Singer-songwriter-actor and “Yellowstone” star Ryan Bingham has signed with WME for worldwide representation in music, the company announced on Thursday. He continues to be represented by Jack Whigham at Range Media Partners for film and television.
Bingham has had a remarkably versatile career that stretches back nearly 25 years. He released his indie debut album, “Wishbone Saloon,” in 2002 and his major-label bow, “Mescalito,” five years later. But he broke into the national consciousness in 2010 by co-writing and performing two songs on the soundtrack for the hit film “Crazy Heart,” including the song “The Weary Kind,” which earned him an Oscar, a Grammy, a Golden Globe and a Critics’ Choice Award. He was named Artist of the Year by the Americana Music Association the same year.
He has released albums steadily, but his star rose again in recent years with his recurring role as the ex-con and singer Walker on Paramount’s “Yellowstone.” His original music, including the track “Wolves” from his album “American Love Song,” has been heavily featured on the show.
Last May, Bingham released “They Call Us the Lucky Ones,” his first full-length album with his backing band the Texas Gentlemen, and hit the road for his headlining Still Gettin’ Away With It Tour ‘26, which ran through June. After a few festival performances, he will finish the summer supporting Zach Bryan on stadium dates in San Diego, Salt Lake City, Denver, and Glendale, AZ, starting later in July; he supported Bryan last September at his massive concert at Michigan Stadium, which drew an audience of 112,408 — setting the record for the largest ticketed concert audience in U.S. history.
