Fresh country voice fills VEGA with powerful tones
It's not every day that an unknown country singer bursts onto the music scene and lands at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100. But that's exactly what happened when Christopher Anthony Lunsford – better known as Oliver Anthony Music – shared his song "Rich Men North of Richmond" on his YouTube channel.
Oliver Anthony Music has since taken the world by storm with his honest, powerful vocals and his unique ability to put into words the experiences that often go under the radar in mainstream pop culture. With songs that blend nostalgia, childhood memories and the harsh realities of adulthood, he manages to give hope to the hopeless and a voice to the voiceless.
His debut single "Rich Men From North of Richmond" currently has over 77 million views on YouTube and has been streamed more than 250 million times across all platforms. He also made music history by debuting at number one on Billboard without having previously had a song on the charts, and he has had a total of 13 songs on Billboard's Top-50 Digital Song Sales simultaneously – a feat no male songwriter has ever achieved.
In April 2024, he released his first studio album, Hymnal Of A Troubled Man's Mind, produced by Grammy winner Dave Cobb. The 11-track album has been praised for its authentic and down-to-earth sound, with acoustic guitars, bass and violin highlighting Anthony's soulful, raw voice, and taking the listener on a musical journey through the roots of traditional country.
On September 29, Danish fans will have the chance to experience America's new country voice when Oliver Anthony Music comes to Denmark for the first time to take over Store Vega and bring his honest and powerful music to Copenhagen.
