River House Artists, in partnership with Sony Music Publishing Nashville, have announced the renewal of their worldwide publishing agreement with Dan Alley.

Originally from Miamisburg, Ohio, Alley moved to Nashville in 2018 at just 21 years old to pursue a career in songwriting. Since then, he has earned cuts with prominent artists including Luke Bryan, Luke Combs, Lainey Wilson, Jon Pardi, Hudson Westbrook, Braxton Keith, Joe Nichols, Craig Morgan, Randall King, Austin Snell, Drake Milligan, Tyce Delk and more.

Recently celebrating his first No. 1 hits with Luke Bryan’s “Country Song Came On,” followed by Hudson Westbrook’s breakout track “House Again,” he has quickly built a reputation as one of Nashville’s most promising songwriters. Continuing his remarkable run, he has been seeing success with Luke Combs’ “Be By You,” which has been gaining momentum on the Billboard Hot 100, where it recently broke into the Top 20. Beyond his success as a songwriter for others, Alley is set to release his own project, Keepin’ On, on September 4.

“We couldn’t be prouder to continue our journey with Dan. He is one of the most talented songwriters in Nashville, but what makes him truly special is the person he is and the passion he brings to his craft every single day,” shares Zebb Luster of River House Artists.

“Dan is an exceptional songwriter, and it has been amazing to see his hard work translate into such incredible success. We’re thrilled to continue working with River House to champion Dan’s talent and look forward to all that’s ahead,” adds Rusty Gaston of Sony Music Publishing Nashville.
