eOne Signs Multi Award Winning Country Artist Jason Blaine

Toronto, ON – Today, Entertainment One Ltd (eOne), is excited to announce the direct signing of multi-award-winning country singer Jason Blaine. Blaine has won Canadian Country Music Association award for Single of the Year (2012’s “They Don’t Make ‘Em Like That Anymore”), has earned three SOCAN Awards and written hits for Madeline Merlo, Chris Jansen and others. His current single ‘Drink Too Much’ is out now and his new EP is slated for release in the coming months.

“We are beyond thrilled to welcome Jason back to into the eOne Music family,” said Chris Moncada, Senior Vice President, eOne Music/ GM Last Gang Records. “He is a beloved artist in the country music world, and we look forward to continuing our efforts in getting Jason’s music out to his many fans.” 

“I am so excited to be back home with the team at eOne Music Canada. I have been with eOne for the majority of my career and am so excited about the team they have built”, said Jason Blaine. “I really feel my music is in great hands with this energetic group of people and can’t wait to see what the future holds”.

Originally from Pembroke, Ontario, Blaine moved to Nashville in the fall of 2006. Since then, he burst onto the scene in 2007 with his first #1 single, “Rock In My Boot,” the first of 11 further Top 10 smashes, paving the way for tours with Tebey, Chad Brownlee, Deric Ruttan, and appearances at major festivals across North America. To date, Blaine’s music has racked up over 10 million combined digital streams and 50,000 monthly listeners on Spotify.

Blaine’s success has also allowed him to give back to his community in Pembroke through the annual Jason Blaine Celebrity Charity Golf Classic, which over the years has attracted fellow artists such as Dallas Smith, Tim Hicks, Chad Brownlee, Aaron Pritchett and Gord Bamford, as well as hockey legends Doug Gilmour and Bryan Murray. It’s helped raise over $500,000 for various charities in the Ottawa Valley, and the 7th edition is set for June 17, 2020 at the Pembroke Golf Club. More information is available here.

About Jason Blaine

At the root of it all, Jason Blaine was born to sing, write and entertain. His love for country music has taken him to the forefront of the Canadian music scene where he has remained for over a decade. With over 12 Top 10 singles in Canada including hits such as “Country Side” and “Friends of Mine”, he has also become a craftsmen of hits for other people including Chris Jansen, Parmalee, Petric and Madeline Merlo and others.

Originally from Pembroke, Ontario, Blaine moved to Nashville in the fall of 2006 with his wife Amy and their three-month-old baby girl. He burst onto the scene in a big way in 2007 with his first #1 hit single “Rock In My Boot” which led to multiple CCMA nominations and paved the way for a string of hit singles and major festival appearances across the country.

Perhaps the biggest game changer came in 2012 when he released the biographical “They Don’t Make ‘Em Like That Anymore”, which was written for his grandfather. The song was one of his biggest hits connecting with fans of all generations and eventually went on to win CCMA Single of the Year that same year.

In between releasing hit songs and co-headling tours with Tebey, Chad Brownlee and Deric Ruttan, Blaine also found time to start up his annual Jason Blaine Celebrity Charity Golf Classic. Over the past five years, fellow artists and hockey legends ranging from Dallas Smith, Tim Hicks, and Gord Bamford, to Doug Gilmour and Bryan Murray have all contributed to helping raise over $500,000 for various hometown charities in Pembroke.

Now, a multiple CCMA, SOCAN & CMAO award winner with over 20+ radio hits, six full length albums, over 8 million digital streams, and Jason still feels like he’s just getting started. Writing full time within Nashville’s publishing community, Jason resides in Hendersonville, Tennessee with his wife Amy and their four children balancing music and family life.
