Universal Music Publishing Nashville has signed songwriter, artist and producer Marc Scibilia to an exclusive global publishing agreement.
Scibilia has co-written songs recorded by singer-songwriter Ben Rector, pop artist Lennon Stella, and rappers Jim Jones and Rick Ross. His chart-topping hit with DJ Robin Schulz, “Unforgettable,” has been certified Gold and is currently boasting more than 75 million streams on Spotify alone.
Scibilia has also made a name for himself in the sync community. Some of his successes include a Woody Guthrie cover of “This Land Is Your Land,” which was used in Jeep’s 2015 Super Bowl Commercial and became the most Shazamed moment of the Super Bowl. “How Bad We Need Each Other” was featured on Samsung’s “Stay Together, Stay Apart” global campaign in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. “On The Way” was synced on the “Summer of Jeep” campaign, which also featured Scibilia himself in the ad.
Of the deal, Roxy King, Director of A&R at UMPG Nashville, shares, “Marc has put in the work to create music and relationships that are unparalleled. I’m confident that Marc’s talent, coupled with UMPG’s hands-on, global approach, will cause big waves throughout Nashville and the music industry at-large.”
“I’m thrilled to be joining the UMPG family for the next chapter of my career,” Scibilia adds. “In just the first few months, the team has proven to be a powerful force in opening doors and finding new opportunities for my music.”
