Not content with the old-school Nashville game plan, Big Loud Management has rewritten the rulebook by focusing on artist development since 2011. Founded by songwriter Craig Wiseman, producer Joey Moi with artist managers Kevin “Chief” Zaruk and Seth England, the first act the partners signed was an aspiring Country duo called Florida Georgia Line – now one of the most successful in history – and since then the company has pushed the industry’s cutting edge even further. The Big Loud Management roster now includes Florida Georgia Line (9.3 Billion streams, 33.6 Million tracks and 4.6 Million albums sold worldwide, including Country’s only DIAMOND-certified single, “Cruise,” which is now 11X PLATINUM), as well as breakout talent HARDY (THIS OLE BOY EP, WHERE TO FIND ME EP) and romantically-charged hitmaker Chris Lane (PLATINUM “Take Back Home Girl” featuring Tori Kelly, GOLD #1 “Fix,” and “For Her”). The lineup also features Canadian powerhouses MacKenzie Porter and Dallas Smith, as well as riser Sean Stemaly and crowd-rocking chart-topper Morgan Wallen (PLATINUM “Up Down” featuring Florida Georgia Line, PLATINUM “Whiskey Glasses,” and GOLD “The Way I Talk”). Big Loud Management partnered with Maverick in 2017 and has since achieved unprecedented crossover success, including the 8X PLATINUM 2019 BMI Pop Song of the Year and record holder for most consecutive weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, Bebe Rexha’s “Meant to Be” (featuring Florida Georgia Line).
