Bottomland

There’s a new name buzzing out of the Lone Star State—and it’s making serious noise. Bottomland, the Southeast Texas duo made up of Cannon Brand and Justin Lane Gates, is carving a lane of their own with a sound that’s as raw as it is refreshing. Think: the storytelling soul of Texas country colliding head-on with the attitude of early 2000s pop-punk. The result? A gritty, high-octane blend that’s putting this rising act on the map in a big way.

Forged in the honky-tonks and listening rooms across Texas, Bottomland didn’t just appear overnight. These guys cut their teeth the old-fashioned way—onstage, city to city, song after song. Since their official debut on March 7, 2025, they’ve seen a meteoric rise that speaks to both their authenticity and undeniable talent. Their breakout single, “Over You, Over It,” has already surpassed 1 million streams, and they’re currently clocking 150,000+ monthly listeners on Spotify—not bad for a band that’s only just getting started.
With lyrics rooted in heartbreak, grit, and small-town resilience, Bottomland’s music captures a distinctly Southern spirit while embracing a youthful edge. It’s no surprise the industry’s catching on, too: the duo recently signed with WME for booking, setting the stage for a bigger touring footprint and even more ears on their music.Music & Audio

Bottomland is more than just a band—it’s a movement from the bottom up. And if the early buzz is any indication, they’re only going up from here.
