Dubbed "The most powerful man in country music" (Forbes), Bobby Bones continues to be an unstoppable force. With a "fiercely devoted following" (Washington Post) tuning into his nationally syndicated radio show, The Bobby Bones Show broadcasts to more than 120 stations and is the #1 Country morning show with millions of listeners each week. The show recently garnered its third ACM Award for National On-Air Personality of the Year, also earning a 2017 Country Music Association award for National Broadcast Personality of the Year and earned Bones the title of youngest ever inductee into the prestigious National Radio Hall of Fame. The "media multitasker" (Billboard) also launched his own podcast, BobbyCast, which features candid long-form interviews with top artists and industry figures and has been downloaded more than 6 million times. With his undeniable knack for recognizing and supporting new talent, Bones brought his expertise to the latest season of ABC's American Idol as mentor. He is also a touring stand-up comedian, philanthropist and chart-topping comedy artist—a true "jack of all trades" (ESPN). His new book, Fail Until You Don't: Fight. Grind. Repeat., landed at #1 on the New York Times Bestseller list. It follows his debut memoir, "Bare Bones: I'm Not Lonely If You're Reading This Book," which also landed at #1 on the New York Times, USA Today and Wall Street Journal Bestsellers Lists.
