UMPG has announced that they have signed rising talent Catie Offerman to an exclusive global publishing deal.

The Nashville-based songwriter has collaborated with accomplished artists such as Liz Rose, Natalie Hemby, Nicolle Galyon, Brett James, Chase McGill and Ryan Beaver among others.

Said Offerman: “Most girls dream about their wedding day, but I always dreamed about the day I signed a publishing deal! I am so excited to be a part of the UMPG family. Universal is one of the most impactful companies in music. UMPG instantly felt like home to me, and I’m especially grateful to UMPG Nashville A&R Travis Gordon for ‘getting’ it! I love the whole team so much and can’t wait for this next chapter!”

UMPG Nashville EVP/GM Kent Earls on Offerman: “Catie’s songs captured all of us at UMPG after our first meeting. They draw you in and give a great definition of who she is a songwriter and artist. We’re beyond excited she chose UMPG to be her publishing home and look forward to delivering strong creative opportunities that support her journey as a songwriter.”
