NASHVILLE, TENN. – Announced today, Nashville-based hit songwriter and producer Mark Holman has inked a new publishing deal with Big Loud Publishing / ERN’s Cadillac Music. Holman has penned songs for chart-topping hitmakers like Morgan Wallen, Post Malone, Blake Shelton and many more.
“Big Loud has believed in me from the jump and I’m thankful to keep growing with them,” shares Holman. “Adding Cadillac to the mix just takes it to another level. I have a ton of respect for Ern — as a writer, as an artist and as a visionary — and I’m looking forward to what we can create.”
“I have enjoyed working with Mark throughout the years. We always have a great time in the room, and he is such a joy to work with,” ERN’s Cadillac Music Founder / CEO ERNEST adds. “He has been a weapon in town for a few years, and we have obviously already made a little magic together with ‘Flower Shops.’ I look forward to continuing to grow together as songwriters and producers. I’m thankful he wanted to be a part of the Cadillac crew as much as I wanted him to be.”
The Illinois native has spent over a decade investing in Music City’s creative community – writing Jordan Davis’ recent No. 1 single “I Ain’t Sayin,” Cole Swindell’s “Single Saturday Night,” smashes like Morgan Wallen’s “Don’t Think Jesus,” ERNEST’s “Flower Shops,” Florida Georgia Line’s “Simple” and more. Known for his ability to create fresh melodies with radio-ready hooks, Holman continues to be a driving creative force behind some of country music’s most resonant and successful songs.
