Brayden Stewart has signed a worldwide publishing deal with Warner Chappell Music Nashville.
“The first time I saw Brayden play I was infatuated with his musicianship and energy on stage,” shares BJ Hill, SVP, A&R, WCM Nashville. “Then when I found out what an amazing songwriter he is, I instantly knew I wanted to be a part of his journey. I’m excited to champion his growth alongside our talented WCM team.”
Hailing from Scurry, Texas, Stewart began honing his craft at a young age, teaching himself guitar, bass, and drums. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of musical influences such as Metallica, Matchbox Twenty, Jason Isbell and Sturgill Simpson, he released his 2024 EP, Claire, and debut album Better Part of Me in 2025, with standout tracks like “Mexican Wind” and “Tell Me Why.” Stewart co-wrote a track with Pecos Hurley of Pecos & The Rooftops for the band’s upcoming album. Known for his high-energy live sets, he has toured with Blacktop Mojo and performed alongside Cole Barnhill and Kolby Cooper.
“I’m super excited to be a part of the Warner Chappell team,” adds Stewart. “I’m grateful to have found a home here with a bunch of other great creatives and I’m looking forward to collaborating with the teams more in the immediate future. This is an exciting new chapter in my life and I couldn’t feel more blessed.”
