Five Finger Death Punch, which has amassed 25 Top 10 hit singles and 12 No. 1 singles, has released seven consecutive albums that were certified gold or platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America, as well as two chart-topping greatest hits albums. The band has earned numerous national and international awards and honors over the last decade.

Brantley Gilbert recently released "Son Of The Dirty South," featuring Jelly Roll via The Valory Music Co. With back-to-back platinum albums and a grassroots following of millions, Gilbert has inspired die-hard fans to join "BG Nation," a legion of hard-working, fun-loving believers for whom electric guitar-shredding, rapping and twang go hand-in-hand-in-hand.

His hits include the County Music Association's Awards Song of the Year nominee "Dirt Road Anthem" and RIAA five-time platinum-certified "Bottoms Up."
