Songwriter and producer Cole Phillips has signed a worldwide publishing deal with Eclipse Music Publishing.

As a guitarist, Phillips has toured internationally as a sideman for artists including Gretchen Wilson, Colt Ford and Canaan Smith. His credits span country, pop and EDM, with collaborations with Clever, Colt Ford, Scotty Hastings and more. Phillips’ projects throughout his career have collectively generated hundreds of millions of streams.

“Cole is the kind of creative force we’re always looking for,” says Penny Gattis, Partner at Eclipse Music Group. “He understands songs at their core—how they’re written, how they’re produced, and how they translate to an audience.”

“He can take on any role in the writer room,” adds Courtney Crist, Vice President of Eclipse Publishing. “Not only is he an incredible talent, but he’s also the kind of person everyone wants to be around. We’re thrilled to welcome him to the Eclipse Music Group family.”

“I’m grateful to join the Eclipse family,” says Phillips. “Their reputation for championing writers and building careers is second to none, and I’m excited to work with such an amazing publishing team. Big thanks to Penny, Courtney, Anna [Thiel], and Kurt [Locher] for their belief in me and for welcoming me so fully into the fold.”
