Saddle Bronc athlete-turned neo-traditional country music sensation Chancey Williams<\/strong> has gone from competing on horseback to performing on center stage. As one of only two artists (along with Chris LeDoux) to both compete in the rodeo and perform on the main stage at Cheyenne Frontier Days and the only singer\/songwriter to be endorsed by CINCH\u00ae, Williams is the next authentic cowboy of country music. The northeastern Wyoming native has toured the nation, taking the stage ahead of headliners Toby Keith, Cody Johnson, Alan Jackson, Dierks Bentley and Parker McCollum, performing at a sold-out Ryman Auditorium, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, as well as headlining at The National Finals Rodeo and multiple performances at the Grand Ole\u2019 Opry.<\/p>\n \u201cFor us, it\u2019s been a long journey of playing against what was popular in country music, but we just stayed the course,\u201d Williams told People Magazine of staying true to his roots. \u201cI always tell the band, don\u2019t worry about whatever any other artist is doing. We have blinders on.\u201d<\/p>\n Representing the western lifestyle and cowboy mentality in its truest form, The Cheyenne Frontier Days Hall of Fame inductee\u2019s sound and subject matter has found its time in Nashville\u2019s country scene, as demonstrated on his latest project release, seventh studio album Miles On Me.
