Emily Reid, a Belmont University graduate and recent transplant from Toronto, Canada, has signed an exclusive publishing deal with BMG. Reid is managed by Rob Baker and Mark Noel of Longshot Management. Rob Beckham and Morgan Kenney of WME complete the team.
“To use Emily’s favorite adjective, we think she’s ‘outrageous’ and look forward to walking alongside her on this musical journey. She brings big vocal talent, fresh perspective, killer songs and an upbeat outlook and work ethic that is impossible to ignore,” says BMG’s Sara Knabe.
“We couldn’t be more excited to have Emily join the Longshot family. Emily is an exceptional talent and an even better human being – we can’t wait for the world to find out what we already know,” says Longshot’s Baker.
WME Nashville co-head Beckham adds, “Emily brings a unique sound to our country roster. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she’s surrounded by a fantastic team of industry executives and we expect her to accomplish great things.”
Reid is a CCMA Discovery Finalist who has opened for artists including Dierks Bentley and Charlie Worsham. She cowrote “Two in a Million” which was the series finale duet for Disney’s Austin & Ally. Reid was also a featured artist for the Canadian clothing company, Roots.
