Songwriter Joe Clemmons has signed a co-publishing deal with Big Machine Music and Ryan Hurd.

“Joe is a beloved writer in the community whose time has come!” shares Mike Molinar, BMM’s President. “His growth as a commercial songwriter has him poised to breakout and we consider ourselves lucky to be his publisher partners for this chapter of his career.”

“Joe is my one of my most trusted co-writers,” adds Hurd. “I truly believe he is about to breakout in a big way and I am so excited to continue supporting him as a publisher partner.”

An East Texas native, Clemmons began guitar lessons at 15 with John DeFoore, who also introduced him to songwriting. Now based in Nashville, Clemmons’ recent songwriting credits include “Goin’ Nowhere” (Hardy ft. Morgan Wallen), “Dark Night” (Warren Zeiders), “It Ain’t Austin” (George Birge) and “Rose Needs A Jack” (Gabby Barrett), among others. His co-written track “Wish For The World,” recorded by Hurd, received a 2020 AIMP Nashville Award nomination for Publisher’s Pick.

“Mike and his team have built an incredible culture of success at Big Machine Music and I’m honored to be a part of it, plus Ryan has always been one of my biggest champions making this a dream scenario,” says Clemmons. “I couldn’t ask for a better team.”
