Big Yellow Dog Music has signed established songwriter Trent Tomlinson.

With a career spanning over two decades, Tomlinson has penned hits including No. 1 single “Damn Strait” by Scotty McCreery and RIAA Black Diamond-Certified track “In Case You Didn’t Know” by Brett Young, which earned a BMI Song of the Year award. His songwriting work has garnered more than three billion streams across platforms.

As a solo artist, Tomlinson has made his mark in the top 40 of the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart with singles like “One Wing In The Fire,” “She Just Might Have Her Radio On” and “Drunker Than Me,” and has become an in-demand collaborator for Lainey Wilson, George Strait, Chris Young, Sara Evans and more.

“Trent Tomlinson is a world-class songwriter who has honed his craft through dedication and hard work,” says Carla Wallace, Co-Founder, Big Yellow Dog Music. “I’m thrilled to work with him and proud to welcome him to the Big Yellow Dog Music family.”

“What an honor and privilege to be a part of such an iconic company as Big Yellow Dog,” shares Tomlinson. “From the very first meeting, I knew it’s where I wanted and needed to be. The ownership and staff shared my same passion for the hustle, and the camaraderie was second to none of any place I had ever been professionally. Thank you, Carla and Kerry.”
