Daywind Music Publishing has signed songwriter Hunter Leath to its roster of writers.

Inspired by a vast variety of music, Leath began his songwriting career at a young age in the suburbs of Memphis. He dedicated himself to studying the writing styles of artists like Don Henley, Phil Vassar, Mac McAnally, and Billy Joel in order to develop a style that blends pop, country, and acoustic music. With this goal in mind, Hunter’s primary focus will be creating songs that will open doors within mainstream country, while also expanding Daywind Music’s reach within Christian music.

“We couldn’t be more thrilled to have Hunter joining our Daywind family,” said Daywind Music Publishing Creative Director Joe Dan Cornet. “He has an innate ability to paint a picture with words and attach an infectious melody to a song. I look forward to sharing much success with Hunter in the future.”

“I could not be more excited to work with Joe Dan Cornett and the rest of the team at Daywind!” said Leath about the new association. “As a songwriter, having a publisher who is 100% in your corner means everything, and that’s exactly what I found there.”
