TJ Rosenthal

For Country/Americana artist TJ Rosenthal, music is about the road and the everyday stories. A former D1 and minor league baseball player, Rosenthal found country music on buses and highways—forging the fiercely independent work ethic he brings to his music today. Now a seasoned touring act himself thanks to the experience of having toured in various bands, Rosenthal has traveled nationally and earned international sync placements, including on TNT’s Dallas. His recordings feature producer Blake Sterling and mastering by Sterling Sound’s Justin Shturtz (HARDY, Dolly Parton, Morgan Wallen) in Nashville. His debut LP was praised by Lonesome Highway as “a very engaging eleven songs,” while Saving Country Music highlighted his work as highly anticipated. His standout single “Rodeo Clown” was named a Top Pick by Maverick Country and featured on Country Swag’s “Songs You Need To Know.” From the upfront storytelling of New York’s WFUV favorite “Bad Habits” to his countrified take on Tom Petty’s “Refugee” and his latest single “Riverboat Gamblin’ Man” the NYC-based artist brings a fresh perspective to Country/Americana—proving authentic roots music belongs wherever the stories are real.
