NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Bob Doyle & Associates has signed Gunnar Latham, a former professional rodeo cowboy who has successfully transitioned into an emerging country music artist.
Gunnar Latham sings "modern cowboy songs." These aren't the dusty trail tunes of old, but those of an old soul interpreting the modern world with his own unique, cowboy perspective. He was born on a ranch outside San Marcos, Texas where his dad, a bull riding Southern Baptist minister, influenced his love for both music and the cowboy lifestyle at an early age.
Following in his father's footsteps, he took up rodeo at an early age and excelled at the sport. Being a standout team roper and steer wrestler earned him a scholarship to Sul Ross State University (Alpine, TX) where he competed nationally for 4+ years getting his permit card at 21 years old. The broken bones, broken hearts and broken dreams experienced on the circuit only served to lead him back to his true passion - music making and story telling.
During his formative years in his father’s church, Gunnar's passion for music was developed. He learned piano, guitar, drums and sang in the church choir. In late 2019 he felt called to leave rodeo behind and shift his focus to his first love. He spent 2020 focusing all of his attention and energy to developing his craft as a songwriter, singer and player. Gunnar's musical influences span from the timeless tunes of George Strait to the innovative beats of Mac Miller, reflecting a unique blend of traditional and modern sounds.
“As an entertainer, Gunnar got our attention quickly. Working in Texas has given him the opportunity to grow and carve out a show that is exciting and fun to see. We are honored to be a part of his journey,” says Michael Doyle.
