Big Machine Label Group has added former Hot Chelle Rae frontman, singer/songwriter and musician Ryan Follese to its artist roster. Currently in the studio with producers Cameron Montgomery and Dann Huff, Follese is expected to release new music soon.

He is being managed by John Hamlin at Switched On Entertainment.

Ryan is the son of established songwriters Keith Follese (Tim McGraw’s “Something Like That”/Faith Hill’s “The Way You Love Me”) and Adrienne Follese (Martina McBride’s “I Love You”/Lady Antebellum’s “Long Gone”).

The 29 year-old’s foray into the country format follows years fronting Hot Chelle Rae and penning their multi-platinum No. 1 hit “Tonight Tonight.”
