Triple 8 Management, in partnership with Crush Music, has inked Warner Music Nashville recording artist Morgan Evans.

The signing marks the first co-management endeavor for Crush, which is home to clients like Sia, Green Day, Fall Out Boy, Lorde, Weezer, Panic! At The Disco and more.

“It’s hard to not marvel at what Crush has built – numerous global arena and stadium artists,” said Triple 8 founding partner George Couri. “I always felt our individual experiences and strengths could be used to strong effect if combined. I am honored to be their first ever co-management partnership and look forward to growing Morgan’s promising career together.”

“George and I have been friends for a while, and have always talked about doing something together,” added Crush Music co-founder Bob McLynn. “I’m excited to do this with him and Griff at Crush South.”

Since bursting onto the Nashville scene with his Gold-certified, Top 5 hit “Kiss Somebody,” the Australia native has won several awards from organizations including ARIA, APRA, CMAA and CMC, as well as the CMA’s Global Country Artist Award. Evans recently released his latest single, “Love Is Real,” and is set to join Brett Eldredge on the Good Day 2021 Tour this fall.
