Still Working Music and BMG Chrysalis Nashville have partnered to sign 14-year-old singer-songwriter Alana Springsteen to a worldwide publishing agreement. She has been making trips to Nashville since she was ten, and she and her family have recently relocated to Nashville from Virginia Beach, Virginia to pursue her music career.
“Alana’s grace, skill, and ‘sky-is-the-limit’ potential made this signing one of the easiest decisions we’ve made at Still Working,” said Still Working Pres. Alex Orbison. “Her room presence and maturity are way beyond her young years—nothing but great things ahead. Welcome Alana!”
“Natural born songwriters are not as common in town as one might think, Alana is one,” added BMG Chrysalis EVP, Kos Weaver. “I am thrilled that we get to work alongside our friends at Still Working with this promising writer/artist.”
Still Working Music currently represents writers Tommy Lee James, Terry McBride, Matt Nolen, Red Bow’s Chase Bryant, Ryan Lafferty, Skip Black and Derrick Southerland, and is proud to partner with BMG Chrysalis.

Lockwood said, “Being able to write a song and have people be moved by it in some way is just the best feeling ever. I love being able to do what I do with friends and people who believe in me.”
Old Gringo President Chris Hunter commented, “It is such a pleasure to be able to work with a kid like Zach. He’s extremely talented as a writer and a player with a strong work ethic and desire to succeed. Music is his being and he continues to impress us on a daily basis.”
Dis Keef President Kenneth Wright added, “Zach is a good guy and always brings something to the table. That counts with us.”
