Emily Carignan Joins SmackSongs Publishing Team

November 7, 2022/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Emily Carignan

Emily Carignan has joined the SmackSongs Publishing team as Catalog Manager.

In her new position, Carignan will be responsible for organizing the catalog, managing royalties and licensing, and handling administrative duties for the publishing team at large. She will report to Vice President of Publishing Lee Krabel.

A Tyngsboro, Massachusetts native, Carignan moved to Nashville to attend Belmont University three years ago. Currently in her junior year at Belmont, she has been an intern at Smack for the last year and will now work full-time for the company while finishing her degree.  

“When Emily first started as an intern, she made herself so valuable to the team that we had to figure out a way to keep her at Smack,” says Krabel. “We are excited to bring her on the team as catalog manager and watch her grow!”

“I could not be more thrilled to officially join the SmackSongs team,” says Carignan. “This team has been beyond welcoming to me and I can’t thank them enough for giving me this incredible opportunity.”

Carignan can be reached at emily@smacksongs.com.
