About

Rolling Stone says.. "Lopez has landed on a sound that flies straight through multiple eras of rock, pop, and country..” Born and raised in Martinsburg, West Virginia, Lopez signed his first record deal with Blaster Records when he was just 18, teaming up with multi-Grammy winning producer, Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton) for his debut album, “Onward” released in 2015.

With the will of his voice and the stomp of a steady beat, Lopez is pioneering his own brand of American music, translating the iconic landscape before him into rousing romps and soaring serenades.

In 2017, Lopez released his critically acclaimed sophomore album “Red Arrow”, featuring guest appearances from Vince Gill and Kenneth Pattengale of The Milk Carton Kids. Recorded at Nashville’s iconic Blackbird Studio D with producer Marshall Altman, Red Arrow received widespread praise, with American Songwriter calling it “truly electric.” And Rolling Stone coining Lopez one of 2017’s “New Country Artists You Need To Know.”

Lopez has also made his mark as a brand ambassador, partnering with Belk’s “Modern Southern Music” showcase, opening shows for acts like Zac Brown, Dave Matthews, and Miranda Lambert. In addition, his partnership with the West Virginia Board of Tourism saw his music featured in national campaigns, further solidifying his status as an ambassador for his home state.

In 2020, Lopez teamed up with British producer, Robert Adam Stevenson, marking the beginning of a new creative chapter. His third album, The Other Side, recorded at Sonic Ranch in El Paso, TX led to a European tour including memorable performances across The Netherlands. The Other Side was later picked up by PMD Records for distribution in the Benelux, expanding Lopez’s international fan base. Billboard said, “Christian Lopez welcomed change when it came time to write for his upcoming third studio album, The Other Side. The West Virginia-born singer-songwriter left Nashville for the West Coast to find himself and his sound. He’s all the better for it, too..”

Lopez’s most recent full length album, Magdalena (2023), was recorded in self-seclusion at his ranch home in Magdalena, New Mexico. Co-produced with Stevenson, Lopez took this chance to be unapologetically himself. Forbes said, “filled with love and loss, featuring stripped down songs accompanied by a four-piece band chasing the purest form of the song. Magdalena sounds like a record made in the 1970s, or from the Alt-Americana roots wave of the 2000s.”

Lopez’s captivates audiences internationally and makes regular appearances at the Grand Ole Opry - where he recently debuted his latest single “Let It Sink In” from his new self-titled EP - OUT NOW
