Ryan Kohn has inked a global publishing deal with Concord Music Publishing, in partnership with John Dennis‘ InDent Music, the publishing arm of Dennis Entertainment. The deal includes Kohn’s full catalog and future works.

“It has been my dream for many years to become a professional songwriter, and signing with a team who is so beloved and respected in this industry is such a dream come true,” says Kohn. “This team has been so warm and welcoming to me, especially my biggest champions, Melissa Spillman and John Dennis. There is no one I’d rather partner with in this ever-changing industry, I am so excited to see what lies ahead for all of us.”

The producer and songwriter first moved to Music City to study music business at Belmont University. Since graduating in 2022, Kohn has worked with Erin Kirby, Cole Goodwin, Grace Tyler, Callista Clark, Ashley Anne, Callie Prince, Randall Fowler, Stanton Langley, Emmy Moyen and more.

Kohn has also released a number of singles as an artist, including “The Man She Used to Know,” “Headed Nowhere” and “Lifetime, Lover.” His EP November Skies was released in 2021 and portrayed a vulnerable picture of post-college graduation life. This past April, he performed at Key West Songwriters Festival.

“Ryan is already so well-connected in our music community, it was easy to see the path of success in front of him,” adds Melissa Spillman, VP of A&R at Concord Music Publishing in Nashville. “To find someone who is so loved and respected among writers, artists and executives alike is a rare thing! He’s a joy to work with, and his passion for music is infectious. I’m thrilled to be on his team!”
