Debut Song from Red Van Records Available Friday
Acclaimed singer-songwriter Levi Hummon will release a new studio version of his fan-favorite song “Paying For It” on Friday. Walker Hayes, an award-winning, multi-platinum artist, joins him on the track. Hummon has been performing the song, which he co-wrote with Hayes and Eric Arjes, while on tour, and it has become a crowd favorite and viral hit. Hummon and Hayes released a demo of the tune in 2021 which has now garnered more than 23 million global on-demand streams.
The singers, along with producer Eric Arjes, recently recorded a studio version of the song that will be released Friday as Hummon's debut song for Red Van Records. The tune will be released digitally through TikTik’s SoundOn global distribution platform.
‘“Paying For It’ is a song that I have believed in since the day we wrote it,” said Hummon. “To not only have penned the song with Walker, but to have him featured on the song is a blessing. I’m grateful this brand-new studio recording being the first official release under Red Van Records. We got to step into the legendary Black Bird Studio with some of the best musicians in Nashville, and I’m blown away by how good this version sounds! I think there’s a good chance it might blow out some people’s speakers. Can’t wait to bring it to the fans out on the road very soon.”
With more than 175 million global streams, Hummon is a genre-bending artist and songwriter who continues to grow his audience on tour, through his social platforms, playlisting and craft-songwriting. A Nashville native, Hummon has written songs for Steven Tyler, Tim McGraw and many more, including his recent global No. 1, “Somebody,” recorded by K-Pop superstar D.O. from the group EXO. Along with those, his own catalog, including the multi-million streamed “Good Riddance,” “Stupid” and “Paying For It” featuring Walker Hayes, have earned Hummon wide-spread acclaim.
Under the Jonas Group Entertainment umbrella, Red Van Records recently announced its launch with Hummon as the inaugural artist signing. “With the values and ideals that are the foundation of Red Van Records, Levi is the perfect artist to launch our label,” said Phil Guerini, CEO of Jonas Group Entertainment/ Red Van Records. “He is so well respected in the music community as a complete artist, and he has been tireless in his pursuit of music and taking it to the fans on the road.”
