Blue Chair/Warner/WEA's Kenny Chesney has signed an exclusive global publishing agreement with Universal Music Publishing Group, reuniting him with former Sony/ATV Nashville Pres./CEO Troy Tomlinson, who transitioned to UMPG as Chairman/CEO last year (CAT 6/17/19). "Troy Tomlinson has been part of my creative life since I was a young dreamer hoping to capture some life in songs," shares Chesney. "To be reunited with him, as well as to work with Jody Gerson and the entire team at Universal Music Publishing inspires me to keep reaching for those same dreams, seeking truly special songs as a writer and an artist blessed to bring other people's songs to the world, too."
