We are an independent, boutique music publishing company that develops the freshness of the industry’s emerging writers into collaborative powerhouses who produce sought-after lyrics.  Over the years, we have found that our tight-knit family of just four staff and 15 writers is the most effective setting to instinctively identify talent, foster their growth individually and as contributors, and make a mark on country music. We weather the shifting nature of the music industry because we stay true to the core: great songs written by great writers.

Our contribution to Nashville’s world-renowned music scene is consistent and progressive, making us one of the smallest firms to ever produce so many accolades. We work hard to maximize the value of each and every song through avenues that are most in-demand: streaming, radio and other formats. In just over 15 years, our songwriters have generated 75 #1 hits and our GRAMMY, CMA, ASCAP and other nominations and awards showcase our work with world-class superstars including Carrie Underwood and Kings of Leon. 

🌟We are currently celebrating our 75th #1 hit with simultaneous chart toppers “What Makes You Country” Luke Bryan and “Only Jesus” Casting Crowns. 🌟
