Founded in 2025 by multi-Platinum singer-songwriter and emerging music mogul ERNEST, DeVille Records is a new-school label built on old-school creative values, steering toward the future of country music. A joint venture with Big Loud focused on artist development, personal song craft and a collaborative spirit, the label is designed to build careers for the long haul – just like ERNEST’s prized Cadillac DeVille – and welcomes Chandler Walters, Rhys Rutherford, and Cody Lohden as its first signed artists. Handpicked and schooled in ERNEST’s classic-cool style, they make their debut on Cadillac Sessions, a mixtape-style compilation introducing each new talent. Featuring 16 tracks and a mix of originals and choice covers, the set was recorded at Nashville’s Castle Recording Studios bringing new energy to the timeless country craft, as Ern continues to “water Nashville’s songwriting culture” for a new generation of growth. Solo records for each new artist will be the next step, and from there, the road ahead is wide open.
