Throughout the course of his career, Sundance Head has written and recorded with the likes of ZZ Top, been a top finisher on not one, but two major network talent competitions, had four #1 songs on the Texas Music charts, has been singing his entire life, and toured with some of the top artists in the business.
Sundance comes by his musical talent honestly, growing up in a household where he watched and learned from his father, Roy Head, who had a hit in the '60s with “Treat Her Right.” As a boy, he was also heavily influenced by his late older brother’s record collection, which included a myriad of artists like James Brown, Patsy Cline, George Jones, Marvin Gaye, and Queen, just to name a few.

During high school, he put a band together and began playing gigs and writing non-stop. With the help of a friend, he recorded more than 100 hours of his songs in a studio that his friend built especially for him. When he met his wife, Misty, she encouraged him to pursue his talent in earnest. In 2006, Sundance traveled to Memphis to try out for American Idol. After several auditions, he landed a spot on the show and ultimately placed in the Top 13, impressing the judges with his searing vocals and lung power.
Sundance’s wife also encouraged him to try out for another show, The Voice. This time, his unique and powerful voice captured the hearts of America, and he won the competition. He found help and guidance from his team captain, Blake Shelton, and took to the road with him on a portion of his “Doing It To Country Songs” tour in 2017. He also opened shows for Zac Brown Band, in addition to playing a slate of his own gigs.
Sundance continues to tour across the country while crafting songs behind the scenes, with no intentions of slowing down.
