Recently opened publishing company Liz Rose Music has signed singer/songwriter Emily Shackelton.
“I am thrilled to announce Emily’s signing,” says Scott Ponce, Liz Rose Music general manager/creative director. “We have been fans of her writing for a while and are excited to be working with her in our new venture.”
Shackelton moved to Nashville in 2007 and within a year she had a publishing deal. In the spring of 2008, American Idol winner David Cook performed her song “Dream Big” on the show, which sold over 250,000 copies on iTunes and made it inside the Top 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. She has had numerous cuts by major label artists worldwide.
Shackelton states, “I am proud to be a part of this new dynamic creative team and look forward to a life full of words and music.”
