rock and country demonstrates the growing appetite for her brand of genre-bending. 

“I know there are a lot of people who grew up in the country that love rock, and vice versa” Lynn reasons. “I want to bring together a community of people who embrace being different and who are open to talking about mental health in small towns.”

That coming together is already well underway, as evidenced by the success of self-released singles like “Six Feet Deep” (which blew up on TikTok and Instagram) and “Redneck Rockstar.” Over one million people around the world listened to Royale Lynn on Spotify alone in 2023, well before the support of a record label, management, or industry professionals. 

“Six Feet Deep” acquired over 20 million social media views between Facebook reels, Instagram and Tik Tok. It shot to No. 1 on Billboard’s Hard Rock Digital Sales chart.

Lynn grew up riding horses on a small farm and started singing before she could talk. At 15, she was handpicked from a group of 100 girls to play Hannah Montana in a traveling tribute show and spent the next year playing clubs, theaters, and county fairs. 

“After high school, I didn’t really know what was going to happen, but music kept finding me,” she says. “There was never really a plan B. It’s always been my dream to do this.” 

Lynn officially moved to Music City in 2018, determined to make her dreams happen. During her first week in town, several serendipitous occurrences convinced her to stay. 

She spent the next few years playing 4 hour sets on Broadway to tourists and lent her songwriting chops to different collaborators. She’s since co-written viral anthems like Spencer Crandall’s “K[no]w Better” and Alexandra Kay’s “Painted Him Perfect” to name just a few. 

“The songwriters embrace each other here,” she says. “Nashville is such a magical place. It truly has my heart. It’s a place where anything can happen. And that’s what excites me.” 

The earnest resolve, huge hooks, and catchy melodies of songs like “Rocket Man” and “Runs in the Water” are undeniable. She played dozens of shows in 2023, including support slots with Luke Combs, Eli Young Band, and Jarrod Niemann, as well as a slew of headlining gigs across the country. In November 2023, she signed a worldwide deal with Epitaph Records.

The sky’s the limit as Royale Lynn shares more of her music and herself with the world. “I just want to create,” she says. “If I sound more rock on some days and more country on others? Who cares? Why stay in a box? It’s just not something I can do and remain authentically myself.”
