With So Many Hits, It's No Wonder BMG Re-Signed Hillary Lindsey

Hit songwriter Hillary Lindsey has penned some of the biggest songs in country music including "American Honey," "This One's for the Girls," and "Jesus Take the Wheel," to name a few.

According to Music Row Magazine:
"Songwriter Hillary Lindsey has re-signed her administration agreement with BMG Chrysalis US."
Admin deals are here to stay for top songwriters. Next generation administration tools like those used by BMG Chrysalis' Income Tracking Team and Kobalt Music's Kobalt System and dashboard for artist and label services continue to push the envelope. These innovations are great for providing transparent royalty collection for musical work copyright owners, as well as, sound recording copyright owners. But, how will these innovations shape the role of music publishers in the future? For hit songwriters who don't need much more than a place to send royalty checks, what will drive songwriters to choose one publishing administrator over another?

Look for future posts further exploring this topic.
