The Pen Behind the Hits

You might not know Zach Kale's face, but if you listen to country radio, you know his words. The songwriter/producer has penned massive tracks for artists like Florida Georgia Line, Gabby Barrett, and Ella Langley.

This week, he officially signed a worldwide publishing deal with Sea Gayle Music, one of Nashville's most prestigious independent publishers.

Why It's a Big Deal

Sea Gayle (co-founded by Brad Paisley) has a reputation for nurturing top-tier talent. For Kale, this move signals a shift towards even bigger projects. "Zach is a triple threat," said Sea Gayle execs. "He writes, he produces, and he understands the modern country landscape better than anyone."

What's Next?

Kale is currently working on the sophomore album for several breakout stars. With the backing of Sea Gayle, expect his name to appear in the liner notes of your next favorite truck-driving anthem.
