Maren Morris signs with WME
by ROSTR
Maren Morris signed with Kirk Sommer of WME for touring.
Maren Morris is managed by Red Light Management/HOUSE OF 42, released by Sony Music Entertainment & published by Universal Music Publishing Group.
Maren Morris is a Grammy-winning American singer-songwriter known for blending country music with elements of pop, R&B, and hip-hop. Born in Arlington, Texas in 1990, Morris started performing publicly as a child and released three independent albums before moving to Nashville in her late teens to pursue country music. Her major-label debut album "Hero" (2016) was a critical and commercial success, featuring hit singles like "My Church" and "80s Mercedes."
Morris has since collaborated with artists like Zedd, Grey, and John Mayer, and has won multiple Country Music Association and Academy of Country Music Awards. In 2023, she announced her departure from country music with the release of her "The Bridge" EP, citing a desire to challenge the industry's lack of diversity and inclusion. With her unique sound and outspoken persona, Maren Morris has established herself as one of the most prominent and influential voices in contemporary country music.
