WCM NASHVILLE'S NEW HQ: BYO QUARTERS
4/18/22

Warner Chappell Nashville President/CEO Ben Vaughn, flanked by ace creators Parker Welling and Nicolle Gallyon, celebrates the opening of the pubbery's rad new Music Row digs, featuring a performance space, full bar, Led Zeppelin pinball machine and other vital amenities that we will likely be barred from ever experiencing. Ben was so psyched that he issued a quote, which we've duly pasted below. Unfortunately, the new building's sign reading DAYS WITHOUT A HITS PHOTO OP had to be turned back to zero.

"Today is extremely special, as we now have an office dedicated entirely to team Warner Chappell and the songwriters who drive music forward in Nashville," reads Vaughn's pronouncement about the Michael Cronin-designed offices. "A process years in the making, we dreamed this space up in collaboration with our writers and with creativity in mind, to design an environment where everyone who walks through our doors feels inspired and at home. We’re proud of the space and are excited to continue to deepen our roots on Music Row – the true heart and soul of Music City.”

Tunesmiths Lathan Warlick, Blake Hubbard, Zack Dyer and Jerrod Michael Ingram, after vying for top pinball score, agree that "Dazed and Confused" would be improved by a pedal-steel solo.
