“We are beyond proud to welcome Marcus Hummon to the roster of Salinger Songs! I’ve long been a fan of his masterful songwriting, and, through Salinger Theatrical, we’re excited to support his extraordinary work in theater and opera. Marcus is truly someone who can do it all.” says Chris Keup, CEO of Salinger Songs.
“I’m very excited to be writing for Chris and Salinger Songs,” adds Hummon. “I’ve long admired Chris’s own work in pop, rock, and theater, and love the eclectic approach to songwriting that he and the company embrace. Debby and I go back more than 20 years—she placed my very first hit song. She’s always had some of the best ears in the business.”
