Creative Nation has announced the addition of Emily Furman to their team as Sr. Director, Creative. In her new role, Furman will help lead the publishing team, sign new talent, and develop the current roster of songwriters and artists.

At age 17, Furman moved to Nashville to attend Belmont University. She graduated in May of 2009 with a BBA in Music Business and in July of 2009, was hired at Carnival Music where she spent over eleven years working in publishing and artist development.

“Emily’s 11 years of experience at a respected independent publishing company, and her passion for great songs and songwriters, make her a perfect fit for Creative Nation. We are excited to add her fresh perspective to our publishing team,” Co-Founder and CEO, Beth Laird, says.

“Creative Nation operates with a strong team culture and a commitment to quality and success in a way that’s unique and forward-thinking. I’m grateful for Beth and Luke [Laird]‘s belief in me and to be a part of what they’re doing in the Nashville music community and beyond,” Furman says.
