Natalie Stovall is an American country music artist/group composed of Natalie Stovall (lead vocals, guitar & fiddle), Joel Dormer (guitar, vocals), and James Bavendam (drums).
Born & raised in Columbia, Tennessee, Stovall is a powerhouse vocalist and multi-instrumentalist that has been playing professionally since she was ten. Her band, The Drive, are relentless road warriors that perform over 200 dates each year across college campuses, clubs, festivals and military bases around the world. A fiddle phenom, Natalie made her Grand Ole Opry debut at the age of 12, and has performed everywhere from the White House to The Oprah Winfrey Show.
After signing her first record deal with HitShop/Warner Bros. Records, in 2013, the band released "Baby Come On With It" at country radio after receiving airplay on Sirius XM Radio.[1] In advance of their EP release, the band released a self-titled extended play that includes the single and five additional songs.[2] The project was produced by Paul Worley[1] and Clarke Schleicher.[3]
Shortly after the success of "Baby Come On With It", the label folded. In 2014 Natalie independently released her single, “Mason Jar” and made her second Grand Ole Opry debut with the band.[4]
Leading up to the 2014 CMA Awards, Stovall was featured in "The Road to the CMAs” digital series with JCPenney and was the host on the 48th CMA Awards red carpet. Her first national television commercial aired during the award show with behind the scenes footage available on JCPenney's YouTube[5]
Natalie has been named one of CMT’s “Next Women of Country" and has recently been awarded “Best Female Artist” and “Best Music Artist” by Campus Activities Magazine.
Natalie has been touring with iHeartRadio DJ, Bobby Bones and the Raging Idiots, as a featured performer and is currently writing and recording for her 2017 release.
