Bonner Black, the classically trained ballerina turned singer/songwriter from Hot Rock, TN, began her life on stage at 4 years old. In her early teen years, she taught herself to play guitar on YouTube and, by the time she was in 9th grade, she was writing and performing in Nashville 3 to 5 days per week, made possible by homeschooling. At seventeen, Black moved to Nashville to continue honing her craft and embarked on her first regional tour throughout the Southeast. During that time, Black participated in four lobbying trips with NSAI to Washington, DC to advocate for songwriters and copyright law reform. In 2016, she was awarded the Artist Entrepreneur Award by The Oxford Center of Entrepreneurs at The Times Center in New York City. With over 500 shows under her belt, she has opened for acts like The Bellamy Brothers, Charlie Daniels, and The Band Perry, and has been a regular at Nashville’s most popular songwriter venues, The Bluebird Cafe and The Listening Room.
At the top of 2023 she announced new tour dates and released the first single from her newest project, “Breaking A Sweat”. The sweet, nostalgic 90’s, indie pop summer anthem made its debut on Nashville’s #1 independent radio station, Lighting 100 and was placed on Spotify’s, “Next Gen Singer-Songwriter”. She quickly followed with second and third singles, “Take Me On” (dreamy, driven, reminiscent of Go Your Own Way by Fleetwood Mac) and “I’m Not Your Girl” (a blood pumping scream in your car song for hopeless romantics) which gained over 71,000 new streams. The next fourth single, “Catch 22”, . was placed on Spotify’s “Fresh Finds Pop”. Her highly awaited debut album, “Hopeless RomANTICS,” released on February 13th with a sold out Nashville album release show as testament to her evolution as an artist and storyteller, it has gained over 250k streams. Bonner Black stands as an embodiment of passion, resilience, and authenticity.
