The Country Radio Broadcasters have unveiled the artists featured in the New Faces of Country Music Show at CRS 2025. This year’s lineup includes Drew Baldridge, Ashley Cooke, Dasha, Zach Top, and Warren Zeiders. Co-sponsored by the Academy of Country Music and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, the show will take place during CRS 2025 in Nashville from February 19-21. The eligibility window for the show ran from November 1, 2023, to October 31, 2024.
For over five decades, the New Faces of Country Music Show has highlighted rising stars who have made significant progress on Country Radio. This will be the final year under the current guidelines, as the CRB Board has updated the selection criteria to include the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, reflecting the genre’s digital evolution. Labels and artist representatives will now manage submissions and confirm artist availability.
