Cole Taylor has signed a joint publishing deal with RED Creative Group, Sony Music Publishing Nashville, and Anthem Entertainment.

The Cuthbert, Georgia, native has written No. 1 hits for Florida Georgia Line, (“Sippin’ On Fire”) and Luke Bryan and Karen Fairchild (“Home Alone Tonight”), and has also penned songs for Jason Aldean, Kenny Chesney, Cole Swindell, Jake Owen, Dylan Scott, Chase Rice, Chris Lane, Travis Denning, Jon Langston, Ryan Hurd, and many more.

“I have been a huge fan of Cole and his work for years now,” says RED Creative Group Owner Jeremy Stover. “I am thrilled to be able to work with him in an official capacity here at RED and can’t wait to see him continue to succeed and grow in his writing career.”

“Cole Taylor is a true country music craftsman and a rare talent,” adds Sony Music Publishing CEO Rusty Gaston. “We are so excited to welcome him into the SMP family and partner with RED Creative/Anthem to champion his work.”

“I’m so excited to start the next chapter of my career with this team,” Taylor shares.  “Jeremy and Taylor [Lamb] at RED are some of the best in the business and having Rusty, Anna [Weisband] and the Sony Publishing team on our side is more than I could ask for as I start my 9th year in Nashville.”
