A blue-collar, Tennessee-native, Fleet grew up with a love of music sparked by an eclectic mix of influences spanning from Merle Haggard to Marvin Gaye.

To make ends meet, Fleet spent tireless hours working construction jobs – never losing his dream of making music. A chance encounter with Jake Owen in 2017 led to a collaborative friendship and an opening slot on the road with Owen. Not long after, Fleet was sharing the stage with a living legend and one of his heroes – Willie Nelson – and etching his mark in the Nashville songwriting community, co-writing with esteemed tunesmiths including Rhett Akins, Brett James, and Kendell Marvel.

The hard-working family man (and father of 1-year-old son, Waylon) is now turning heads with his debut single Where I Find God, a powerful ode to finding peace in the higher power’s presence. Garnering Fleet praise from Billboard for his “emotive vocals,” the song’s official music video continues to resonate with fans, amassing more than 6 million YouTube views.

Where I Find God follows the release of Fleet’s aptly-titled debut album on Big Loud Records, WORKIN’ HARD, produced by studio ace Joey Moi (Jake Owen, Morgan Wallen).
