Klare Essad has signed an exclusive publishing agreement with Riser House Publishing.

Essad got her start in the Nashville music industry by working in the legal sphere for various record labels. With a longtime passion for songwriting, she became involved with Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI) where she was introduced to artist Madeline Edwards. This led to them to collaborate and create “Hold My Horses,” the focus track on Edwards’ debut album Crashlanded.

“We are very pumped to welcome Klare Essad to the Riser House family,” says Kirby Mathews, Riser House Director of Publishing & A&R. “Klare’s talent and dedication are unmatched, and we are excited to officially add her to our roster. She brings strong and creative ideas and lyrics into the room, and it is an honor to work alongside her!”

“I’m thrilled to be working with Riser House,” says Essad. “Kirby, Brandon [Perdue], Allison [Pilotti] and the entire Riser House family have shown me so much support and I’m excited to see what we can accomplish together!”
