Singer-songwriter Ricky Manning has inked a publishing deal with Electric Feel Publishing and Plush/Push Play Publishing.

“Signing with Electric Feel/Push Play Publishing feels like coming home” shares Manning. “I truly believe I have finally found a group of people that I believe in just as much as they believe in me.

Nashville-based Manning has had cuts with Wyatt Flores, Boy In Space, LEW, Jamie Miller, Willow Avalon, Matt Schuster, Knox, Thomas Day, Maddie Zahm, and Johnny Orlando. He also co-penned Alexander Stewart’s breakout hit “blame’s on me,” which charted on Spotify’s Viral 50, featured on Pop Rising, and has garnered 135 million streams.

Manning co-writes with a variety of hit songwriters and artists, including Steph Jones, Sasha Sloan, Mike Robinson, Ross Copperman, Laura Veltz, Blake Pendergrass, Whakaio Taahi, King Henry, PJ Harding, Daniel Ross, Riley Biederer, Jordan Minton, Johnny Simpson, Sam Fischer, Dasha, Ashley Cooke, Ne-Yo, James Bay, Ben Kessler, Very Gently, MNEK, Jason Mraz, NEIKED, Loud Luxury and Sadie Jean, among others.

As an artist, Manning is currently working on his debut project. His solo-penned “Someone Else & Jesus” has garnered over 5 million views across platforms and more than 4 million streams. He released a new version of the tune with Dasha last Friday (Dec. 5).

“The first time I met Ricky, I knew he was special,” says Chandler Nicole Sherrill, Senior Director Creative, Electric Feel. “Ricky Manning is a truly exceptional talent, and we couldn’t be more excited to officially welcome him to the Electric Feel Publishing family alongside Push Play Publishing. His songwriting, artistry, and work ethic are rare, and with one of the most exciting voices in music today, we’re thrilled to support him as he continues to grow and create meaningful, impactful music.”

“PushPlay Publishing is thrilled to welcome Ricky Manning, one of the most exceptional singer-songwriters of his generation—exceptional because he is so deeply in touch with his own humanity and unafraid to pour it into his music,” shares Ethan Curtis, Founder, PushPlay. “A true puppeteer of emotion, Ricky pulls on the heartstrings of every listener with lyrics that feel lifted straight from their own minds and melodies that are nothing short of hypnotizing.”

“Ricky is an incredible and rare talent, both as a songwriter and artist,” adds Aton Ben-Horin, CEO, Plush Management. “The combination of his special vocal tone and compelling storytelling is infectious, and the authenticity shines through his music. We could not be more excited to join him on this next chapter of his journey!”
