Since being a finalist on NBC’s America’s Got Talent (AGT) in 2022, Drake Milligan has continued to impress fans with his unique traditional country twang and performance quality as he is known to command a stage.
“It is kind of scary but also addictive being on that stage in front of many people especially in the live shows having millions of people watch you,” he said.
AGT was the perfect opportunity for Drake to showcase who he is as a musician and show the world what he has been working on and launch his music to the world.
Drake’s biggest takeaway from the show was being able to put on a performance to that caliber.
After AGT, Drake Milligan released his debut album Dallas/Fort Worth. He wanted the album to show his range as an artist and how every song showed a different side to him as an artist. The album has a mix of everything with sad songs, party songs, western swing, and songs that pay homage to his musical influences.
Drake moved to Nashville in 2017 and started writing songs for the album, which made it about a four year process putting Dallas/Fort Worth together.
“Dance of a Lifetime” is a favourite of his off the album and has become a very special song for him and dedicated fans, who have used the song for their first dance.
Drake Milligan recently reached a huge milestone with his first #1 song on his collaboration with country duo The Reklaws, “Honky Tonkin’ About.”
“It feels amazing, that is my first number one ever and to have it with the Reklaws, who I became fast friends with is great,” he said.
Drake Milligan is on his first headlining Canadian tour making stops in Regina, Saskatoon, Edmonton, and Calgary.
“I am looking forward to seeing new people and places and have some fun in Canada,”
Drake Milligan has already achieved so much success in his career with over 60 million streams globally and 6.5 million streams in Canada alone and is currently working on new music, adding new dates for live shows in the new year, and is keeping up the momentum!
