Nashville, Tenn. (October 31, 2017) – Warner Bros. Records/Warner Music Nashville star RAELYNN
is taking her already-proven songwriting talent to the next level,
signing a new joint venture with one of Music City’s most innovative
publishing companies – TREE VIBEZ MUSIC – and WARNER/CHAPPELL MUSIC.
Celebrating
the news with a party at Nashville’s FGL HOUSE yesterday (10/30), the
singer-songwriter joins TVM – founded by superstar duo Florida Georgia
Line in 2015 – as a hit-making artist who connects with fans on a deeply
personal level. Top-level executives from TVM, including Co-Founder
Tyler Hubbard, General Manager Leslie DiPiero, and Creative
Director/Tour Manager Adam Romaine, along with Warner Music Nashville’s
Chairman & CEO John Esposito, SVP of A&R Cris Lacy and
Warner/Chappell Music Nashville’s President Ben Vaughn turned out for
the event, launching a new chapter in the Texas native’s story.
Additionally, Leslie Roberts, Executive Director of Creative at
RaeLynn’s new performance rights organization home BMI, was also in
attendance.
“TVM
signed RaeLynn for her songwriting excellence and her unique artistry.
She’s a strong, soulful and fearless young woman,” says DiPiero. “We are
excited to start dreaming and working with her and Warner Chappell.”
RaeLynn co-penned 11 of 12 tracks on her #1 debut album, WILDHORSE
– including the powerful divorce ballad “Love Triangle” and the
resilient breakup anthem “Lonely Call,” which has accumulated an
impressive 10.4 million on-demand streams to date. The energetic artist
also co-wrote every single she’s released, including her GOLD-certified
2014 breakout hit, “God Made Girls,” which reached the Top 10 of the
Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and led to nominations at the ACM
Awards, CMT Music Awards, and Radio Disney Music Awards.
Endearing herself to fans on season two of NBC’s hit singing competition The Voice in 2012, she has since proved to be much more than a dynamic performer,writing
songs with top-shelf tunesmiths like Miranda Lambert, Natalie Hemby,
Shane McAnally, Emily Weisband, Jimmy Robbins, Josh Kerr, Nicolle
Galyon, Lori McKenna, and Liz Rose. She is currently out on her headlining RaVe Tour, which wraps up December 9 in Atlanta.
“Both
Warner Chapell and Tree Vibez are known for fostering a creative
community and championing their songwriters,” says RaeLynn. “I’m honored
that together they support the music that I’m creating. This really is a
dream come true!”
With
her TVM deal, RaeLynn has joined a red-hot – and trailblazing –
songwriting community. The Nashville-based firm is not limited to any
one genre, and its core values include individuality, hard work, and
bringing the good vibes. Along with RaeLynn, the talented roster
includes Corey Crowder (Chris Young’s “I’m Comin’ Over” and “Think of
You”), Jordan Schmidt (Jason Aldean’s “Lights Come On”), James McNair
(Luke Combs’ “Beer Can” and “Out There”), Cameron Montgomery (Ryan
Follese’s “Put a Label On It”), and Daniel Ross.
About RaeLynn:
RaeLynn’s current single “Lonely Call,” which she recently performed on TODAY, is the follow-up to her powerful first track “Love Triangle” from the Warner Bros. Records/Warner Music Nashville #1 debut WildHorse,
produced by Jimmy Robbins and Nicolle Galyon. “Love Triangle” tells her
personal story in a way that “is a raw and emotional account of what
it’s like to be the child of divorced parents” (People Magazine),
which media and fans immediately gravitated to, evidenced by the single
hitting Top 10 sales per spin while the music video has racked up over
10.5 million views since its release. The remainder of the 12-track
album, 11 of which were co-written by RaeLynn herself, is a broader look
into her life over the past few years since her breakthrough on NBC’s
hit show, The Voice. Recently selected as a 2017 “Country Artist to Watch” by Pandora, Napster and Billboard
and a current CMT Next Women of Country inductee, RaeLynn has tallied
165 million-plus cumulative career streams. She is poised to follow in
the early success of her Top 10, GOLD-certified song “God Made Girls”
that has tallied more than 1 million track equivalent sales and has been
streamed more than 55 million times. The rising star has earned
numerous award nominations including the Academy of Country Music
Awards’ New Female Vocalist of the Year, Radio Disney Music Awards’
Favorite Country Song and The Freshest! – Best New Artist Country, and
most recently CMT Music Awards’ Breakthrough Video of the Year, her
second in that category in addition to a Female Video of the Year nod.
The breakout star has had several national TV performances since The Voice, including appearances on Late Night with Seth Meyers and ELLEN.
