Kevin Lane has joined Kobalt Music Publishing as Director, Creative. In his new role, Lane will be responsible for pitching songs, setting up co-writes, developing and signing talent.

Lane spent the last seven years at BMG, functioning as a Creative Manager at BMG Chrysalis, and Creative Director at BMG, The New Music Company. Lane worked with the following catalogs while at BMG: Hillary Lindsey, Gordie Sampson, Tony Lane, and Will Hoge.
