Grammy, IBMA and CMA award-winning multi-platinum star, Dan Tyminski, has signed a worldwide recording contract with Muscle Shoals/Nashville-based 8 Track Entertainment, it was announced today by 8 Track Entertainment President, Noah Gordon. Tyminski’s first single for the label, “Hey Brother,” a global smash originally recorded with Swedish DJ Avicii, will be released this fall.

Growing up, 14-time Grammy Award-winning guitarist and singer Dan Tyminski wasn’t really a six-string picker, favoring mandolin or banjo when he joined the jam—until he heard Tony Rice, that is. Hearing Rice kick-off “Ten Degrees and Getting Colder” with J.D. Crowe and the New South for the first time, Tyminski was overtaken by the sound, forever changing his trajectory as a musician. Like the rest of the tight-knit bluegrass world, Tyminski was devastated by the loss of his hero in late 2020.
