This year’s Tin Pan South got even sweeter for artist-writer Katrina Elam. Elam took part in the ASCAP show recently at the Hard Rock Cafe as part of Tin Pan South. The show took place on April 3, where Elam performed alongside Chris DeStefano, JT Harding and Matt Jenkins.

The performance served as Elam’s announcement of her switch to ASCAP, as well as her recent signing to Words and Music Administration for worldwide representation of her catalog. Elam has had recent success with the ACM-nominated song “Easy,” recorded by Rascal Flatts and Natasha Bedingfield, and “Say Goodnight,” recorded by Eli Young band (co-written by Elam, Melissa Peirce and John Paul White).

Kim McCollum, owner of WAMA, said “we are thrilled to add the multi-talented Katrina Elam to our roster and we feel she will be a big part of our expansion into creative services.” Jessica Garey will be working with WAMA and Elam to provide creative content for music supervisors for film and television.
