Owen Riegling has inked an exclusive global publishing deal with Universal Music Publishing Nashville.
After breaking out with his Platinum single “Old Dirt Roads,” Riegling signed with Universal Music Canada and has amassed 130 million global streams, back-to-back CCMA wins and completed a 103 date debut headline tour last year. This year, he is set to play Boots & Hearts, Country Thunder and support select dates on Luke Bryan’s summer tour.
“Sam [Nasr] and I have been fans of Owen from the moment Amanda Kingsland (Universal Music Canada) introduced us to his music,” says Cyndi Forman, SVP, A&R, UMPG Nashville. “Owen’s music captures the grit, heart and storytelling that country music was built on. We couldn’t be more excited to welcome him into the family!”
“I’m excited to be joining the UMPG family. Cyndi, Sam and the rest of the team have been champions of mine since my first visit,” adds Riegling. “I’m feeling very grateful to have such a powerhouse on my team. Here’s to my next chapter of music!”
Riegling is represented by The Feldman Agency/CAA for touring and managed by Cody (Kode) Roberts and Steve Astephen at The Familie.
