David Adam Byrnes has signed an exclusive publishing deal with Reviver Publishing.
In 2020, Byrnes released his album Neon Town and has earned four back-to-back No. 1 singles in Texas while also popping up on Wide Open Country‘s Three Acts To Watch In 2021 list and securing performance spots at the Key West Songwriter’s Festival.
“David Adam Byrnes has proven himself a strong songwriter with depth, creativity, and an ability to bring his music all the way to No. 1,” says David Ross, president and founder of Reviver Entertainment Group. “I’m over the top with excitement and couldn’t be happier welcoming David into the Reviver Publishing family.”
“I’m excited to start this new chapter of my life and career with a new team who truly has the same vision for my career that I do,” shares Byrnes. “I really love the ideas, approach, and mindset David Ross has towards the music business and how we fit into it. I’ve also always admired Clay Myers and wanted to work with him since the first time we met, so I’m excited to finally have that opportunity and learn from him and David.”

Chris Linton Band Inks With Chayne Gang Records
Chris Linton Band
The Chris Linton Band has signed a recording and distribution deal with Chayne Gang Records. A new affiliate of Average Joe’s Entertainment, Chayne Gang Records made their debut in May 2021 under the leadership of Steven “LoKey” Brown.
The band, originally from Harrodsburg, Kentucky, has a sound that has been compared to that of Jamey Johnson and Hank Williams Jr. Linton is no stranger to the music scene, and has regularly sold out shows across Kentucky, including multiple sell-outs at the famous Austin City Saloon.
“This is one of the few unsigned bands I have seen live that are actually better than a professional recording. The energy they bring to the stage provides their fans with something that just cannot be captured even by the best producer,” shares Matt Kelly, VP of A&R. “Chayne Gang is very excited to have these guys on our team and look forward to getting their music out to the masses.”
The band is currently working on new music with releases planned in the coming months.
