Songwriter/artist/producer Aaron Gillespie has signed with Jonas Group Publishing.

As a member of the Grammy-nominated rock band Underoath, Gillespie’s success not only led to the founding of his band The Almost, which enjoyed a top 10 alternative radio single, but also paved the way for Gillespie to further hone his skills as a songwriter and producer after relocating to Nashville.

Gillespie co-wrote and performed on “Demon or Ghost” with Mitchell Tenpenny, penned “Hereditary” with Cassadee Pope, and produced and co-wrote “Long Live Country Music” and “Heaven Is A Honky Tonk” with Raelynn, along with many others. His production works extend to major record labels as well, including Big Loud and Big Machine Label Group.

“Aaron brings a rare combination of authenticity, passion, and creative range that inspires everyone in the room,” says Jonas Group Publishing President Leslie T. DiPiero. “From rock stages around the world to intimate songwriter circles in Nashville, he’s done it all – and he does it with heart. We’re honored to be part of his next chapter.”

“I’m excited and honored to be a part of the family at Jonas,” says Gillespie. “It feels like an actual family, and the attention to detail they have – and the honesty about what you’re making – is unparalleled. Leslie DiPiero and team have truly made me believe in myself as a writer and producer, and I’m so ready to see where this all takes us.”
