Ben Goldsmith, the former creative manager at BMG Chrysalis, has signed a publishing deal with BMG and Big Deal Music. Goldsmith is a co-writer on Jerrod Niemann’s current single, “Blue Bandana.”

“Ben Goldsmith is one of the hardest-working songwriters I know. I’m excited to have him on this side of our BMG publishing family. Along with his obvious talent, Ben brings an excitement for songwriting that is contagious. You’ll be hearing more from him very soon,” says BMG’s Sara Knabe.

“Ben brings a full toolkit… impressive lyrics, musicianship and track building. He is also one of the most positive guys we have ever met. We are excited to have Ben in the Big Deal family and to partner with BMG for him,” says Big Deal Music’s Dale Bobo.

Goldsmith participated in ASCAP’s GPS program for new songwriters. His hometown is Lexington, Virginia, and he is a graduate of The University Of Miami.
