New York, NY (Top40 Charts) RECORDS Nashville, the newly announced
Music City division of Barry Weiss' RECORDS, a joint venture with Sony
Music Entertainment, has announced signing breakthrough singer/songwriter Chase
Martin to the label. The spirited and sincere 22-year-old Charleston, South Carolina native found herself in Nashville after graduating from high school a year early with a 5.0 GPA and a perfect score on the ACT. The accomplished singer/songwriter has been compared to artists like
Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift, thanks to her powerhouse pop and blues tinged country voice, humble attitude and an innate ability to connect her music and lyrics with a younger generation thirsty for a new country superstar. Through the years, she has played alongside the likes of
Kelsea Ballerini and
Morgan Wallen, sang on the stages of venues such as The Bluebird Café and The Listening Room and written with songwriting giants Jimmy Robbins, Rebecca Lynn Howard, Rascal Flatts' Joe Don
Rooney and more.
"I've thought Chase was a star since the day I met her," says Ash Bowers, President, RECORDS Nashville. "She's so talented and hardworking. Considering all she's achieved on her own, I can't wait to see what we can accomplish together with her great music."
In 2019,
Martin also joined the Wide Open
Music management family, home to country music hit makers Matt Stell, Jimmie Allen, and Chris Bandi. Martin's hard work paired with her undeniable talent and her irresistible personality snagged her a spot on the RECORDS Nashville label, an imprint of Sony Music. As announced exclusively via Tik Tok last night, Martin's brand new single, "Levi Denim," written by Matt Stell,
Allison Veltz Cruz, and Abby Anderson, and produced by Ash Bowers, will be available on October 9 on all streaming platforms, marking the first single release on RECORDS Nashville.
