Natalie Hemby, who has written hits for Miranda Lambert, Little Big Town, and Lady A, has signed an exclusive co-publishing deal with CTM Outlander.

She is CTM Outlander’s first Nashville signing, but likely won’t be its last, says CEO André de Raaff, who previous founded Imagem, which sold to Concord in 2017 for more than $500 million. Hemby’s track record is impressive on its own, but he adds, “What made a real big difference for us is that she’s very successful in Nashville, but she’s also successful outside of Nashville and her big ambition is to remain successful in Nashville, but become more successful internationally.
In addition to the go-forward portion of the deal, CTM Outlander has purchased 50% of Hemby’s writer’s share from her past works, with Hemby retaining the other half. “I think [that] is very good because that keeps her involved in what we are doing because we don’t want to work only the futures, we want to work the catalog, of course,” de Raaff says.
This is the fourth deal CTM Outlander has made since Netherlands-based publishing firm CTM and Outlander Fund, launched by Dallas-based intellectual and property lawyer and investor Les Ware, formed CTM Outlander earlier this year.
