LAY LANDS UMG DEAL

2/17/16

UMG Nashville just signed Tennessee-bred singer/songwriter Brandon Lay. Lay—who scored a pub deal with Warner/Chappell in 2013—received the Harold Adamson Lyric Award at the 20th Annual ASCAP Foundation Awards this past December. He's previously toured with the likes of Brantley Gilbert, Darryl Worley, Ronnie Milsap, Randy Rogers Band and Wade Bowen.

Seen just before breaking into the fiercest freestyle battle east of the Mississippi are (front row L-R) UMG Nashville Chairman/CEO Mike Dungan, Brandon Lay, VP A&R Stephanie Wright, (back row L-R) SVP A&R Brian Wright, President Business and Legal Affairs Rob Femia, Morris Higham Management’s Kyle Quigley, UMG Nashville SVP Promotion Royce Risser, President Cindy Mabe and SVP/COO Mike Harris.
