Years before forming one of Nashville’s most genre-bending bands, the members of Judah & the Lion grew up in separate corners of the U.S., listening to every type of music that came their way. They loved it all: the twang of folk, the beat of hip-hop, the drive of rock & roll, and the punch of pop.
Later, after college brought the musicians to Tennessee, it only made sense to combine those different backgrounds — and different sounds — together.

They opened for Twenty-One Pilots on their Emotional Roadshow Tour, Incubus and Jimmy Eat World on the 8 Tour in the US, and Kaleo’s Express Tour in Canada and Europe.
An independent band whose success has arrived not on the back of some big-budget major label, but through the band’s own touring, Judah & the Lion have built a large, loyal fanbase on the road. In January 2017, Billboard magazine named Judah & the Lion their first “Chartbreaker” artist.
The band released their third album, Pep Talks, on May 3, 2019. It peaked at No. 18 on the Billboard 200 and No. 3 on the Alternative Albums chart, and features tracks with Kacey Musgraves and Jon Bellion.
Judah & the Lion create a sound that belongs entirely to them.
In 2023 and 2024, the band toured supporting Needtobreathe on The Caves World Tour.
