Platinum hitmaker and Opry member Lauren Alaina has signed with Big Loud Records.

Alaina released her album Sitting Pretty On Top of the World last September, and most recently teamed up with now labelmate Chris Lane on “Dancin’ In The Moonlight,” their reimagined version of King Harvest‘s 1973 hit.

“We feel like Lauren is absolutely one of the best vocalists, male or female, in this town,” Big Loud CEO/Partner Seth England shared with Billboard. “Certainly, she’s had success, but we humbly think she has barely scratched the surface of what we think we can do together. Lauren Alaina deserves to be, in my opinion, on the same pedestal as Carrie Underwood, and it’s our job to help her find that mode.”

Outside of music, Alaina has appeared on CBS’ Beyond The Edge, ABC’s Dancing With The Stars, and other national TV performances. She is a celebrity brand ambassador for Maurices, an artist ambassador for the CMA Foundation, an Amazon best-selling author, a Hallmark movie actress, and a philanthropist.

This summer she’ll make festival stops at Watershed, Tidalwave Music Festival, and more, alongside performances at the Grand Ole Opry through the end of the year. Fans can also expect new music later this year.

“I got a label that matches my personality: big, loud, and country,” Alaina told Billboard. “I really want to tap into my country roots. I don’t think people remember how southern I am…I’m a country girl through and through.” She continues, “[I want to] make music that I’m really proud of with a team that I’m really proud of. I want to do as much as I can do in the next 10 years. And I’d probably like to also get married and have some kids. So, I want to be able to balance all of that in the next 10 years. I think it’s gonna be the biggest 10-year span of my life so far.”
