Jill Pavel‘s Heart Songs Records has rebranded to Heart Songs Music Group (HSMG). Along with the new name, the entity has unveiled new partnerships with Devon O’Day and Liam Hickey, and added licensing for songwriting, publishing and sync, as well as launched its management roster.

Alongside Hickey, Heart Songs will expand the label’s management and artist development platform. Additionally, O’Day, VP and acclaimed Nashville songwriter and broadcaster, will head up the songwriting, publishing, and sync licensing division.

The Nashville-based company’s artist roster features talented artists from multiple genres of music, including Cory Singer, The Highway Women, Bailey James, Drew Haley, and Karine Hannah. The HSMG publishing division, Get Buzzed Music, includes Gabrielle Metz, Brenda Cay, Tony Luke Jr., and J4 on its expanding roster.

HSMG has also recently partnered with The Sound Mind Network, founded by multi- Grammy award-winning producer Joe Nicolo and celebrity chef Tony Luke Jr. HSMG will serve as distributor for the Sound Mind Network artist roster, which includes The Bacon Brothers, Kathy Sledge, Wyclef Jean, G. Love & Special Sauce, Taj Mahal, Sophie B. Hawkins, and more.

Pavel founded Heart Songs Records in 2014 in Central New Jersey. The label has grown through artist development, major label digital distribution and label acquisition. She has been building a network in the music industry, including a music magazine, record label Victory Music Buzz, and all-female collaborative “Be a Highway Woman,” featured in Forbes Magazine.
