Morgan Wade has signed an exclusive, worldwide publishing agreement with Universal Music Publishing Nashville.

Wade’s first full-length album, Reckless, was released earlier this year and showcases her songwriting talent on all 10 tracks. Her current single, “Wilder Days,” is currently at country and Americana radio, and recently earned her the title of SiriusXM’s “Highway Find.” Wade will join Ashley McBryde and Jason Isbell on the road this summer, along with playing numerous festivals including Pilgrimage Music Fest and Rock the South.

“Morgan has a rare mix of authenticity and grit, accompanied with a fresh sound and pop sensibility that blew my mind the first time I heard her music,” says Director A&R, Universal Music Publishing Nashville Zach Lund. “She truly has no ceiling and the UMPG team is beyond grateful for the opportunity to work with her and join the ride.”

“It feels great to have a songwriting home with so many other artists and writers I admire,” shares Wade. “Zach and his team truly understand what I’m about, and I feel very supported by UMPG. I’m thrilled to see where we go from here.”
