Songwriter, composer and artist H. Jack Williams has inked exclusive representation deals with three Nashville entities: Anthem Entertainment for sync placements and publishing, Copperline Entertainment in conjunction with Sony Orchard for global digital music distribution, and B! Noticed Public Relations for publicity.
The native of Eureka, Florida, began writing songs shortly after his 1971 discharge from the US Marines Force Recon. Years later, with a $50 loan and a one-way bus ticket, Williams landed in Nashville and signed a publishing deal with The Oak Ridge Boys, who soon recorded his songs “Seasons” and “Everybody Wins.” Williams had his first major hit co-writing Gregg Allman’s “Just Before The Bullets Fly.”

Williams returned to Nashville in 2005, landing cuts with artists such as Montgomery Gentry, Black Stone Cherry, and on the Miracles From Heaven Soundtrack. He signed a publishing deal with Lynn Gann Music Enterprises in 2015, scoring more cuts, including Aaron Pritchett’s Top 10 hit “Dirt Road In ‘Em.”
Williams has also worked closely with Kevin Costner & Modern West, who has recorded two of Williams’ songs, including the Top 20 hit “Love Shine.” An Academy award-winning actor, Costner has also cut five of Williams’ tracks for his the TV series’ Tales From Yellowstone soundtrack.
