Singer-songwriter Stephen Wilson Jr. has signed with River House Artists for management and UTA for representation.
An accomplished songwriter and rising artist, Wilson Jr. has secured cuts with Caitlyn Smith and Old Dominion, Brothers Osborne and Tim McGraw, among others. The Indiana native and BMG Nashville songwriter was recently featured on the single “Made For This” in collaboration with his wife Leigh Nash (Sixpence None The Richer). Wilson Jr. also released two singles in 2020, including “Year To Be Young 1994” and “The Beginning.”
“I have been following Stephen and his incredible songwriting and artistry for some time,” shares Alicia Jones, manager, River House Artists. “He is truly one of the most talented people I’ve ever met and to get the chance to be part of his career is a dream come true.”
“We are beyond excited to get to work with such a prolific writer and artist. I just happened to be watching CMT one afternoon and ‘Year to Be Young 1994’ was on their countdown. I immediately started searching to find out more,” adds Lance Roberts, agent, Nashville Music Leadership, UTA. “Fast forward 12 months and here we are joining the remarkable team he’s built with BMG and River House.”
In 2020, Wilson Jr. served as a co-writer on the title track for Trace Adkins’ EP Ain’t That Kinda Cowboy. Recently in the studio with producer Ben West, Wilson Jr. plans to release new music by the end of the year and will join Brothers Osborne on a European tour in 2022.
“I’m so happy to have found a management home at River House as well as adding an agency like UTA to be part of my team. As a former boxer and fan of the sport, I understand the importance of having the right people in my corner,” shares Wilson Jr. “I am thrilled and honored to be part of the River House and UTA organizations who both bring a unique and exciting set of talents.”
