Rising country music artist Scout Speer has just signed a worldwide publishing deal with Sony Music Publishing Nashville, in collaboration with country music hitmaker Dan Isbell.
This marks a major milestone in Scout�s rapidly growing career, which has been defined by her unique blend of modern country and vivid storytelling influenced by her Tennessee roots.
Scout�s singles �Strangers,� �Against Me,� and �That�d Be Crazy� have gained significant attention, helping her build a dedicated fan base. With over 5 million streams and a self-titled EP under her belt, she�s quickly becoming one of Nashville�s most promising new voices.
In addition to her music, Scout has sold out two shows in Nashville and made a festival appearance. Fans can expect even more from her, with a full-length album slated for release later in 2026.
Scout shared her excitement about the new partnership, saying, “I�m incredibly grateful to be partnering with Sony Music Publishing and Dan Isbell as I take this next step in my career. It�s an honor to work with people who believe so deeply in my music and my future as a writer.”
Dan Isbell, who will work closely with Scout, expressed his enthusiasm about collaborating with her: �I�m thrilled to work with Scout. She�s a killer vocalist with a sound that balances heartfelt melancholy and an upbeat spirit that really comes alive on stage.”
Tom Luteran, VP of Creative A&R at Sony Music Publishing Nashville, praised Scout�s natural storytelling ability and unique voice, noting, “When Dan introduced me to Scout, I immediately saw what he did�an unmistakable voice and a natural storytelling ability that captures audiences.”
Scout�s discipline, which stems from her collegiate soccer background, also stood out. Luteran added, “She has a team-first mindset and a clear understanding of what it takes to succeed, and we�re proud to partner with Dan to support her career.”
