UMG Nashville reveals the signing of artist/songwriter/ producer Hueston to newly created Silver Wings Records. Silver Wings Records is a distribution arm and independent artist services, powered by Virgin Music Group’s global distribution network created to support independent artists and creators.  Silver Wings Records creates custom campaign services for independent artists offering a variety of options for developing and enhancing campaigns.

“The independent artist community has rapidly grown and been a driving force in expanding the creative growth culture in Nashville’s music and entertainment,” says UMG Nashville Chair andamp; CEO, Cindy Mabe. “Universal Music Group Nashville has seen the need to provide resources to grow, sustain and support the independent creator community. Once I met Hueston and felt his music and what he was striving to do as an independent artist, I knew it was time to build the investment. Hueston and his team of collaborators have vision and direction and are building their own path around his soulful emotional voice and his ability to mix darkness and light into his gift of music. It changes people. Like Hueston’s music, Silver Wings Records is intended to bridge and open the world of creativity to Nashville collaborators and country music artists.”

“I’m looking forward to starting this next chapter of my career with the team at UMG Nashville,” shares Hueston. “Cindy, Charlene, Chelsea and Hannah saw the vision from the very first meeting and I automatically knew it was going to be a great fit.”

Cory Hueston has lived music success as the front man of indie/alternative-duo, The Blancos, but he felt a call pulling him in a different direction. Now, via his own label Young Hueston, LLC and distribution by Silver Wings Records, he shares his emotional storytelling, skilled guitar, and soul-stirring vocals as solo artist Hueston. His music translates easily to audience interpretation while still speaking so directly to Hueston’s own professional and personal journeys overcoming depression and addictions, and turning over a new chapter in life. Hueston is an artist who leans on his songwriting and uses his music to speak his emotions, sometimes dark, sometimes provocative, always soulful. New music can be expected from Hueston in the coming weeks.

Silver Wings Records has its own staff overseen by Charlene Bryant, UMGN’s SVP of Business Development andamp; Strategy. With Bryant’s track record of success spanning across Country, Hip-Hop, and Christian music, and her understanding of both the artists’ needs and the industry’s ever-changing landscape, she and her team are set to help merge worlds and cultures, and to help further UMG Nashville’s commitment to growth and expansion.
