11/9/23

Sony Music Pubishing is on a hot streak this week, winning top honors across Nashville’s ASCAP, SESAC and BMI awards earlier this week, as well as the 57th Annual CMA Awards on 11/8.

The pubco earned Publisher of the Year at both ASCAP’s Country Music Awards and SESAC’s Nashville Music Awards, marking the first time since 2016 that the company won both awards in the same year.

“Congratulations to all Sony Music Publishing’s songwriter honorees – we are grateful to support you and your incredible songs. I also want to thank our amazing team for continuing to go above and beyond for SMP’s songwriters,” said SMP Nashville CEO Rusty Gaston.

Additionally, Ashley Gorley was named ASCAP’s Songwriter of the Year for the tenth time and won Song of the Year for his contributions on Morgan Wallen’s “You Proof.” Charlie Handsome also earned recognition at BMI’s Country Awards for his work on “You Proof,” taking home Song of the Year.

At SESAC’s Nashville Music Awards, Jon Nite won Songwriter of the Year for Tyler Hubbard’s “Dancin’ in the Country,” and Song of the Year went to Josh Hoge for his contributions on Kane Brown & Katelyn Brown’s “Thank God.”

Meanwhile, Lainey Wilson had a big night at the CMAs with wins in five categories, setting a new one-year record for a female artist. She also won Musical event of the Year and Music Video of the Year alongside HARDY.
