Rising Country Star Tony Stevens Joins Sakamoto Agency Following Breakthrough Year

Tony Stevens Signs to Sakamoto Agency

Fresh off his Top 10 success with “Whiskey in Colorado,” BC country artist Tony Stevens has signed with industry powerhouse Sakamoto Agency. The signing comes at a pivotal moment in Stevens’ career, as he prepares to release his debut album in spring 2025.

The breakout artist, who earned his first Canadian Country Music Association (CCMA) nomination for Songwriter of the Year, caught the attention of Sakamoto Agency’s President Paul Biro through his recent radio success. “Whiskey in Colorado” not only secured a spot in the Top 10 for four consecutive weeks but also ranked as the 12th most-played Canadian country song in 2024.

“Tony has proven himself as more than just a Top 10 artist,” says Biro, who will serve as Stevens’ Responsible Agent. “His character, sincerity, and the strong team around him make him an artist who can truly make an impact in this industry.”

The signing marks another milestone in what has been a transformative year for Stevens. Beyond his radio success and CCMA nomination, he emerged as a finalist in SiriusXM’s prestigious Top of the Country competition. His streaming numbers tell an equally impressive story, with “Whiskey in Colorado” accumulating over 4 million streams to date.

Stevens isn’t resting on his laurels. His latest single, “When I Hear That Song,” released through Willing Records and Universal Music Canada, hit airwaves in October 2024. “The opportunities that have already opened up have been incredible,” Stevens shares, expressing his enthusiasm about joining the Sakamoto roster. “I can’t wait to get out on the road!”

The partnership between Stevens and Sakamoto Agency appears to be a natural fit. The agency, recognized as CCMA’s Booking Agency of the Year for four consecutive years (2020-2023), brings over a century of combined industry experience to the table. Their recent expansion into radio promotions through GPS Promotion and the launch of their label subsidiary, Sakamoto Music, positions them well to support Stevens’ rising career.
