RED Creative Group, the Nashville-based independent music publishing and artist development company founded by Jeremy Stover, has appointed Kaileen Smith as its new Director of A&R, effective immediately. In her new role at RED, Smith will oversee publishing operations, support the company’s roster of writers and artists and help drive continued creative growth across all facets of the business.

“Kaileen’s experience in both publishing and promotion gives her a rare perspective that will strengthen our creative team. She has a deep understanding of creatives’ needs and a wide understanding of how to create opportunities for success,” says Stover.

“I couldn’t be more excited to join Jeremy Stover and John Cantu at RED Creative Group,” adds Smith. “I’m thankful for Jeremy’s belief in me, and honored to get to work with the amazing roster he has built.”

Smith joins RED from her most recent role as Creative Manager at Boom Music Group. Before that, she made stops at UMG Nashville and Sony Music Nashville, contributing to multiple No. 1 singles from artists including Jordan Davis, Sam Hunt, Parker McCollum and Ryan Hurd.
