Rising country singer-songwriter Matt Schuster has added to his team, signing with WME for global booking representation and Extended Play for management.
Schuster, an Illinois native, moved to Nashville less than a year ago and has since grown an impressive fanbase. Averaging 10 million monthly streams, four of Schuster’s songs have landed on the Spotify Country Global Top 200 Chart and garnered over 75 million streams.
“When I first heard Matt’s music, I knew that I needed to work with him, and meeting him solidified that even more,” shares Morgan Kenney, WME Agent. “He’s an incredibly talented artist with a heart of gold. I consider it an honor to be able to book his tour so others can see what I see. Matt Schuster is a name for those to remember.”
“It’s a great privilege for me to learn from and work alongside Morgan, Braeden [Rountree], Nate [Towne] and Aaron [Tannenbaum],” shares Eric Parker, Extended Play Founder & CEO. “With their guidance, I believe Matt is poised to take a big step forward in his career.”
Schuster, who also recently signed a publishing deal with UMPG, just celebrated his first major label cut with Bailey Zimmerman recording “Chase Her” for his Religiously. The Album.
“I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to work with such an amazing team,” says Schuster. “Their passion for music is contagious and I’m excited to see them play a pivotal role in bringing my live shows to life.”
Schuster will take CMA Fest‘s Maui Jim Reverb Stage on June 9 before appearing at various fairs and festivals throughout the summer.
