WCM GETS TO THE "CORE" WITH MCFARLAND

WCM and The Core Entertainment have signed a joint global publishing deal with blossoming singer-songwriter Hannah McFarland.

WCM Nashville Manager, A&R Bryce Sherlow called her "an incredibly insightful and talented songwriter" with "unique talent." The Core Entertainment co-bosses Chief Zaruk and Simon Tikhman added that McFarland's "star is so bright already."

The Alabama native moved to Nashville in 2016 with dreams of having a music career. She has since opened for country stars such as Kelsea Ballerini, Old Dominion and Travis Tritt. Last month, Zach Bryan brought her onstage in her home state to perform Kacey Musgraves’ part of the chart-topping duet “I Remember Everything.”
