Warren Zeiders first turned heads in 2021 with his debut “Ride the Lightning.” Standouts like “Dirt Road Don’t” and “Never Look Back” introduced a gravelly twang and blue-collar authenticity lacking in today’s overproduced country landscape. 2023’s debut album “Pretty Little Poison” doubled down, with the raucous “Wild Horse” becoming an anthem for modern-day outlaws.
On stage, Zeiders is a whirlwind of intensity. With a no-holds-barred energy, he blurs the lines between revved up rockstar and introspective poet. His live shows are a cathartic exhale - loud, sweaty, and utterly real.
This year finds Zeiders continuing to blaze his own trail. He’s been road-dogging across America while teasing new music that promises to be his most uncompromising yet. When he takes the CMA Fest stage, prepare for a performance that grabs you by the collar and refuses to let go. Zeiders makes country music for the overtaxed and overlooked - CMA Fest is just the next congregation for his high-octane sermons.
