Rising Teen Sensation Maddox Batson Joins Jessie Murph at Hangout Fest: Rising teen sensation Maddox Batson joined pop artist Jessie Murph this weekend at Hangout Fest in Gulf Shores. Jessie surprised the crowd by bringing Maddox out to cover “Home” by Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros together, creating an unforgettable moment for festival-goers.

The performance is seeing major traction online, with the video nearing 2 million views and 250,000 likes in just one day.

Born just outside of Nashville in Hermitage, Tennessee, and raised in Birmingham, Alabama, Batson is known for his versatile talent. He combines modern neo-traditional Country with a touch of southern rock and pop, all backed by his infectious personality as a rising teen phenomenon. The 14-year-old spent last summer playing over 20 shows with four-hour sets, developing his sound and learning alongside his father, who is also a musician.

In addition to his captivating vocal presence, Maddox Batson’s charm shines through his rapidly growing online following. He has amassed over 200 million views in under five months and over 3 million followers across social media. His explosive debut single, “Tears In The River,” struck virality earlier this year with more than 5 million global streams, over 150,000 user-generated contents (UGCs) on TikTok, peaking at No. 18 on Spotify’s Viral 50 USA Chart, and reaching No. 12 on TikTok’s Viral Chart. These achievements have further solidified his status as a rising artist.
