Brinley Addington has renewed his deal with Spirit Music Nashville. Addington has had songs recorded by artists Ryan Hurd, Darius Rucker, Chris Janson, Brantley Gilbert, Parmalee, Tyler Farr, Kameron Marlowe and more. He recently celebrated his first #1 single with Ryan Hurd and Maren Morris’ RIAA certified 2x Platinum, GRAMMY and CMA nominated hit “Chasing After You.” Addington was also named one of Spotify’s Hot Country Standout Songwriters of the Year for 2021.
“Spirit Music is thrilled and honored to partner with Brinley Addington as he continues to build on an impressive track record of songwriting successes!” said Frank Rogers. “The next few years are going to be a fun ride with Brinley!”
“I’m excited to start this new chapter with the incredible group of people at Spirit Music Nashville,” said Brinley Addington. “Spirit has been a great partner and publishing home for me, and I look forward to building on the strong foundation we’ve created these last four years. Big thanks to Frank, Kara, Kennedy, and the whole team for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to keep working toward the goals we’ve set.”
The Kingsport, TN native found his passion for country music at age three while visiting the Grand Ole Opry. He’s pursued a career in it ever since, moving to Nashville in 2008 to attend Belmont University before signing his first publishing deal a year after graduation. Influenced by church hymns and classic country, he has built his sound to reflect tradition while embracing the best attributes of modern country music. Brinley purrsued a career as a solo country artist before deciding to switch gears and focus on what he loves most – writing great country songs.
