Comedy has Kill Tony.  Music has Playlisted.
Artists perform one song in front of a live audience and receive real, unfiltered feedback from industry guest hosts.

Chase Wright is a fast-rising country artist out of Lebanon, Indiana, who’s built real momentum without the traditional Nashville machine. A former collegiate track athlete turned self-taught musician, he moved to Nashville in 2019 and quickly carved out his lane with a sound that blends country storytelling with pop and R&B influence. He’s racked up hundreds of millions of streams, earned multiple “Artist to Watch” nods, and built a strong fanbase through songs like “Hurt No More” and “Wish You’d Miss Me.” His next album, Chasing Shadows, drops May 8, 2026, following a steady rollout of singles that’s helped build anticipation the smart, modern way. What separates Wright is his willingness to lean into real-life moments and vulnerability, proving that authenticity can cut through in a genre that often plays it safe.
