As an artist, Hurd is following a unique strategy of releasing music and videos prior to radio or downloads being available. “We Do Us”—the first song released on Spotify—received 2m+ streams in just three weeks, and a subsequent release, “City Girl,” has already crossed the 10m mark. He’s joined an elite group of artists from all genres to be featured in Vevo’s dscvr program (Sam Smith, Halsey,Leon Bridges, Hozier). He was also included in Rolling Stone Country’s “Artists You Need to Know” list, and CMT named him one of its “Listen Up Artists of 2016.”
