Chris Heaton, commonly known as Heaton, is one of the fast-rising name names in the country hip-hop scene. At 36, Heaton has successfully launched a promising career with his unique hip-hop style. He shares an unparalleled work ethic and passion that sets him aside from other artists.
Before launching his solo career, Heaton was a dominant face in rock bands, sharing the stage with notable acts such as Slaughter, Skid Row, and Bang Tango. However, the urge to write and produce his music drove him into the studio, a life-changing decision.
Heaton released his first country hip-hop EP “South of 92,” in Sept last year. This was after the release of an album where Heaton was featured by the talented Adam Whitehead on his song “Billy Bountain” on his album “The B Tapes From Orchard”. Incredibly the album has gained industry traction, which includes debuting at #7 on the iTunes country charts Memorial Day of last year, just a couple of spots below Zack Bryan. A fan favorite, Heaton has held weekend cover shows where he travelled to the Midwest which linked and opened up the room for collaborations with other artists.
According to Heaton, his music is a reflection of his life experiences, as well as the struggles and triumphs of those around him. He is a jack of all trades who spent the last few years serving in different capacities, including working as a city councilman while pursuing his bachelor’s degree. But regardless of his busy schedule, Heaton has successfully managed to nurture and grow his musical dreams, becoming one of the highly sought-after rising stars.
His single “Backyard” is a perfect example of this, as it narrates the story of a whole town and the people who call it home. The lyrics are relatable and resonate with his audience, who recognize the references and themes in his songs.
Though the path to music may be challenging, Heaton remains dedicated and committed to his dream. He firmly believes that everything is possible with hard work and resilience. Heaton also champions surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals who believe in your dreams.
In the coming months, Heaton wants to continue making music and grow his fan base. He also wants to inspire others to pursue their passions and follow their dreams.
