Slater Nalley Inks With Warner Music Nashville/Warner Records

October 17, 2025/by Lauryn Sink

Slater Nalley has signed a record deal with Warner Music Nashville/Warner Records in partnership with 19 Entertainment, a part of Sony Pictures Television. In celebration of the announcement, Nalley has released his debut single, “Foolish Pride.”

“I’m incredibly excited to release this special song. I’ve performed it for years, and after its debut on American Idol, I knew I had to share it with the world,” Nalley shares. “This song delves into self-reflection and the realization that sometimes change is necessary. I’m so grateful to everyone who helped bring this song to life. In addition, I am overjoyed to announce that I have officially signed a record deal with Warner Music. Their team and staff genuinely care about the power of music and truly believe in me. I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us! Thank you to all who made this possible.”

Nalley finished in the top five contestants of American Idol earlier this year, performing alongside Carrie Underwood and Cody Johnson for a version of their chart-topping duet “I’m Gonna Love You.”

Drawing from artists like Jason Isbell, Tyler Childers, Sturgill Simpson, and Chris Stapleton, the Georgia native began playing guitar and piano at the age of 14. When his high school English teacher experienced the loss of her son, Nalley wrote “Traces of You,” the song that initially caught the attention of the American Idol.
