HARLAN HOWARD SONGS, INC. SIGNS BRANDON RHYDER TO EXCLUSIVE SONGWRITING AGREEMENT

Melanie Smith-Howard, President and CEO of Harlan Howard Songs, Inc. announced today the signing of Brandon Rhyder to a songwriting contract with her venerable publishing house. “The first time I heard Brandon’s music, I knew he was special. His songs showcase a distinctive songwriting voice, yet he’s really honest and relatable. I was instantly drawn to him,” says Melanie Smith-Howard.

Harlan Howard Songs, Inc. is among the most respected publishing houses in the industry yet the addition of songwriters to her small roster is rare. “We never wanted to be the largest publishing company on the block, says Howard. “We did, however, want to be among the most respected. Brandon fits in perfectly.”
