Artist/songwriter Nick Wells has signed a publishing deal with Nashville-based Zavitson Music Group. The Vanderbilt University graduate currently resides in Los Angeles, where he has written songs with will.i.am, Danny Mercer, Dante Jones, Jonathan Perkins, Kam Parker, and Jackson Morgan. His songs have been recorded by Khalil and Marcus Canty.
“Our goal at ZMG is to establish a creative environment that doesn’t recognize musical boundaries,” said ZMG’s VP of Creative/A&R Eric Hurt. “Our offices are here in Nashville, and we are firmly rooted in Country music, but our creative juices flow to all other genres as well. Adding Nick to the roster is yet another great step towards that goal.”
