Paige Rutledge sparkles on stage - both figuratively, and literally. Her vibrant personality and rhinestone-studded guitar elevate her already commanding presence. Falling in love with country music from an early age, Paige’s first live performance was actually for loved ones at her grandfather’s funeral. It was here she learned just how powerful music can be in connecting people from all walks of life.

 

Paige is currently promoting the release of her debut EP, Breakup Rules, which has already surpassed 600,000 catalog streams. 2024 saw a number of exciting milestones for Paige, including performing at the first North of Nowhere Music Festival as part of their Emerging Artist Showcase, showcases at Country Music week at the CCMAs in Edmonton, and a release party for Breakup Rules downtown Toronto.

 

In 2023, Paige was a finalist in Lucknow’s Music in the Fields Emerging Artist Showdown, headlined Yonge and Dundas Square, and opened for Walker Hayes at Thunder Bay’s Country On The Bay summer festival. Paige also showcased at 2023 CCMA Country Music Week at the Diamonds In The Rough Showcase. The vibrant emerging artist released singles “Gone Ain’t Really Gone” in Spring and “The Worst Thing” in the Fall. Rutledge has had editorial support, including the cover of Amazon Music’s Breakthrough Country playlist, and slots on a number of playlists, including Spotify’s RADAR and Live Country (now North Country), and Amazon Music’s Breakthrough Country, Just North of Nashville, and Brand New Music.
