Hit songwriter and producer Matt McGinn has signed a publishing deal with Boom Music Group in partnership with Cinq Music Group.

With many cuts in multiple genres, McGinn has celebrated nine No. 1 songs. Chart-toppers co-written by McGinn include “7500 OBO” recorded by Tim McGraw, as well as several hits recorded by Kane Brown, such as “Like I Love Country Music,” “Homesick,” “One Thing Right” and “Heaven,” the latter of which was the first song to win Song of the Year at all three country awards for ASCAP, BMI and SESAC in 2018. He was named Songwriter of the Year at the SESAC Nashville Music Awards in 2018 and again in 2020.

McGinn currently has a top 3 hit with Brown’s latest, “Bury Me In Georgia” and recently celebrated a 2-week No. 1 at Active Rock radio with Staind’s “Lowest In Me.” Additionally, he co-wrote all ten songs on Staind’s upcoming album, due out in September.

“I used to listen to Matt’s demos on Soundcloud before I even moved to Nashville,” says Shaina Botwin, Sr. Director, A&R at Boom Music Group. “He’s a brilliant songwriter and I’m very excited to partner with him and Cinq for the next chapter of his career!”

“I am honored to join the Boom and Cinq rosters alongside some of my favorite songwriters in Nashville,” says McGinn. “Joe Fisher’s veteran experience and his pragmatic business approach, coupled with Shaina Botwin’s inability to be anything but a badass made this a decision hard for even me to overthink… if only second verses were this easy.”
