Ava Hall has signed with Universal Music Publishing Nashville.

Originally from the Detroit area, Hall is a graduate of Belmont University’s Songwriting program and was the first student selected by Ashley Gorley for his inaugural songwriting apprenticeship program. Her self-penned debut single, “Georgia Heat,” was quickly added to Spotify’s Fresh Finds Country and Apple Music’s Country Risers playlists.

“Ava’s sparkle is felt the moment she walks into a room,” says Roxy King, Senior Director, A&R, UMPG Nashville. “That energy, coupled with her natural songwriting ability, powerhouse voice, and unstoppable work ethic, make her a force to be reckoned with. I can’t wait to see what lies ahead.”

“I’m so excited to sign with Universal Music Publishing. I truly feel a part of their family and culture,” Hall adds. “I am so blessed to work with such amazing people who nurture the craft of songwriting.”

Tomorrow, she will release her new single, “High Enough,” via Trenches/Republic Records.
