Will Jones Signs With WME For Global Representation

Nashville-based singer/songwriter Will Jones signs with WME, the world’s leading entertainment agency, for global representation across all areas. 
 
Jones, a Blue Ridge Mountains native, blends Applachian soul with outlaw grit and timeless storytelling into a sound all his own. His sound is a love letter to the past and a firm handshake to the future – carving his own lane in country music.
 
“Will’s talent, work ethic, and musicianship is exceptional. His future is bright, and we’re excited to have him at WME and be a part of his journey,” shares WME’s Carter Green and Jay Williams. “The future of country music is in good hands!” 
 
Additionally, Jones has signed with Lady Luck Songs and Blue Harbor Music for publishing and artist development. 
 
“Lady Luck Songs and Blue Harbor Music are thrilled to team up and welcome powerhouse writer/artist Will Jones to our publishing and artist development roster,” states Steve Markland (Blue Harbor Music) along with Kim Penz and Cliff Audretch of Lady Luck Songs. “Will’s a true triple-threat with big things on the horizon. We can’t wait for the world to hear and see what all he has coming down the pike!”
 
The announcement comes in conjunction with the release of his new song “Lonesome Dove,” which he wrote with Davis Corley, Lee Starr and Dan Wilson. “Lonesome Dove” arrives tomorrow, July 11. Presave here.
 
“‘Lonesome Dove’ came from imagining what Gus McCrae might’ve said to Lorie Darlin’ in that saloon,” said Jones of the song that’s produced by Cliff Audretch and Rob McNelley. “ It’s a lighthearted take on the idea that not everyone’s chasing forever – sometimes it’s enough to share a moment, even if it only lasts the length of a song.”
 
“Will’s been doing the work his whole life. He’s got the raw talent, work ethic and personality for longevity,” John Cantu of Red Light Management states. “We have a great team in place and a clear vision. Proud to be a part of building what’s next for him.”
