Songwriter/producer Ashley Gorley has teamed up with industry execs John Dennis and Charly Salvatore to sign Avenue Beat to an exclusive publishing deal with their respective companies, Tape Room Music and Dennis Entertainment. The joint-venture marks the trio’s first publishing deal and is the first partnership between Tape Room Music and Dennis Entertainment.

“Blain, Kelly, and I couldn’t be more excited to be working with Avenue Beat. They are not only amazing vocalists and producers with their own sound, but they are first and foremost songwriters. Their songs are full of fresh ideas and melodies with an honest perspective. We are pumped to have them as part of the Tape Room family!” said Tape Room CEO Gorley.

The trio of childhood friends from Illinois includes Savana Santos, Sam Backoff and Sami Bearden. In 2016, the group moved to Nashville and have spent the past three years writing and crafting music.

“Charly and I are thrilled to work with such an immensely talented group of people. We wanted to surround Avenue Beat with a team that could share our vision and help take them to the next level both creatively and musically. We aimed high and thankfully Ashley and his team recognized how special Avenue Beat is. Ashley, Blain, and Kelly have been amazing to work with,” remarked Dennis, owner of Dennis Entertainment.

Signed to Creative Artists Agency (CAA), Avenue Beat will head out on the road with Mason Ramsey as direct support on his 2019 How’s Your Girl & How’s Your Family spring tour.
