Big Machine Music and 19 Publishing have entered into a joint music publishing venture. The agreement will allow Big Machine Music to co-publish and administer all rights for Big Machine Records/19 Recordings artists Nick Fradiani and Trent Harmon, and administer the associated rights for 19’s share.

“It’s so exciting to be a partner with 19 on these incredibly talented artists/songwriters,” said Mike Molinar, Big Machine Music VP/General Manager. “American Idol just scratched the surface of showing off both artists’ unlimited potential and we can’t wait for everyone to hear what is coming next!”

Fradiani’s debut album Hurricane released Friday (Aug. 5). Fradiani co-wrote 11 of the 12 tracks, including the pop & Hot AC hit “Get You Home,” his debut single “Beautiful Life,” and fan-favorite “All on You.”

Harmon recently premiered his debut single, “There’s A Girl” on FOX & Friends’ Summer Concert series. Shortly after his American Idol win, he co-wrote the song with Jimmy Robbins and Big Machine Music’s Laura Veltz.
