Inspired by Dillon’s passion for the Nashville creative community, Gatsby Records aims to be a home for artists who aren't afraid to sound different and tell raw, transformative stories. “If it’s raw, if it’s beautiful, and if it even scares you a little, then it belongs at Gatsby Records,” Dillon shared.


Faith expressed her excitement: “Cherry Valley is deeply personal, and I’m honored to work with Jessie Jo and MCA to bring it to life. She’s building this label with true heart and soul.”


MCA leadership praised the partnership. President & CEO Mike Harris called the imprint an extension of MCA’s commitment to artist development, while Chief Creative Officer Dave Cobb lauded Dillon’s deep artistic vision and ability to support creators.

With Gatsby Records, Dillon and MCA usher in a new era of country music—starting with Carter Faith.
