Singer-songwriter and producer Brock Phillips has signed with Big Loud Records and Local Hay Records, led by the Nashville-based Records’ team, Local Hay’s Scott Cooke and hitmaker Dallas Smith. To celebrate the signing, Phillips has released his new track “Rich Man.”

“I’m beyond excited to be joining the team at Big Loud and Local Hay,” shares Phillips. ”Working with Scott Cooke, and watching the career Dallas Smith has built as a Canadian artist in Nashville, has been a huge inspiration for me. ‘Rich Man’ is just the beginning. I can’t wait for everyone to hear what else we’ve been working on.”

“Brock Phillips is the kind of artist who checks every box you can’t teach — an undeniable, powerhouse voice paired with a pen that knows exactly where to land,” says Sara Knabe, SVP of A&R, Big Loud Records. “That combination creates a dynamic that feels fresh in today’s landscape, but built for longevity. We’re proud to welcome him to Big Loud and get to work.”

“The moment I heard Brock’s voice I knew he was something special,” adds Cooke, President of Local Hay Records. “His work ethic and raw talent are second to none, we are so excited and proud to be part of this journey with him.”

After relocating to Nashville in 2024, his debut single “Something Else” was named one of Holler‘s “Best New Country Songs.” Phillips attended Berklee College of Music, as well as played weekly shows at clubs and bars across Vancouver. He also inked a publishing deal with Big Loud Publishing and Local Hay last year. Phillips will play the Calgary Stampede on July 5 on the Nashville North stage.
