Cole Phillips Inks Publishing Deal

Eclipse Music Publishing, a division of Eclipse Music Group, has signed Nashville native songwriter, producer, and musician Cole Phillips to a worldwide publishing deal, further strengthening the company’s diverse roster of creators.

As a guitarist, Phillips has toured internationally as a sideman for major artists including Gretchen Wilson, Colt Ford, and Canaan Smith, experiences that continue to inform his work as a songwriter and producer with a performer’s perspective.

His credits span across various genres such as Country, Pop, and EDM, with projects collectively amassing hundreds of millions of streams. Notable collaborations include work with Clever, Colt Ford, Scotty Hasting, and more.

“Cole is the kind of creative force we’re always looking for. He understands songs at their core—how they’re written, how they’re produced, and how they translate to an audience,” shares Penny Gattis, Partner at Eclipse Music Group.

Courtney Crist, Vice President of Eclipse Publishing, adds, “He can take on any role in the writer room. Not only is he an incredible talent, but he’s also the kind of person everyone wants to be around. We’re thrilled to welcome him to the Eclipse Music Group family.”

“I’m grateful to join the Eclipse family,” says Phillips. “Their reputation for championing writers and building careers is second to none, and I’m excited to work with such an amazing publishing team. Big thanks to Penny, Courtney, Anna, and Kurt for their belief in me and for welcoming me so fully into the fold.”
