Dillon Carmichael performed “Keepin’ Country Alive,” the title track off of his newest album, “Son of A” and “She Gone” while in KYGO’s Performance Studio.
A 31-year-old from Burgin, Kentucky, Carmichael had the benefit of knowing what he wanted to do for a living from a young age, having grown up surrounded by a musical family. His mother is a singer, while his uncles – Eddie and John Michael Montgomery – have achieved success as artists in their own right, the former being one half of Montgomery Gentry.
He started chasing his dreams of becoming an artist at 15 when he learned guitar, and made plans – that he fulfilled – to move to Nashville after his high school graduation. Since then, he’s released three studio albums under Riser House Entertainment: “Hell on an Angel,” (2018) “Son of A” (2021) and “Keeping Country Alive” (2025). Two of the acts he’s toured with – Brooks & Dunn and Lynyrd Skynyrd – sum up his country and Southern rock sound.
