The Barefoot Country Music Fest is revealing a new performing artist every morning this week. Previously, it was announced that the three-day festival would be headlined by industry megastars Carrie Underwood and Blake Shelton, along with Dan + Shay. So far this week, Billy Currington and Jimmie Allen have been added to the lineup. We will update with each artist announcement.
Singer. Songwriter. Rapper. Entrepreneur.
Colt Ford has worn and continues to wear many hats. He was even a professional golfer for a time.
The self-described "Mr. Goodtime" is the latest artist added to the Barefoot Country Music Fest, where he will bring his unique blend of "country rap" to the Wildwoods for the first time.
According to his official website, Ford styles himself as "country's preeminent independent maverick." With over 3 million album sales, over 1 billion streams and millions of ardent followers on social media, it's hard to argue that claim.
Ford is also the co-founder of co-owner of Average Joe Entertainment, through which he has produced all seven of his albums (with another on the way this year).
Since releasing his debut album, Ride the Country, in 2008, Ford has appeared six times on Hot Country Songs charts and has collaborated with some of the industry's biggest names, including Toby Keith, Brad Paisley and Keith Urban.
Ford's latest album, We The People, Volume 1, was released in 2019. It is described on his website as "a soundtrack for positivity and living life to the fullest for these times." We The People, Volume 2 will be out later this year.
The inaugural Barefoot Country Music Fest will feature over 30 of the industry's "hottest acts and rising stars," performing on three stages on the Wildwood Beach from Friday, June 19 to Saturday, June 21.
