Young Guns Publishing has signed singer/songwriter Katie Garfield to its roster.

“Ever since I first started writing with the talented Young Guns writers almost three years ago, I’ve known that Young Guns is the place for me. I feel right at home with their wonderful team and I’m so excited for my future there,” Garfield said.

“Katie brings a fresh and unique perspective to the Young Guns roster. We are very excited to have this multi-talented singer/songwriter join our company,“ said Cliff Downs, President of Young Guns Publishing.

After moving to Los Angeles at 18, she started working with songwriters and producers such as David Pack and Scott Gordon. Now 23, she has signed her first publishing deal and has been writing songs for TV and film opportunities.

Garfield is also an accomplished actor, having had guest starring roles in television shows such as The Vampire Diaries, Sleepy Hollow, One Tree Hill and Nashville.

This fall she will be seen in Nate Parker’s Nat Turner biopic The Birth of a Nation as Catherine Turner. The film won the Grand Jury and Audience Awards at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival and is set to premiere nationwide on Oct. 7.
