Successful business manager Becky Harris, hit songwriter Anthony Smith (“Tomorrow”) and RCA recording artist Chris Young have launched Artist Concepts, a production and artist development company.

All three partners will seek out top new talent and Smith will spearhead the search for music. Smith and Young will co-produce the artists, and Harris will oversee bookkeeping and business management.

Artist Concepts’ first signing is singer-songwriter Brinley Addington. The Belmont alum also inked a publishing agreement with Razor & Tie, where Nashville operations are led by Lisa Johnson. He is set to go into the studio next month.

Addington is opening shows for Young, and has been added to this fall’s Blake Shelton & Friends Cruise. Check out video clips and music at www.brinleyaddington.com.

Smith is currently accepting song submissions for the project at artistconcepts@yahoo.com.
